Part of a bigger picture.
Rehabilitation involves a dog’s emotional experience as well as their physical movement. The environment, unfamiliar equipment, previous experiences and current comfort can all be useful parts of the conversation about how a session is approached.
We consider body language, choice, opportunities to pause and the information you share about your dog. Where a separate clinical behaviour service is relevant, our in-house clinical behaviour page explains how that professional service connects with House of Hound.
What we consider
- Physical and emotional needs together
- Attention to body language and choice
- Consideration of the rehabilitation environment
What to expect
- Share what helps your dog feel comfortable in new settings.
- Discuss any worries about handling, equipment or appointments.
- Consider how the approach can account for your dog’s communication.
