BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION IS NOT A QUICK SOLUTION. It’s a long-term treatment, but if the modification methods are correctly executed, they can relieve the dog’s anxiety and fear. To ensure success, it might be a good idea to consult a veterinarian specialising in behavioural medicine before beginning.

REWARDING THE DOG for relaxed behaviour in general has been shown to be effective. Teach the dog to relax on cue using the SSL (sit / stay / look) relaxation exercise combined with a lot of treats, and a soft mat to create a quiet, calm, safe place for your dog.

Behaviour modification methods are usually effective when conducted correctly. Remember to stay calm and never punish the dog for showing anxious behaviour. Watch your dog and learn what kind of behaviour calms him.
