Is This Reactivity or Aggression?

This 8-week, force-free group class is designed for pet parents navigating challenging behaviors like barking, lunging, freezing, or growling—whether on leash, behind windows, or during greetings. Together, we’ll explore the difference between reactivity and true aggression and learn how to manage and treat these behaviors with clarity, compassion, and skill.

Each 45-minute class builds on the last, combining safety-first management strategies with powerful training tools like desensitization, counterconditioning, and foundation cue work. We emphasize emotional threshold regulation, cooperative leadership, breed-appropriate enrichment, and veterinary support when needed.

You’ll also gain an understanding of what’s happening in your dog’s brain—so you can respond with calm confidence instead of frustration.

This course is designed to prevent shelter returns by empowering pet parents with science-backed solutions, accessible support, and a community that shares your commitment to doing better now that you know better.
