Sound Animals

Jeff Tinsley, the power behind Sound Animals: Dog Training and Behavior in Seattle, since 1992, is Seattle's top dog expert. Our Seattle dog owners have solved their dog problems and behavior issues for almost 30 years with their dogs. Sound Animals is trusted by veterinarians, animal rescue groups, dog breeders, and other animal professionals. What makes Sound Animal Services different? Owners like you may not always think of it that way, but dogs usually do whatever they do because it works for them. We always use fun, treats, and praise. We work with pet owners to help them better understand their animals through a variety of services: classes, private sessions and counseling. Our goal is always to increase your satisfaction and strengthen the connection between your dog(s) and you. The average dog and their most troublesome behavior Dogs are among the most dynamic and misunderstood animals on the planet. However, they still follow basic rules. What is the prescribed response to a particular stimulus? A dog may be acting out their most troublesome behavior because they are anxious or fearful. Unfortunately, these behaviors belong to a different continuum for which there are numerous problems. Some dogs may discriminate self-destructive behavior towards themselves or the dog owner’s property; some dogs unintentionally eliminate; some dogs escape or show attention-seeking behavior. Generally, the dog bites. Lastly, certain dogs don't bark; they may be afraid to do so, which is even more concerning. What may go wrong Parents adopt many training techniques and styles without knowing the reason behind them (any behavior can become a maladaptive one). Owners are often way off-base in coaching for the best results (too much correction can make a dog or any other living thing). Too often, owners are frustrated and feel abandoned by their dog with no way to reinforce a dog's behavior. Approach Jeff's practice is perfect for dog owners who have experienced the above problems. Jeff is separated from other dog experts by his success in solving these problems in dogs. Almost all dogs he meets have anxiety or fear issues. Jeff, who is confident and relaxed, can solve anxiety problems.
