Dog Behavourist

[josaphine32]

You may or remember that I posted on here nearly 2 years ago about an 8 week old cockapoo that I aquired, and was very aggressive, well after many classes, and no improvement we decided to get a specialist out, we are working on a diagnoses of a gene missing from the poodle gene and cocker spaniel rage, the behavourist trained my old dog 17 years ago and has a very succesfull reputation, I do trust her, anyone know any dog with the above conditions? either cocker or poodle problems. Thanks

a gene missing from the poodle gene? who suggested this?

[friedgreentomato]

Surely the only way you would know a gene is missing is via blood tests etc

[josaphine32]

Thinking about it, she did not say missing gene, she said there was a faulty gene in poodles that is hereditary when mixing breeds. I am getting abit worried now, nin, was so relaxed and un anxious nervous and non agressive, I am feeling abit worried now, thanks though to both,

Behavourist? Never heard this one before :)

faulty poodle gene that only shows when crossbreeding? new one on me....is this person a menenber of the APBT (Association of Pet Behaviour Trainers) What methods does she use?

[RATTER15]

Sounds a bit far fetched to me!

The Cocker Spaniel rage is explained here but as to whether your dog has it or not how would she know.

I want to put the link up now, she does heiki training, eft/matrix training, animal comunication, I am on a tablet, so limited to see all, you lot are good but I am worried now, how can I put a web site on a forum and know there wont be a troll about, the diary she showed us was chocca, and she said she would not take anything else on, 100 pound for an hour and half, the strange thing was, nin was so relaxed when she was there, and went to lost when she left,

These are some of the things she is associated or have qualifications in, Apdt/eft/aamet/iabtc, also kennel club health concern, if this makes sence to you, thanks.

whose website do you want to put up? if its the trainers, why is that a problem, she can be found by anyone on google with basic info.
