Buster Brains – 5 year old male Soft Coat Wheaten Terrier

Buster Brains is a 5 years old Soft Coat Wheaten Terrier who is very intelligent and affectionate, he is brilliant with children and loves everyone he meets. His very pretty soft coat is easily brushed and he stands nicely to be bathed. Buster Brains is absolutely brilliant with adults and especially with children. He needs a dog handler with a lot of patience as he lacks social skills with dogs and barks furiously at other dogs when he is on the lead. He is fostered in a pack of 10 dogs and is very happy with them – in fact he is very happy once he has been introduced to a dog – he never fights but he is rude and bad mannered resulting in him running up to dog and barking in their face which some dogs mis-interpret as aggression. This behavior is due to nerves and lack of socialization as a puppy, and can be managed using distraction techniques and clicker training.

We are training him using clicker training to ignore dogs on lead for a reward in order to reduce his anxiety and for him to think that meeting dogs on a lead means he gets a nice treat. The owner will have to continue his training. This dog need a very experienced owner with a lot of time and patience who will seek the support of a professional behaviorist to help him overcome his issues.
