Our chess is a cute dog - but extremely anxious. He has fears of people, noises and different situations. We took him from a shelter, and in fact until he came to us, he had almost no exposure to humans, but only to the company of dogs. When we took him, he insisted on escaping under the bed or the sofa, and while we believed that "it will pass with time" the actual situation only got worse. Noga helped us and chess to face our fears, to learn to look at every scary thing and discover that it also has the potential for something good - for treats, snacks, positive reinforcement and demonstrations of warmth and love. Noga equipped us with clear rules and simple solutions to situations we might get into. Through simple training, exercises and games that improve chess and our self-confidence, it is possible to discover that there is no contradiction between discipline and fun. The difference between the chess of today and the chess of then is like the difference between day and night - or between black and white. Noga understands dogs, and knows how to read (and translate) their body language and communicate with them, but no less important - she also understands humans, and knows when the dog owner himself needs a little "positive reinforcement", when we are skeptical and when we need to take a step back. We highly recommend it to all dogs’ parents - with or without problems and anxieties. Thank you very much
