Before any training process, we come to you for an assessment meeting so we can pinpoint the causes of the problems and tailor a plan that is precise for you.

A behavior-focused training process is right for any dog owner who struggles with their dog’s behavior and wants to improve their quality of life. If you feel your dog’s behavior is affecting your life – that every walk turns into a nightmare, that you can’t leave the dog home alone, that it’s frightened by everything outside or attacks anything that moves – it’s time to take control and rebuild your bond and communication with it. Together we’ll identify the causes of the behavior, solve the problem, and bring calm and confidence back to your life.

Solve Your Dog's Behavioral Problems & Aggression

Q: How do I know if my dog has a behavioral problem?

Here are some common symptoms: 1. Barking with no clear reason, or an extreme reaction to triggers such as guests, outside noises, or being left alone. 2. Behavior involving growling, baring teeth, biting, or attempts to attack other dogs, people, or animals. 3. Chewing furniture, shoes, or personal items, or an obsessive fixation on doors, walls, and windows. 4. Crying, howling, restlessness, or destructive behavior whenever the dog is left home alone. 5. Lunging forward on walks, an inability to walk calmly, or attempts to escape and chase after triggers. 6. The dog completely ignores the owner’s calls or commands, even in a calm home environment. 7. Extreme reactions such as fleeing, trembling, or huddling in a corner in response to triggers like loud noise, strangers, or new places. 8. Compulsive self-licking or self-biting, tail chasing, or excessive fixation on a particular object.

Treating behavioral problems in dogs focuses on identifying and addressing unwanted behaviors such as excessive barking, aggression, anxiety, or destructiveness.
Through a professional assessment, we can understand the causes of the behavior and build a personally tailored treatment plan – using learning techniques based on positive reinforcement and proper communication between the dog and its owner.
