A brilliant course which provided a comprehensive overview of what resource guarding is and why it occurs. The use of case studies and real-life scenarios adds a practical edge to the theory, which made it more relatable and easier to understand how you would implement in real-world situations. Lots of references to check up on and read, which is always an added bonus!

So much useful information and all linked in really well with the other 2 courses I did over 3 days. Dave was an excellent presenter, explaining each element clearly and concisely and happy to answer any questions. Case studies helped link everything together

I loved this course. Dave was presenting to a wide audience but I'm sure everyone benefited from it. The content was great, covering identification, assessment, management and protocols for resolving various forms of resource guarding (food, item and location guarding were all dealt with). Dave also outlined some things we should be thinking of when considering safety issues and conducting a risk assessment. The course had a great basis in scientific studies which were all referenced and yet was delivered in such a way as to be very accessible. I'm confidant that it will help me with my own dog and with clients' dogs too. I'm so glad I did this course, thank you.

A fantastic course to help understand the complexity of resource guarding and Dave shares some great examples of situations he has come across in the past and how he worked with the Dog and owner to resolve them. A great course and Dave explains complex information in a way that attendees with all levels of experience can understand fully.

A fascinating webinar full of fascinating information that's relevant not only to this particular issue but that ties into behavioural issues more broadly. It was incredibly comprehensive and up-to-date, and will undoubtedly inspire the participant to research further. Incredibly thoughtful practical advice given, addressing the needs of the canine professional, the guardian, and the dog, while also exploring in detail the aetiology (including the neurochemistry) of what is commonly termed resource guarding. Delivered in a highly accessible manner with a lightness of touch that makes the assimilation of information feel effortless to the learner. Just smashing!

This is a great course and I really appreciated having the opportunity to discuss this within a classroom environment, with a group that were throwing out superb questions all of the time and pushing the boundaries of the subject quite a way out. Dave provides many fascinating examples for the control and management of canine behaviours, drawing on his years of experience to keep the content entertaining, relevant and concise. He also offers lots of really important advice for people working with canine aggression and resource guarding cases. As always, I learned a huge amount and met some more lovely IMDT'ers.

A course that certainly exercised our brains! Lots of science to do with the chemistry of the brain on day 1, which is fascinating and allows you the opportunity to build up your knowledge of the topic from a sound scientific basis as well as individual case studies that give the subject four legs in everyday life! The course notes allow individuals to further explore this subject at their own pace, as notes are clear and the supporting references allow you the opportunity to do further indepth reading of primary source material.

A fantastic 2 days spent learning all about resource guarding you think you know a lot about something but then Imdt throw something that you wouldn't have thought of or make you think about things in a whole new light ,very informative 2 day's, throughly enjoyed every minute and have taken home a whole new set of stuff to work on not just with my own dogs but clients aswell ,thanks to Steve Mann for putting such fab courses together and of course the brilliant David Bruce for being a great speaker and making things so easy to understand

I have just attended the IMDTB Resource Guarding course presented by David Brice and I just want to recommend it to anyone working with dog behaviour!Even though he covers a lot of advanced information he made it easy to understand with plenty of practical advice to implement straightaway in daily work.It’s really highlighted a lot on issues and made me look at the behaviour from many more angles. Looking forward to his future seminars!
