Reactive Dog Class
Cost: $420 for 6 weeks
This class is for dogs who are reactive or aggressive toward other dogs or people. In this class dogs learn better coping skills and new behaviors. The Reactive Dog Class provides a controlled, safe environment where owners of reactive canines work on teaching dogs alternative behaviors to barking, growling, lunging, or showing too much arousal toward dogs or people. Registration is on a case by case basis. The Reactive Dog class is a clicker training class. We use motivational, reward-based methods. No choke chains, prong collars, or physical corrections. This class is limited to 4 dogs.
The Reactive Dog Class will help you:
-
Learn how to read your dog's body language
-
Learn how to better manage your reactive dog
-
Learn how to shape and change your dog's behavior
