The trainers here are working boarding school dogs within close proximity to their own dogs who are all in off lead drop stay.

Ranging from fear based aggression, anxiety around new people and dogs, aggressive behaviour towards other dogs on lead, to over excitement and uncontrollable behaviour when there was something more interesting to do than listen to their owners.
