Vizsla Chloe

Chloe is a 5 year old Vizsla

Chloe is a happy full of life dog. Unfortunately, a lack of training in Chloe’s early life and not enough exercise have made her become very destructive: *barking, pulling on her leash, jumping and not coming when called.

But now, after just two weeks of training Chloe has made big progress.

Chloe’s owners regularly practice all of her exercises. They have changed a lot in their household – working on leadership exercises and every day they take Chloe for long walks to release her energy.

*Auditory signals (vocalizing) are those related to the sense of hearing. They generally complement and reinforce visual signals.
