So proud of my dog today. We've been working on her reactivity to other dogs and people for months now and today we went to one of the less crowded and more open-spaced walking trails. We were meeting up with my sister-in-law who got a puppy a couple months ago and has been wanting them to meet for a while.
She didn't react to a single human other than a firmer tail wag and happy ears, including the children! (She absolutely hates kids, even more than she hates men, which is saying something.)
When it came to my sister-in-law's dog, they both lunged at each other after a brief sniff, but she only had hackles raised for a moment and calmed down when the other dog moved away. They even were able to play for a bit by the lake and she did gentle corrections of the other dog instead of snapping and snarling when she got jumped on for the 100th time.
I know it's a journey and she'll likely have some bad days here and there, particularly if we visit her apartment and are in an enclosed space, but I'm so proud of her.
Hi! I really enjoy reading about the work you're doing with Rory and preventing reactivity with her.
Do you have any suggestions or thoughts on working on reactivity in older dogs? I have a 10 yr old that a farm dog for most of her life and has always been anxious and reactive around other dogs and some people. She's been around other dogs on trails and we live in an apartment complex with other dogs, but she seems to be getting more reactive as she gets older. I've debating looking for a trainer to work with but I also worry that it won't do much since she's been like this for so long.
Hi! I'm not a trainer so I would highly recommend talking with someone qualified who can look at your situation and make recommendations based on your specific dog.
Here are some thoughts based on my experience - this is not a substitution for talking to a trainer.
In a culture addicted to reaction, calm can look like disengagement. What are we actually uncomfortable with? https://dualisticunity.com/why-calm-is-only-respected-when-its-convenient/
thinking about reactive dogs as aversive stimuli, that is: when a person takes their dog for a walk, and their dog reliably screams bloody murder when they see other dogs, a previously neutral stimulus (other dogs) is now associated with something viscerally unpleasant (my dog screaming!!!)
and so the learner (the person) is now predisposed to all kinds of weird behavior: lashing out at either their own dog OR the other dog (the predictor of the aversive stimuli); avoiding certain locations or times; carrying massive amounts of shame and resentment about their dog; avoiding walking the dog entirely; applying their own series of aversives to the dog to try to suppress the screaming (...never mind that they are themselves under a P+ learning paradigm and it's clearly not making anyone feel better...)
no conclusion here just the thing turning over in my brain today

i tell my clients frequently that reactivity is not linear, that it's often two steps forward one step back
anyway we're currently in the 'step back' part of the cycle so i'm mopey
