SESSION 56: Aggression Cases: Sean’s approach
In episode 56, Sean responds to a question from some listeners about how he approaches aggression cases. They had a bad experience with a trainer in their local area and want to know from Sean what sorts of things they should look for in a trainer that can help them solve some aggression issues with their dog. Sean goes over his preliminary assessment, the beginning of training and a couple of the biggest mistakes people make in working with aggression issues in their dogs.
