The Behavior Files: Anxiety and Aggression - Jeanne Clune (CPDT-KA, ABCDT) Helps Taz the Min Pin and Rhys Find a Way Home
Manage episode 347081721 series 3178501
In our second Behavior Files case, Jeanne Clune and her client Rhys navigates a difficult case involving Taz, an 8 year-old miniature pinscher who suffers from both medical and behavioral issues. Little Taz exhibited a long list of behavior issues including aggression towards strangers, aggression related to handling, separation anxiety, resource guarding, reluctance walking outside, and house soiling. Due to Taz's anxiety, Rhys struggled to help Taz adapt to the urban environment of Brooklyn, NY. In addition, treating his medical issues required daily handling that could trigger bites.
The case started in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown when in-person training was not possible. How did Jeanne help Rhys and Taz through their journey by remote training? What were the keys to treating Taz's anxiety and aggressive behavior?
Jeanne's bio:
Jeanne Clune is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, Behavior Consultant, and Fear Free Certified Trainer. She sees clients in Westchester, Putnam, and Dutchess Counties.
Jeanne worked previously as the Director of Behavior and Enrichment at the SPCA of Westchester and with private clients through her own training company Joyful Pets of Westchester. During her tenure with the SPCA of Westchester, she started the Fearful Dog Rehabilitation Program and led the The Way Home Program. Through these ventures, Jeanne offered special training and enrichment to dogs with behavioral challenges that otherwise might not be considered for adoption. She successfully helped modify the behavior of dogs surrendered with separation anxiety and fear, and placed hundreds of dogs into forever homes.
Most importantly, Jeanne helps families develop a healthy and harmonious environment for training, healing and fun. She has run free community workshops in Westchester for owners with dogs with behavioral issues and is the creator of a Shelter Trainer Forum that provides trainers a platform to discuss behavior modification techniques and share their success in preparing an animal for their new homes.
Jeanne is a faculty member of CATCH Canine Trainers Academy. She is a member of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), Pet Professional Guild (PPG), and Association of Pet Dog Trainer (APDT).
Jeanne currently resides in Patterson NY with her husband and a very special canine, Hank. You might spot Jeanne and Hank working with clients on leash reactivity in the local parks. In her free time, she loves to travel, share Reiki with animals at local shelters, snorkel, hike, paddle board, practice yoga or walk in the woods in quiet admiration of our animal kingdom.
