⚡Group Coaching is better than 1:1


Rethinking Your Dog Training? You’re Not Alone.

You’ve probably heard it before (maybe even from me!):
“One-on-one training is the gold standard.”

And sure—it makes sense. All eyes on you and your dog. More attention. More personalization. More results.

But after running lots of programs, here’s what I’ve seen again and again:
Small group training can actually be even more powerful.
Every time I teach a Deep Dive, it proves itself.

Let me show you why.

Yes—individual support matters. And yes, you’ll absolutely get that here.

But what most people don’t realize is just how transformative it can be to work on leash reactivity in a small group of dog people who truly get it.
Plus... it’s about a third of the cost of private coaching!

We’re often dealing with the same stuff—embarrassing lunges, stressful walks, that gut-drop moment when you see another dog or person headed your way.
You are so not alone.

This isn’t like a typical in-person group class where everyone’s in the same room, stressed out, trying to manage their dogs.
In this program, you get to work from the comfort of your own space—where your dog can stay under threshold and you can actually focus, learn, and make real progress.

Here’s what makes this format magic:

  • You learn from others—real dogs, real struggles, real-time solutions.
  • You hear a question you didn’t even know you had—and it clicks.
  • You see someone else win—and suddenly, it feels possible for you too.
  • And yes, they’ll cheer you on when you have your win.
  • You realize: Oh... it’s not just me.

That kind of support? That daily feedback?
It changes everything. It builds momentum. Confidence. That deep-down belief of we’ve got this.

This isn’t just a training program.
It’s a community of leash-reactivity badasses.

Yes, I’ll coach you. Yes, we’ll troubleshoot exactly what’s going on with your dog.
But you’ll also gain strength from watching others work through the same things—and come out stronger.

You’ll be inspired. Supported. Seen.

Private coaching still has its place—I love it, and I still offer it.
But if you’re craving progress, connection, and a little bit of magic?

This small group is where it happens.

Come for the leash skills.
Stay for the solidarity, the breakthroughs, and the badass energy.

I hope you’ll join me Saturday for our free class.

See you soon,
—Christina ✨

Let’s Make Walks Easier—for Both of You Do you ever watch people walking their dogs—coffee in hand, chatting away, looking like they don’t have a care in the world—and feel a little jealous? And then, when it’s time to walk your own dog… your body tenses. Your heart races. Maybe your hands grip the leash tight at your waist or chest. Sound familiar? You’re not alone. And here’s something really important: Your dog isn’t reactive because you’re anxious. Their reactivity is not your fault. But...

What's With All The Cookies? 🍪 In training, whether we're teaching a brand-new behavior or working to change an old habit, the first step is always the same: build tons of value in the behavior we do want to see. That means... lots of cookies! I just uploaded a fun throwback video featuring Riker learning how to stay calm instead of "fun policing" the other dogs when they start to run. In those early sessions, I kept the expectations low and the rewards high—that’s how you create a rock-solid...

Comparison-Itis: The Sneaky Challenge of Owning a Reactive Dog If you have a reactive dog, you’ve probably felt it—the heavy weight of comparison-itis. You scroll through social media or watch other dogs calmly strolling by, and suddenly you wonder, “Why can’t my dog be like that?” It’s totally normal to feel this way. But here’s the thing: every journey is unique. Reactivity isn’t a reflection of your skills as a pet guardian or trainer—it’s a sign that your dog is struggling with something...
