Monique, Jill and Hayley discuss training resource guarding, and separation anxiety, and ways to best avoid both from occurring. The change in Golden Retrievers locally, with resource guarding, and their inability to 'do aggression well' is touched upon. The dear friend that helped me out with the one resource guarder was Cheryl Randolph at Sooke Harbour Pet Resort. She made sure he was safe but limited his fun so that I was able to rescue him, and boost my relationship ahead on the fast track. Every trainer in this profession needs friends like her! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063494323600 If anyone would like to book a camping site so that Jill can yell at you if you touch her blackberries, you can find more information here. https://www.portaliceoceanfrontrv.com/
