Reactive Dog Training

in

Oakland

Is your dog barking, lunging, or pulling on walks? Reactive behavior can make outings stressful, but effective training can change that. I specialize in helping reactive dogs feel more secure and responsive, using evidence-based techniques tailored to your dog’s needs.


Through custom behavior coaching, I’ll guide you in understanding your dog’s reactivity while building skills to navigate the world with confidence. Whether your dog reacts to other dogs, people, or specific situations, we’ll develop a plan that fosters long-term improvement.

Let’s Fix What’s Not Working

Not sure what’s going on with your dog—but pretty sure it’s not “just a phase”?


Whether you're dealing with reactivity, anxiety, or out-of-nowhere meltdowns, you’re in the right place. Every dog has a reason for what they’re doing—and I’ll help you decode it. I bring 25+ years of experience, deep understanding of behavior science, and a no-BS approach to helping people and dogs move forward.

Tell me what’s going on below. I’ll help you map out what’s possible—and how we’ll get there.

Thanks for submitting! 🐾
