## Prompt

```text
Help me with my pet's behavior.

**Pet:** [species, breed, age, how long I've had them]
**Problem:** [e.g. barking, pulling on the leash, scratching furniture, fear of strangers, litter issues]
**When it happens and what triggers it:** [DETAILS]
**What I've tried:** [NOTES]
**Home situation:** [other pets, kids, space, time available]

Give me the likely reasons, a step-by-step positive-reinforcement training plan with timelines, how to manage the environment in the meantime, and what to avoid. If the behavior is sudden or there's aggression or a possible health cause, tell me to see a vet or a certified behaviorist first.
