A Kent farmer has developed a unique method of curing dogs of their interest in sheep, which he claims is highly effective. However, the method has left one dog with post-traumatic stress disorder, highlighting the potential risks of this unconventional training.
The farmer's method involves subjecting the dog to a series of challenges, including being placed in small pens with sheep and being exposed to loud noises. The dog's owner reports that the training was intense and left the dog shaken.
Despite the potential risks, the farmer claims that his method is highly effective in curing dogs of their interest in sheep. He charges £40 for the training, which takes around 30 minutes to complete.
The farmer's method has gained attention from dog owners who are seeking a solution to their pets' sheep phobia. However, some experts have raised concerns about the potential risks of this training and whether it is suitable for all dogs.
The incident highlights the need for dog owners to be aware of the potential risks of this training and to seek advice from a veterinarian before subjecting their pets to this type of treatment.
