Willy is an (almost) 5 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who did not respect me as his mom/leader and everything was always on his terms. He dictated where we went on walks and when we would turn back home. He would not come back in the house from the yard without getting a treat. He also has crazy barking episodes in the yard. He would not let me put his leash on without a game of chase. He would get into my underwear (left on the bathroom floor) and would not give it up without getting aggressive/defensive.
Willy is shy with strangers but he welcomed Kayla into our home with no problem. Kayla showed me how to address all of his issues and during our session we already saw great improvement and Willy's newfound respect for me. She was very detailed and honest about my expectations. She also provided good information on his diet.
The night after our session, I told Willy to "come" so that I could put his leash on and he came immediately and let me leash him up without his little games for the first time ever. He also started coming back inside from the yard without a treat for the first time immediately after our session. He has learned to "leave it" when I drop my underwear on the floor. He's a smart boy and I'm so glad Kayla has helped me show him I am the leader to improve our relationship and keep him more safe.
