Better Focus Makes Better Dogs
There are plenty of things that might distract your dog — new people, sights, sounds, and other animals, to name a few. But distractions can also cause certain dogs a lot of stress and anxiety, and your dog might easily get overwhelmed. These reactions might trigger a lot of bad behaviors and become quite difficult for pet parents to manage.
Proper training can help your dog learn to focus on what’s important in the face of potential distractions. Sit Means Sit’s certified training experts are the best at combining proper behavior modification with plenty of patience and support to get stellar results. Using consistency, mental enrichment, focus readjustment and other strategies, we’ll help your dog hone in on the important things and become more responsive to your commands, even in distracting situations.
Why Some Dogs Get Highly Distracted
Some dogs are highly distractible as a result of genetics or breed traits. However, a variety of external factors might also influence their ability to focus, including:
- A lack of basic training
- High energy and hyperactivity
- Understimulation (boredom) or overstimulation
- Fear or anxiety
- Sensory sensitivity
Sit Means Sit Charleston has helped dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities overcome distractedness and build new levels of comfort and focus.
