[Return to Opening Page] [Go to Testimonials] At Grandpaws Interactive Canine Service, we specialize in... Canine Behavioral Modification: We Will Teach you to correct or eliminate, so far as possible, any unacceptable behavior which your dog exhibits. Examples of behavior problems: barking, digging, chewing, jumping up, submissive urination, trash digging, fear/shyness, bolting through doors, house soiling, separation anxiety and any other behavior issues that you find undesirable. All plans are customized to your family’s needs and are one on one. Family involvement is imperative for program success. Call or email grandpaws@nc.rr.com today for price quotes and to schedule a private evaluation of your dog. Dog Exercise and Midday Relief: Running, more than walking your dog, creates a sustained, elevated heartbeat and a focused state-of-mind that truly relaxes his or her demeanor for the rest of the day. It's the same effect we feel after the gym or a long bike ride. Calm, collected, sleep better; and more. Our dogs are natural athletes who LOVE to run and explore their world. Unfortunately jobs, to-do lists and general end-of-day fatigue get the better of us and our beloved dogs fetch the short end of the stick. Dogs love to run and a tired dog is a good (happy!) dog!! In our exercise program we provide: Midday relief: For the working family – I come at least one time daily while you work so that your dog can get relief from his crate. This alone will relieve many non-desireable behaviors such as separation anxiety, hyper behavior and many aggressive behaviors. Provide healthy exercise to dogs of all breeds and behaviors. Provide exclusive, personal training to one dog/pack at a time. Call or email grandpaws@nc.rr.com today for price quotes and to schedule a private evaluation of your dog. Canine Aggression Rehabilitation: Is your dog aggressive toward adults, children, dogs, cats, other animals... you? Grandpaw’s offers an aggression rehabilitation program for dogs with mild to serious aggression issues. Dogs with aggression issues need specialized handling/training and James has over 14 years of experience dealing with aggressive dogs. This program takes a no-nonsense approach to dog aggression - dogs are rehabilitated, owners are trained. The main focus of this program is producing a calm, submissive dog that is no longer a danger to society, to the family or to other animals. Aggression rehabilitation includes 'superficial' obedience commands (sit, down, stay, wait, come and heel) The main focus is the dog's aggression. The Board & Train program is highly recommended for dogs with aggression issues. The reason behind this is that most aggressive/dominant dogs do not view their owners as pack leaders. If this is the case, attempting to correct aggression can cause dogs to strike out at their owners, correcting their owners the way they would correct another dog... with a bite! Dogs from 7 months to 10 years will be accepted for the board and train. Aggressive dogs go through a strenuous exercise program while at Grandpaw’s: exercise several times per day will help your dog focus his energy and release aggression in addition to intensive training. Aggressive dogs learn to be part of a 'calm and stable pack' while at Grandpaw’s. Before making the heartbreaking decision to have your aggressive dog put to death, please contact the aggression specialist, Grandpaw’s!
