Gulliver found his way to us after life in his previous home was not as harmonious as he had imagined when he was taken in many years ago. Initially small issues that many dog owners are confronted with over time quickly escalated and one or two mosquitoes developed into a highly reactive elephant that put further cohabitation to the test.


Many behaviors become established over time, both in the dog and its owners. Negative experiences create tension and fear, which reinforces a pessimistic expectation that makes it difficult to stay motivated and optimistic during training. Now the black male dog is getting an absolute "reset" and we are starting his journey together into a carefree future.


In the animal shelter, there was little to see of the insecure but also explosive character of the exciting breed mix. The bright male quickly settled in and got used to his caregivers. With our relaxed but determined demeanor, we were able to quickly convince Gulliver of our leadership qualities. The sensitive guy has once again shown what a good sense he has for the emotions of his two-legged friends. Whether tension or relaxation - Gulliver reads his counterpart like a book and clearly reflects his emotional state. On walks you notice that good preparatory work has already been done with him. If he is led consistently, he walks relaxed next to you on a loose leash and voluntarily orientates himself towards his owner - a good foundation for further training.


We are currently practicing regularly on the topic of dog encounters, but he is also making rapid progress there and scores points with his responsiveness in stressful situations. If you give him too much leeway outside, he likes to let things go his way. Be it pedestrians who are fixated on and barked at from a distance, or strange dogs who are also barked at. That's why it's important to have the right standing and to recognize and manage critical situations early on.


Gulliver currently lives in a shared apartment with two other dogs of the same species. Living together is going smoothly, but you have to keep an eye on him so that he doesn't see his caregiver as a resource for other dogs - for example, if you pet another dog near him. If you don't set clear boundaries for him by sending him away, he would really hurt the other four-legged friend. But Gulliver is easy to interrupt verbally and now prefers to go into reverse.
