Almost all puppies exhibit some kind of behavior problems that you have to deal with at one time or other. Some dogs might take longer to be toilet trained while some might have a terrible chewing habit that leaves all your favorite objects in tatters. But sometimes, your puppy might have some behavior problems that are so severe which cannot be dealt with by yourself and need the assistance of a professional dog trainer. If your dog shows such sever problems, it is better to consult a professional as soon as possible.

I personally had to face some serious behaviour problem with my adopted pooch. Most often shelter puppies are abandoned once or even multiple times and some are even abused by their owners. This is one of the reasons for the behavior problems arising in adopted puppies.

In my case the problem with my adopted puppy was based on trust issues. Though the initial days with my pooch went smooth sailing, suddenly she developed some serious behavioral problems.

If I left for even five minutes, she would literally go crazy. She would run around, howling, running into things, peeing on the floor, and acting out in any way she could. It was a serious dog behavior problem because I lived with house mates. They don’t want to have to put up with my dog’s insane behavior.

I tried a few dog training tips, but they didn’t work out that well. For a while, I would leave for only five minutes at a time, But I was unable to get her to adjust to me being gone for longer. Finally, I called a professional dog trainer.

I repeated the same phrase every time I left to come right back in. I slowly increased the time I was out of the apartment till I reached an hour. Though it took me several weeks and tested my patience to no end, finally I was able to make my pooch trust me and now she is one of the best behaved dogs in my neighbourhood.
