Does your dog bark, growl, snarl or lunge at dogs and/or people? Are you at a loss as to how to deal with this obviously unacceptable behavior? Have you 'tried' everything to no avail?  Come to this informative Reactive Dog Day to get answers to your questions; an overview of how to help reduce your dog's stress and to participate in field work with your dog.

Field Work--

We will work with you and your dogs in a group setting. Demos will include leash handling and basic training techniques to help participants to do their part in reducing their dog's reactivity. Live naration of dog body language and communication will arm participants with knowledge so to become more proactive in dealing with their dog's behavior.
