Car Reactivity The Family Pupz Podcast

- Pets & Animals
Today's Topic: Living with and taking care of a reactive dog can be difficult enough when they're inside the home, or out and about in the world, with you, but what if your dog is reactive INSIDE THE CAR? This type of reactivity can create unique, unpredictable and potentially dangerous situations for even the most empathetic and diligent of dog parents. That's why we invited certified professional dog trainer, the owner and head trainer at Sit Pretty Behavior & Training, and the creator of Chaos In The Car, a webinar designed for pet parents whose dog is growling, barking, lunging, or otherwise behaving chaotically when in the vehicle, Vanessa Charbonneau, to the pod, to discuss what car reactivity is, and how it is different from generalized fear/anxiety around the car experience, why she thinks "reactivity" is a misnomer, the unique challenges of dealing with car reactivity compared to other forms of reactivity, management strategies to help deal with car reactivity, her typical force-free training plan for car reactivity, and so much more!
Guest Bio: Vanessa Charbonneau is a registered veterinary technologist and multi-certified dog trainer, who specializes in working with dogs with fear, reactivity and aggression. She works tirelessly to educate dog owners on the power of positive reinforcement training, while using humane, science-based training methods. She is one of the first trainers in Northern British Columbia to become accredited by the BC SPCA’s AnimalKind program with her business Sit Pretty Behavior & Training. Vanessa lives in Prince George, BC, with her husband, two daughters, and cattle dog mix.
