Aggressive Dog Training
in
Contra Costa County
Living with an aggressive dog is overwhelming—especially when every walk, knock at the door, or new interaction feels like a potential explosion. Whether it’s growling, lunging, snapping, or biting, aggression doesn’t mean your dog is bad. It means something’s not working—and it can be changed. I specialize in helping Contra Costa County dogs who struggle with fear, frustration, or defensive behavior. No outdated dominance myths. Just practical, science-backed strategies that get results without making things worse.
Reach out and tell me what’s going on. I’ll help you make a clear plan that actually fits your dog—and your life.
