Fearful or Anxious Dog Training
in
San Fransisco
Crowded sidewalks, loud traffic, unpredictable people—San Francisco can be overwhelming for sensitive dogs. If your dog freezes, hides, or panics in everyday situations, it’s not a personality flaw. It’s a behavior issue that needs thoughtful support.
I’m Sara Scott, a behavior consultant with over 25 years of experience helping anxious dogs navigate their world more confidently. I work with dogs in San Francisco who need more than obedience—they need to feel safe.
If your dog is struggling with fear or anxiety, I’ll help you figure out why—and what to do next.
