If you are a member of Facebook please join our Leicester and Leicestershire Animal Aid Association Group.  You can post your questions in the 'discussion' option at the top of the toolbar.  Danni Damon, a clinical animal behaviourist, BSc (Hons), Dip.CABT, member of ABTC and CAPBT, will answer your questions on the topic of dog training and behaviour.  Danni is a very experienced and qualified animal behaviourist and very kindly donates her time to assist staff at LAA with the training and behavioural plans for dogs at our Centre.

There are many people who call themselves trainers and behaviourists and we recommend you contact a reputable training club or rescue centre such as LAA who can refer you to the appropriate person or organisastion.  Some trainers/behaviourists are using outdated and harsh methods and training aids which are unnecessary and could inflict pain or discomfort, cause anxiety and distress to your pet and may exacerbate the original problem and lead to further problems.
