Adolescence in Dobermanns


You've made it through the puppy stage with your Dobermann and now things seem to be turning into chaos! What has happened to all that early work that you put in? Have you suddenly seen an uptick in unwanted behaviours that have not been an issue until now?

You are not alone in your confusion and dismay! Many owners of Dobermanns discover as their puppy enters the "teen" phase that his attention span decreases or his reactivity increases, and sometimes even both! Even if your dog is "technically" beyond the teen age, she may not have had a secure start to life and is now displaying some of these issues for you. Perhaps you are dealing with a rescue pup that has had a lot of upheaval in their life.

We have designed this course especially for you! Whether a true teen or a teen in behaviour expression only, there is hope to be had for your training struggles. Our course will walk you through the steps to create a training environment that your dog and you can thrive in! We provide you with clear & concise help with plenty of video support so that you can set up management to help your wild child focus, calm their over-stimulated nervous system and introduce them to training that will spark their interest by addressing their breed needs.

We aim to help you grow your relationship with your dog and have that relationship be a stepping stone to behavioural changes that will last a lifetime.

Navigating through this stage in a positive and supportive manner at a pace that their changing minds and bodies can handle is key to seeing progress over struggle and will support them into becoming a wonderful stable adult that will be a lovely member of your family for years to come.
