Thank You For All You Do
Hi Tom! I work as a kennel tech/trainer and I have learned so much from you and your content. I’m a new listener and trainer but a daily listener. I do have a question about my newly adopted 3 year old wheaten terrier. His name is Rascal and he was trained with us in November for his aggression (2 week board and train on the ecollar) and he didn’t show an ounce of aggression. His original owner didn’t follow any of our advice and abused him with the ecollar and physically. His owner gave him up due to his food aggression. It’s mostly around his meals or high value items like bones or grooming. Sometimes he snaps and snarls before I even put the food down (in that case he doesn’t get fed that meal). He gets fed in his kennel right now. When he growls outside of the kennel he comes towards you with his head down and continues to growl. When he’s in a mood, even looking at him makes him snarl. He has redirected on me and my poodle when being corrected with the ecollar so I have stopped correcting him that way. We have tried hand feeding but he either won’t eat it or take it and spit it out or swallow it whole and just throw it up. We did that for a month but gave up cause he wasn’t eating and I felt bad. Commands in the house often triggers him but outside of the house he’s awesome so earning his food in the house doesn’t work out. He will take treats but never take his food as a reward. It feels really random and I need help outside of using an ecollar cause using that as a correction only makes things worse. I’m staring from scratch with training to build our relationship but in the meantime how do I feed him?

The info you find on here is very helpful and most importantly, real. I like that he is honest with what input he puts out and doesn’t sugar coat anything. I think it’s important for dog owners like myself to have professionals talk about real life situations and be upfront with what we have -...Read full review »

I found Tom Davis on YouTube and have been hooked since! I’m so surprised at how easy it is to listen/watch, then go practice it on your own dogs! I recently began fostering shelter dogs, and can’t wait to start from the beginning and listen to all the podcasts!
