In my experience, at least 80% of what people feel is “wrong” with a dog, or consider “bad” dog behavior STARTS with the humans at the other end of the leash.

Traditional dog training fails dogs for this reason.

PLEASE learn enough dog body language and dog behavior to keep the adults and children from sending your dog over threshold:

Grass pads can help reactive dogs and their guardians avoid triggers during behavior rehabilitation. Many people think their dog won’t use one, which is why I made this video of Stella.

Would it help if you didn’t have to take walks with your fearful or reactive dog?

Do you dread neighborhood walks, avoid having guests over, and lose sleep before every vet appointment because your canine companion barks, lunges, trembles, or whines?

You don’t have to live like this.

Helping dogs experience their world differently starts by understanding what they’re communicating, so you can help them BEFORE they react.

In order to make the changes last, a dog’s nervous system has to regulate the stress hormones currently flooding their bodies. That starts with their arousal level at home.

The Reactive Dog Workshop helps you build a foundation of communication and calm for your reactive dog so they’re able to respond differently to triggers. In turn, they learn to feel less vulnerable and afraid.

You’ll learn to read your dog’s body language.

You’ll learn to reduce their daily arousal level.

You’ll learn how to bring peace to your dog and your home.

The Reactive Dog Workshop includes:

🐾 A one-hour, live video, private behavior assessment�🐾 A written assessment summary with personalized recommendations�🐾 Educational videos and handouts�🐾 Two weeks of text and/or email coaching support, to help implement your plan�🐾 A follow-up, private video call two weeks later to keep you moving forward

Plus, I’m here to guide you, every step of the way!

The first 5 confirmed attendees receive a special $150 program price. That’s a $100 savings off the standard price of $250.

I’m happy to answer your questions, and make sure this is a good fit. Please message me here, or email me at: [email protected].

Do you dread walks with your dog because they react to dogs, people, bikes, motorcycles, garbage trucks, and most loud noises?

Do you avoid having guests over because your dog barks or whines the entire time?

Do you dream of being able to take your dog out to lunch, or vet visits without a meltdown?

Communication, not control, is how we reach dogs that have a history of being “uncontrollable” around triggers. Reducing their daily arousal level is how we make it “stick.”

The Reactive Dog Workshop is designed to help you build a foundation of communication and calm for your reactive dog, so their nervous system and brain are able to respond differently to their world. In turn, they learn to trust us more deeply, so they feel less vulnerable and afraid.

You’ll learn to read your dog’s body language (their primary form of communication) and how to respond so your dog understands you, instinctually.

You’ll learn how to reduce their overall arousal level, so the stress related cortisol and adrenaline in their system can regulate.

Most importantly, you’ll learn how to give your dog a lasting sense of safety and calm, so everything you teach them afterwards can be absorbed more effectively and habituated more easily.

The Reactive Dog Workshop includes:

🐾 A one-hour, live video, private behavior assessment
🐾 A written assessment summary with personalized recommendations
🐾 Educational videos and handouts
🐾 Two weeks of text and/or email coaching support, to help implement your plan
🐾 A follow-up, private video call two weeks later to keep you moving forward

Plus, I’m here to guide you, every step of the way!

For a limited time the first 5 confirmed participants enjoy a special $150 price, for the entire program! That’s a $100 savings off the standard price of $250. Once 5 participants are confirmed, the price increases to $250

I’m happy to answer your questions, and make sure this is a good fit. Please message me here, or email me at: [email protected].

I look forward to sharing this healing journey with you and your pup.

Loving and living with a reactive dog can be a stressful experience for their humans, largely due to the seemingly unpredictable nature of their behavior, and understanding why they become “triggered.”

That’s why I created the Reactivity Foundation Workshop, a 2 week, coaching-guided program that helps guardians establish a foundation of understanding and communication with their dog, so everything they undertake afterwards is more effective, and more likely to “stick.”

I’m offering a very special price ($100 savings!) to the first 5 guardians that commit by July 28th.

The Reactivity Foundation Workshop includes:

🐾 A one-hour, live video, private behavior assessment�🐾 A written assessment summary with personalized recommendations�🐾 Educational videos and handouts�🐾 Two weeks of text and/or email coaching support, to help implement your plan�🐾 A follow-up, private video call two weeks later to keep you moving forward
Plus, I’m here to guide you, every step of the way!

Total cost for the first 5 confirmed participants: $150

I’m happy to answer your questions, and make sure this is a good fit for you. Please message me here, or email me at: [email protected]

I look forward to joining you and your pup on this healing journey.
