5-Session Behaviour Support Package

Does your dog bark, lunge, chase, or cower at the sight of bikes, prams, scooters, or skateboards? You're not alone — many dogs struggle with wheeled triggers. Whether it’s a burst of excitement or a reaction rooted in fear, this kind of behaviour can be stressful for both dogs and their humans.

WheelWise is a 5-session support package designed to begin the process of desensitising and building positive associations around wheels. We focus on helping your dog learn to stay calm, confident, and under threshold when wheels are nearby — whether that’s in your neighbourhood, at the park, or just walking down the street.

Each session is tailored to your dog’s specific reactions, history, and comfort levels. Our goal is not to "fix" the behaviour overnight, but to give you and your dog the tools to start changing how they feel and respond around wheeled triggers.

What’s Included:

• A personalised plan based on your dog’s history and triggers
• Controlled, low-pressure setups using real-world wheeled objects
• Positive reinforcement techniques to build confidence and calmness
• Practical strategies for you to continue at home and on walks
• Ongoing support and progress tracking throughout the 5 sessions

If your dog’s having a meltdown, they’re not learning. So at Scruffy’s, we keep training chill, fun, and under their ‘uh-oh’ limit, that’s when real progress happens!  Of course having a committed human willing to support them every step of the way is a must for progress to continue.

Let’s help your dog roll with it — one calm wheel at a time.
