Information, Education & Advice - helping dogs in need
EDDR often receives enquires from dog owners and other canine groups requesting help and advice for their pet dogs, some who are new additions to the family or for specific dog(s) in their care who are in need of extra training support. Finding advice for your dog is not always as straightforward as it first appears, there is a wealth of information available out there, but some of it is not at all helpful for your dog or you.
Our involvement with rescue dogs and dogs with special needs has led us to seek out good informative advice, advice which is not overly complicated, but practical and most of all helpful and kind to your dog. We shall be adding useful fact sheets to this section, if you need help with finding a behavioral advisor or trainer near to you-please contact us
Dog training and behaviour modification techniques have changed greatly over the past few years, EDDR supports kind, reward-based methods. We do not advocate the use of choke/check chains or physical punishment.
