Seeking Dog Behaviourist Recommendations In The Act

[Ben and Jerry]

Hi DoL posters and readers,

I am looking for some recommendations on a quality yet affortable dog behaviourist in the ACT. My dog has started becoming aggressive towards other male dogs(trying to display dominance?) and whenever I have him around me I am unable to touch another dog without him going off . I've had a little look around and can find a trainer or two but I think I'm after a behaviourist rather then trainer? or can trainers help with this sort of issue now aswell. Also never having to of used a behaviourist before nor knowing anybody who has, what sort of costs am I looking at paying? Money is a bit tight at the moment so I would like to atleast get a rough idea of what I'll be in for.

Try sending a PM to Poodlefan if she does not spot this thread. She is based in the ACT and might be able to recommend someone.
