Dolly a Staff Cross from Epping

Dolly’s Story

Dolly is an 18 month old Staff Cross, her owner Karen got her as a rescue dog when she was 9 months.

Karen contacted me because Dolly would often run off and not return when called when she was taken out on walks, this meant taking Dolly for a walk was a stressful experience. Dolly would also jump up and become over excited when people came into the house.

There was also another reason Karen and her family had become concerned about Dolly; One morning when the family had a visitor staying over, Dolly had been in the kitchen with the visitor while she was having breakfast. Dolly was being a pest, Karen’s husband called Dolly away but she ignored him, he then went to take her out by the collar (he hadn’t shouted or acted in an aggressive manner) Dolly wet herself and started shaking un-controllably.

As a result of Karen and her family’s commitment to applying Amichien Bonding, Dolly is a much happier relaxed dog that no longer jumping up at visitors when they arrive (providing they do as they are asked and ignore her).

Following two weeks without walks and the application of Amichien Bonding, Karen took Dolly out for a walk and was thrilled to report that Dolly stayed with her for the whole duration of the walk.

There have been no further occurrences of Dolly wetting herself and should a similar situation arise again they are now armed with the knowledge of how to deal with it without causing distress to Dolly.
