This talk focuses on deconstructing features of resource-guarding behaviour in family pet settings, using case-study illustrations. A practical approach is taken where this impacts upon multiple dog households and focuses on how resource guarding behaviour can be worked with positively.
Key learning objectives:
- What is a ‘resource’ to a dog, and how to identify these
- The risk assessment within resource guarding behaviours
- What is meant by ‘risk of winning’?
- How can other dogs in the household be managed around such an issue
- How owners could create, maintain, or worsen the issue
- Escalation and the frustration loop
- Safety and training measures – are they a ‘fix’ for the behaviour?
