These two handsome boys came to visit me yesterday. One is a senior and fearful of strange things (thunder noises, flashing lights like my strobe, etc). Sometimes it takes a bit of extra time, patience and reward to safely acclimate pets to a new, strange setting. We eventually got some great smiles out of both of them, and they left with their tails wagging.
Just like at the vet, one bad experience can lead to fear and reactivity in a similar situation for a long time, so it is important to establish a sense of security, even in the studio!
