Let's dive a little deeper into fear.
08/08/24 • 25 min
Fear is a complex problem. It has multiple causes, can be easily "installed" and is notoriously difficult to resolve. It can regress without warning even after extensive work and may never be fully "fixed".
In the past the training environment hasn't always done what is best for fearful dogs. But there is hope both for the dogs who are faced with a world they find difficult to navigate and the people supporting them. So this week we're going to talk more about what causes fear, the misconceptions and myths surrounding it and how to best help our four legged friends to overcome it.

A catch up on Sophie from Romania with Rory Cellan Jones
Here it is! Our big catch up with Rory Cellan Jones on how Sophie is doing following my visit to Diane, Rory and Sophie. It's been roughly eighteen months since Sophie arrived in West London to start her new life as part of the Coyle-Cellan Jones household and she has made huge progress in that time.
In this candid chat with Rory we talk about the realities of living with a fearful dog and how social media can sometimes give a misleading sense of things.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Rory for taking time to talk to us with such honesty about the impact things have had on both Sophie and her people as they prepare to go on their first holiday together.
