Dog Behaviorist

A term used by professional academics and veterinarians used to describe a professional who has a sound understanding of dog behavior and who is involved in modifying and managing the behavior of them in relation to specific attributes such as aggression, timidity, phobias, anxiety of separation and other obsessive- compulsion behaviors. Most dog behaviorists develop a sound understanding of dog behavioral attributes either through formal education, personal research or through experience. The skills of dog handling can only be exercised when there is good interaction between humans and dogs. Dog Behaviorists exploit their knowledge and understanding of the dogs to channelize their behavior in the proper direction. Usually they look to change the behavior of dogs in the original setting through observation and detection of the problems. Food and praises are used as the primary source of motivation for dogs. Likewise there are other aversive and coercive tools such as head collars, electric collars and correction collars that can be used to change the behavior of dogs.
