Calm Your Reactive Dog with Expert Training
Our reactivity training program is ideal for reactive, fearful or overexcited dogs. If your dog growls, lunges, or barks at other dogs, animals, or humans, then our trainers can help.
We have expertise in managing reactivity problems, including fear aggression, frustration-based reactivity, and intrahousehold aggression. We use force-free methods and humane training techniques to modify behaviour issues. Our methodology is to understand and address the underlying emotional triggers that spark reactive behaviour.
We focus on changing your dog’s emotional response to triggers and reinforcing desirable behaviours. We work at your dog’s pace and ensure your dog is kept sub-threshold. Our goal is long-term behavioural change rather than simply suppressing the symptoms. Our trainers ensure the training sessions are low-stress and enjoyable for both you and your dog.

- Show aggression towards other dogs, animals, or humans.
