Understanding the difference: Dog Reactivity and Dog aggression is paramount in a proper evaluation of the dog and the client's needs.

Too many times dogs are deemed “Aggressive” when they are truly just Reactive. There are plenty of actual aggression cases, but that may not be your dog. Let our experienced staff help you figure out the best approach for your dog training needs.

Dog Behavior Modification

Six weeks in duration, this is an in-depth dog behavior modification program that aims to actually change the brain of your dog as it pertains to stopping their unwanted behaviors. We focus heavily on teaching your dog solid obedience outside of triggers and then slowly working to desensitize them in the environments that cause them to react. This program requires a team effort by the owner and us, so we require the owner to complete homework assignments while the dog is in training (includes lifetime private lesson at our facility should you need our help in the future)

Behavior modification is a personalized and systematic approach. Many pet owners try to train their dogs but have difficulty being consistent or accidentally promoting unwanted behaviors without meaning to. Our professional behavioral modification program changes your dog’s behavior by making it easier for your dog to connect appropriate actions to good outcomes.
