Separation Anxiety
Do you feel guilty leaving your puppy alone? Is leaving a stress-inducing event? I can help! I am a certified separation anxiety trainer. Separation anxiety is a phobia of being left alone. Separation anxiety will not go away over time, it will get worse. This can not only be stressful for the dog but can also be stressful for the humans.
Separation anxiety like many fears may not seem logical, since you do always return. But separation anxiety like many human fears doesn't need to be logical, but it does need to be addressed. Separation anxiety often leads to destruction in the home, elimination (urination and defecation), vocalization, and more. This makes it stressful for dogs and humans alike. Let me help turn going out into a stress-free and guilt-free experience.

Gia
I contacted Tabea for helping me with Gia’s separation anxiety. I was looking for a force free training and desensitisation protocol for addressing Gia’s separation anxiety. Tabea helped me understand better Gia’s triggers and her threshold and how to work from there. We had missions throughout the week for 1 months which were very easy to follow and i loved that we tracked and documented everything in a spreadsheet. This makes everything easier but also is offering a data driven approach to training and understanding your dog’s behaviour throughout time. It was also very easy to follow and implement the desensitisation protocol by myself after I finished the 1 month training with Tabea. The training with Tabea helped me tremendously for assessing Gia’s separation anxiety.
Anfinn
We worked with Tabea to address Anfinn's separation anxiety and general fear issues. The process was straightforward and easy to follow, with a focus on keeping thorough documentation that helped us see trends in his behaviour over time, but also made me more aware of what his behaviour was telling me in general, identifying causes and triggers. Throughout the training, Tabea was always positive and encouraging, a pleasure to work with, offering great insight and suggestions, but also tailoring the experience to Anfinn's specific needs, and altering the steps in response to his level of progress and emotional state. We felt fully supported from start to finish and I feel more equipped to handle his training and give him a better quality of life.
Yoda
Tabea helped us get a handle on our dog’s separation anxiety without relying on crates or stuffed Kongs (things we’ve been taught to use in the past). Remote sessions and “homework” allowed for flexibility so we could work with our dog on our own time and track his progress. He greatly improved over several weeks and we now have the tools to help him progress.
