Dog Behaviourist Toronto

Only a handful of “REAL” Dog Behaviourists exist in Toronto, Canada, and Less than ten specialise in severe behaviours like Dog Aggression, Dogs with Severe Fears, and Phobias. If you are looking to hire a behaviourist, make sure when you are looking that they have a formal college education in behavioural psychology, the biological basis for behaviour, and learning theory… You get the idea.  A Behaviourist has at least a Master’s Degree in animal behaviour or similar. Some are Animal Behaviourists, Dog Behaviour Specialists, Dog Behavioural Therapists, and Dog Psychiatrists. Some look for specialised professionals, such as searching for and doing a google search for a Dog Aggression Behaviourist Near Me.  When calling and interviewing behaviourists, ALWAYS ask, “Do you have at least a Master’s Degree in animal behaviour.” if they say NO, find a real behaviourist. Most well-intentioned dog trainers use “dog behaviourist” as a catch-all.  Dog Trainers teach dogs obedience commands like “Come,” Sit, and” Stay.” A Dog Behaviourist looks at the cause of severe behaviours and puts together an in-depth plan to modify the dog’s behaviour. Dog Behaviourists are professionals who specialise in Dog Aggression, Dog Anxiety, Severe Separation Anxiety, and more.
