Jo Bosson and Anya’s anxiety journey

Wow, what an incredible experience. Hugo, our almost 2 year old golden doodle went through a traumatic incident three months ago and we were completely stumped about how to overcome his sudden fear of visitors and strangers. We had tried everything we knew of but we were making no progress.
Darran showed us how to understand our extremely fearful dog and all the ways we were accidentally reinforcing and increasing his fear levels! He is so very gentle, patient and understanding and brilliant at reading Hugo’s behaviour and emotions and THEN explaining everything so clearly. Was a real privilege to work with him and now we are sure that with time, we can get Hugo over his fears and support him to see the world isn’t such a scary place. Thanks Darran, you are awesome!
