Are walks stressful? Does your dog lunge, bark, or become uncontrollable at the sight of other dogs, people, or cars? Our private reactivity training program is designed to bring peace back to your walks. We work with you in your environment to address the root cause of the reactivity and build your dog's confidence.
We'll safely assess your dog's reactivity and create a custom plan.
We don't just manage reactivity; we resolve it where it happens. By training in your neighborhood, we address the specific triggers your dog faces daily, leading to real-world, lasting results.
Our methods are modern, humane, and science-based. We focus on teaching your dog how to be calm and make better choices, rather than using force or fear. We build confidence, not suppress behavior.
We specialize in leash reactivity (barking, lunging, frustration) but do NOT work with dogs with a history of biting. Our expertise is in helping frustrated, over-excited, or fearful dogs, ensuring a safe and effective training process.
Our comprehensive reactivity training addresses the root causes of your dog's behavior, giving you the tools to enjoy peaceful, stress-free walks.
We teach your dog to walk calmly on a loose leash, ignoring distractions that used to cause outbursts and making walks enjoyable again.
Learn to identify your dog's triggers and manage the environment to prevent reactions before they start, giving you control in any situation.
Many reactive behaviors stem from fear or insecurity. We build your dog's confidence so they no longer feel the need to react defensively.
We teach you how to keep your dog's attention on you, even when distractions are present, creating a strong connection that overrides triggers.
We change your dog's emotional response to triggers, turning fear or frustration into calm indifference through proven behavioral techniques.
Learn safe and effective techniques to handle unexpected situations and quickly de-escalate a reaction when surprises happen.
We've refined our approach to deliver consistent, lasting results for reactive dogs and their families.
We meet you and your dog to safely assess the reactivity, identify triggers, and discuss your goals in a no-pressure environment.
We create a two-part plan: immediate management to stop the practice of reacting, and a long-term training plan to change the behavior.
Your expert trainer guides you through controlled sessions, teaching you the skills to manage and modify your dog's reactivity.
As your dog progresses, we gradually introduce more challenging real-world scenarios to ensure the training holds up in any situation.
Get answers to the most common questions about our reactivity training program.
Reactivity is typically a big, noisy display (barking, lunging) on leash, often from frustration or fear, without the intent to bite. Aggression involves a history or intent to cause harm. We specialize in reactivity and can help you determine the nature of your dog's behavior during our free assessment.
While there is no magic "cure," the behavior can be significantly improved and managed to the point where walks are peaceful and enjoyable. Our goal is to give you the tools for long-term success and a calm companion.
You will learn management techniques that provide immediate relief from the first session. Changing the underlying emotional response takes time and consistency, but most clients see significant progress within a few weeks.
Our primary goal is to help your dog be neutral and calm around other dogs on walks. While some dogs may become more social, the focus of reactivity training is calm coexistence, not necessarily direct interaction.
We use a combination of management, desensitization, and counter-conditioning. These are positive, science-based methods that change your dog's emotional response to triggers without using pain or intimidation.
