Does your dog struggle with....
- Barking or lunging on walks?
- Pulling on leash?
- Aggression and fear based reactions?
- Anxiety or nervous behavior?
- Difficulty listening in distracting environments?
- Overexcitement around people and dogs?
Reactivity often starts with overexcitement, that then leads to frustration. You are not alone -- and your dog is not "bad". Most behavior struggles come from confusion, stress, lack of structure and communication gaps. Our training focuses on helping your dog learn the correct behavior, while feeling calm and safe even in real world environments.

Professional Reactivity Training Programs
Behavior Modification
Our 21-day board and train program is specifically designed to tackle behavior issues head-on, providing an intensive and structured environment for dogs to thrive. During this immersive program, our experienced trainers work closely with each dog to address specific behavior challenges. Through a combination of one-on-one sessions, socialization exercises, and environmental enrichment activities, we strive to create a supportive and nurturing atmosphere conducive to learning and growth. By immersing dogs in a focused training environment, we can expedite the behavior modification process and lay the foundation for long-term success.
Our Approach
Your reactive dog is not trying to give you a hard time, they are having a hard time. We take a positive, reward-based approach to dog training that emphasizes communication, trust, and mutual respect. All of our training is about teaching your dog what they are supposed to do and creating new behaviors for success. Human training is as important as dog training! All of our programs include involvement owner involvement, structured training plans, videos of your dog working and how to continue.
What can you expect?
During the time your dog spends with our trainer, he/she will have multiple training sessions a day. Every board and train client receives a personalized video demonstrating what their dog has learned at the end of the program.
Board and Train can be the best option for many families, since we do all the work to get your furry companion fully trained up. Think of it as dog training in a personal home so your pet can reach its full potential.
