My husband and I have 3 dogs, one of which is a 6mo old Doberman puppy. I haven't had a puppy for over six years, so we really struggled with all those puppy behaviors when we added a third dog to our family. To be honest, we felt completely overwhelmed, especially because this puppy lacked the confidence that our other two dogs have, and this caused a lot of emotional issues to come out through his behavior. A puppy is supposed to be a fun and exciting thing, but to us he was a terror who was quickly driving us crazy! Thankfully I found Lynn with Happy Waggers! She has helped me to work with my puppy to build his confidence and guide him toward appropriate behaviors. Already I have seen a big change in our pup; he doesn't hide behind me anymore when strangers approach, and he even leaps into his crate when it's time for me to leave. I feel very confident in using her advice and training techniques because they work!
