Hi Fellow-Trainers,
I am pleased to inform the team that I have created support for our training group. Let's use this support, rather than the WhatsApp group, which provides trails, context and backup to our discussion in private.
Cheers

Welcome to our group Pups Trainers Academ Group! A space for us to connect and share with each other. Start by posting your thoughts, sharing media, or creating a poll.
To train for dog-to-dog aggression, we shouldn't recommend life skills group class. The rule of thumb for any dog-to-dog aggression is to determine whether the aggression case will lead to fatality.
If there's no intervention, the case can be fatal. If this is the case, management is the key to survival. And, when we can manage the case, we could have time to tailor-make the training programme.
