Behavioural issues?

Behavioural issues in pets are a result of many different factors: too little activity, homes that are not adjusted to the pet's needs, negative training techniques,... Also, animals and humans have different body language.  Misinterpretation or not seeing warning signs of your pet can result in an escalation of behaviour.  Pets and owners can suffer under these behavioural issues. Getting reliable and science-based information can help owners to understand their pet in a better way.  Positive training techniques are usually effective to alter the behaviour of your beloved pet.  After all, pets are part of the family and both owner and pet deserve an enjoyable life together.
