Why Should You Attend this Seminar?

You should attend this seminar if you are worried about your dog's home-alone behaviours which may include:-

• morose or sad behaviour on leaving
• distressed behaviour while absent such as
• howling or screaming
• destructive behaviour
• escaping behaviour
• house-soiling
• self-harming tendencies
• ballistic attention seeking when you arrive

Sometimes problems like this mean your dog has a Separation Anxiety but there are also other reasons for behaviours like this.

This seminar will deal with a range of 'home alone' behaviours in detail, including behaviours often described as a Separation Anxiety.

The solutions discussed in this Pet Fix Seminar will be science-based and sensible and based on solutions Dr Cam implements for the home-alone behaviours he sees regularly, including those serious cases of separation anxiety You can be sure the information you receive will be practical and solution-based.

The information shared is very similar to the advice Dr Cam shares in his face-to-face consultations which means you will get the benefit of a personal consultation but at a fraction of the price.

You will receive worksheets so you can add your own notes and you will be emailed a detailed Separation Anxiety Pet Fix and other relative information after the seminar which will link you to further solutions on your dog’s behaviour.

Podcasts of information shared will also be sent to you after the event so you can listen to the information again to ensure you get all the good information.
