Under Dog Academy
Does your dog overreact (growl, lunge, bark) when they see dogs, people, or other stimuli?
Our 6-week reactivity course will put you on the path to improved leash skills and calmer outings. We use a positive reinforcement training approach to address management, foundation skills and defensive handling.
You will learn how to use desensitization and counterconditioning to begin to change your dog’s emotional response to their triggers. The first class is owners only (dogs stay at home please) as to address class expectations, walking equipment, safety measures, and much more! The remaining 5 classes will get into the nitty gritty of reactivity and how we can help our dogs be the best versions of themselves.
PuppySMART Socialization &Training for Puppies 9-14 Weeks of Age
Did you know puppies that do NOT get proper exposure to new people, places, and things BEFORE 12-14 weeks of age are at great risk of struggling with future emotional and behavior problems, such as fear, shyness, reactivity, aggression, and chronic anxiety?
Avoid future behavior problems - fear, shyness, reactivity, aggression - that come from NOT properly & safely exposing your puppy to new people, places & things by the time puppy is 12 weeks old.
PuppySMART is a unique program of socialization and training for puppies from 9-14 weeks of age taught by Certified Canine Behavior Consultant Ann King
PuppySMART as a behavior prevention program. PuppySMART takes advantage of the critical developmental period when a puppy’s brain is naturally wired to accept new things (8-14 weeks). Owners learn how to properly support the continued emotional development of their puppies after this period, too. PuppySMART's unique curriculum helps your puppy naturally learn to expect the unexpected. This results in a dog that can manage its emotions, which ultimately drives its behavior.
