Have you considered not walking your dog anymore because it is so difficult to control them? Do they bark, lunge and growl at other dogs they meet? You are not alone! What you have is a reactive dog. In this class, you will learn how to take your dog from nearly breaking their leash at the sight of another pooch to calmly looking back at you. These are intensive classes that require you do your homework during the week, but they deliver results! For the first day of class only, we will meet dog-free to enable an owner question and answer opportunity. For the remaining 5 class meetings your dog will attend with you.
