Suggestion for Behaviorist with Mal/Dutch Experience

Post by brixen »

Hello all -

I am hopeful someone could provide me with a contact for someone with a extensive history with working line Mal/Dutchies. I have lived through some recent events which have left me wondering what-in-the-hell-went-wrong, and I am hopeful someone who has experienced various stages of Dutch development can help shed some light on things.

As I expect this to be a long email or phone conversation, I will compensate the trainer/behaviorist appropriately.

Suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Denver Colorado.

Unfortunately, the dog will not be able to be evaluated and I am simply looking for someone to provide with me "...ah yes, I have seen this before at age 5 to 6..." or "...you really screwed up with this area for most DS..." via a review of some long winded history.

Honestly you could tell me everything you want to about the dog and what happened and what is happening but with out seeing it and being able to ask questions it's impossible to figure out over the internet or by phone! Why isnt the dog able to be evaluated? I've dealt with super aggressive dogs and never had a problem doing an evaluation... sounds like you will need serious training!
