Let’s face it: not all dog behavior is good behavior. From barking to lunging, and every icky thing in between, leash reactivity in dogs is a common growing pain for pets and owners alike.
That’s why this week, we’re getting down to the brass tacks of what leash reactivity is and how to handle it, so that you and your furry BFF can get back to what you do best: snuggling!
Leash reactivity is when a dog reacts in an unwanted manner toward a given stimulus (ex. other dogs, cars, people, loud noises) when on a leash. The most common leash reactive behaviors include:
Leash reactivity is isolated and refers only to behaviors exhibited when the dog is on a leash.
Because the behaviors aren’t consistent, unexpected episodes of leash reactivity can often leave a pet parent feeling embarrassed, ill-equipped and out of control.
Don’t get too down in the dumps if you find yourself with a leash reactive dog. Here are some simple leash reactivitytraining steps, that owners can take to mitigate bad behavior:
If, after a few months of taking these steps, your furry friend is still exhibiting signs of leash reactivity, it may be time to call in a professional. Most importantly: if a dog makes you or someone else feel like they’re in danger, we encourage you to seek help from a trainer ASAP.
By pinpointing the underlying reason for leash reactivity, and using reactive dog training to prevent it in the future, pet parents can take leash reactivity frustration and turn it into a positive experience.
We hope this how-to guide has helped to instill leash-training confidence in all of our pet owner friends. And remember: a satiated dog is a happy dog so don’t forget the treats!
