Callie, 4, is a rescue dog and former lockdown pup. She had a difficult start to her life with four homes in 18 months. When rehomed to mum Alison she was reactive, very fearful of men and her behaviour when out walking could be unpredictable. She hadn’t been socialised with other dogs and it’s suspected she was physically abused by a man at some point.
Callie learns to trust and let go
Callie was very wary of me initially so we took things slowly. She was holding a lot of tension throughout her body and was fearful of her lumbar and head being touched so I avoided those in the early days.
Alison noticed a positive change in her behaviour very quickly and by session 3 Callie was much more relaxed with me and allowing much deeper work. Her owners say her general demeanour has improved and she is showing more confidence and less reactivity.
‘Callie’s behaviour is improving’
“Callie is more settled and less reactive with other dogs since having WEBB massage. She’s also more interactive with us at home and her independence is growing. She’ll now sit outside in the evening which she wouldn’t do before. She’s also been very good at the groomer’s and with the dog sitter. After a WEBB session she goes straight to sleep in the car – again something she never did. WEBB is helping Callie to be less fearful of life and a happier dog in general. We can see a definite improvement in her behaviour.”
