BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATON THERAPY

THE PACKHAUS PHILOSOPHY

Train the Human. Transform the Dog.

Whether your dog spends the day with us at Doggy Doolil daycare or is striving for change with PackLeader Academy, we uphold the same fundamental principles: if we exhibit calm, assertive leadership and consistency, it will foster a fulfilling and satisfying life for our dog.

BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATON THERAPY

Our training and behaviour programs at PackLeader Academy are tailored to your dog's age and temperament  — no cookie-cutter approaches. Our Specialized Puppy programs in smaller more intimate sessions sets us apart. Mimi is a seasoned and certified dog trainer and dog behaviourist, getting her certification from Master Trainer Tony Parker and Dr Karolina Westlund, Ph.D, a professor of ethology at the University of Stockholm, Sweden. She spent over 2 decades operating her dog daycare solo, with up to 25 dogs daily, and most of them started their daycare as puppies, so he knows her stuff.
 

P.S.

For an interesting Podcast (@hubermanlab) by Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., a neuroscientist and tenured professor in the department of neurobiology of ophthalmology, and also of psychiatry and behavioural sciences at Stanford School of Medicine, gives us an intensive interview with my professor, Karolina Westlund, Ph.D on Animal Behaviour sciences (www.illis.se), where they discuss dogs quite extensively. This is a very interesting and enlightening interview, well worth the watch for any dog lover. Here is the link;

Behaviour Modification Therapy

Training humans  & Transforming Dogs

While obedience training teaches commands (e.g., sit, stay, or come), behaviour modification transforms how your dog perceives and reacts to their environment.

 

Understanding the trigger and what kind of therapy is needed, is what a dog behaviourist does. We deal with rescues from abuse or abandonment, fear/aggression issues and dominant behaviour.

 

I am not certified for red line dogs (has tasted blood), as that is advanced behaviour therapy. I strive to keep dogs from going there, And the only one that can help with that is you, the dog owner. Without your support and work, the dog won't have any chance at recovery.

Street-to-Home Transition

Our Puppy rescue for the shattered soul companion program. This private session guides your puppy, aged 2 to 5 months, through essential trust and rehabilitation.

We tackles the domestication of a feral puppy who just can't seem to fit in, and we transform distracted fear induced behaviours into a focused puppy who chooses eye contact over street life, for a stress-free bond.
