When you take your dog out on leash, does it sometimes act like the Looney tunes Tasmanian devil character? Is it lunging at dogs or people? Taz, the Tasmanian devil character is often described as ferocious, short-tempered, impatient, devious but also sweet.
He is a swirling mass of emotion.
But your dog is not a cartoon character. And being the person on the end of the leash of such a dog can be embarrassing, frustrating, scary, and overwhelming.
Music is what mellows The Tazmanian Devil. But your dog will need to be mellowed with very carefully planned training. Yes, just like Taz, how your dog acts can change. Behavior is always changing, either getting better or worse but never stagnant. We can help you modify your dog’s behavior for the better.
