Reactive Dog Programmes

Living with a reactive dog is really lonely.

I get it.

I've experienced it first-hand.

I know the walks of odd hours to avoid other dogs.

I know it causes burnout.

I know the feeling of hyper-vigilance every time you go out for a walk.

I know that your world shrinks. You avoid certain places to protect your dog and avoid judgement of others.

I get it.

There is a solution and it's not complicated training techniques.

I have developed specialised programmes for reactive dogs and their people who refuse to give up despite trying "everything".

Programmes that build your and your dog's confidence and resilience.

We won't just look at how to change your dog's behaviour.

We will be looking around what is really happening under the surface when your dog is doing the unwanted behaviour.

We'll be looking at what is happening in your dog's life that can affect his behaviour and we'll also be covering your end of the lead.

How you feel and what you can do to handle stressful situations confidently.

There is no quick fix here.

No magic wand.

We are working to change emotions which takes time.

But if you work through the steps, practice and consistently apply what you learned, you can teach your dog how to encounter their trigger without losing their mind.

I am committed to fully supporting you during our time together to achieve the best result possible.

Designed to give you skills to get out of situations calmly when your dog sees the trigger.
It will take you from panicking when you see your dog's trigger to getting your dog's focus on you and keeping your dog under threshold.
