The one thing I want ALL dogs to know!


No matter age, size, how social a dog is, how anxious or how confident the dog is, whether they live alone or in a pack, are a brand new puppy, adolescent, or senior... there is one thing all dogs need to know.

We can go for walks with or past other dogs WITHOUT INTERACTING

We don't have to say hi, we don't have to sniff bums, and we don't have to play. Really! ;)

When our dogs learn that now every dog is a potential threat or playmate, we take a lot of the arousal/excitement out of greetings.

For dogs living in a multidog home, they learn that they can just let the other dog do their own thing, play with that toy, chew that bone. This is all easier for the dogs to learn if first we teach them how to go for no-contact walks.

Considering joining the next Deep Dive?

This is my super popular mentorship program in which I spend 8 weeks with a small group of people struggling with similar issues. This Deep Dive focuses on dogs who fight at home. Because this is a custom experience and I get to know each of you and your dogs intimately, space is limited to only 6 people.

BONUS!

Everyone who signs up before midnight May 26th (PST) gets my Stationing course FREE! This will jump start your journey to having a peaceful home.

5 weeks ’til Christmas! Reactivity can feel overwhelming, embarrassing, and frustrating—but it doesn’t have to stay that way. How are you feeling about visitors this year? I’m curious—how are you planning to handle the holiday chaos? 😫 Will your dog bark, jump on guests, or maybe even nip if things get too exciting? 🥰 Or will they politely greet friends and family, staying calm and friendly? 🍗 Will they counter surf and snatch cookies from the table? Will they drool and beg from everyone?🐾 Or...

Leash Reactivity? Reactivity can feel overwhelming, embarrassing, and frustrating—but it doesn’t have to stay that way. There are 3 stages to addressing Leash Reactivity.
