Dog training isn’t one-size-fits-all—and it definitely isn’t a YouTube tutorial.

Let me explain. 👇

I work with anxious, fearful, reactive dogs—and their humans.

Most people come to me after they’ve already done a lot of training.

Their dogs know the cues.

They’ve hired other trainers.

They’ve tried the YouTube videos and IG tips.

They’ve done the work.

And yet… the problem remains.

Because the issue isn’t training.

It’s safety.

Your dog doesn’t feel safe yet—and no amount of sit/down/heel is going to fix that.

Here’s the truth:

👉 The problem isn’t that their dog isn’t trained.
👉 The problem is their dog still doesn’t feel safe.

If this sounds like you, it’s time for a reset:

✨ Stop the exposure. Give your dog a staycation.
✨ Start observing what makes them uneasy—in the house.
✨ Help them feel safe at home before asking them to face the world.
✨ And please—build your team. That means a qualified vet, a behavior pro, and a plan that’s made just for your dog.

Your dog’s behavior isn’t a “problem” to be fixed on a timeline. It’s a response to how they feel.

When safety increases, behavior improves—every time.

Need a pro in your corner?

Because your dog deserves more than generic advice and guesswork. 🐾

Help SAVE dogs in 5 seconds ⤵️

Before you keep reading...

SHARE this to your stories so no more dogs have to be hurt.

Like I promised—here’s the TRUTH behind those 5 LIES you’ve been sold about pack walks 🥸👇

1. “Pack walks build confidence.”

Confidence isn’t built by forcing dogs to power-walk next to strangers while being punished into submission. It’s built through choice, safety, and freedom.

Sniffing = decompression. Forced formation = stress.

2. “It helps dogs socialize.”

Let’s be real—cramming dogs together and expecting them to ‘get along’ is like forcing adults into a group project with zero prep.

True socialization = space, consent, communication. Not forced exposure.

3. “It helps reactive dogs get over it.”

Nope. This is flooding, not training.

They’re suppressing the behavior, not healing it.

Progress happens through distance, safety, and a whole lot of snacks—not intimidation.

4. “Dogs are pack animals—it’s natural.”

This myth won’t die. Dogs are domesticated animals, not wolves.

The whole “alpha” thing? DEBUNKED.

Dogs thrive through secure relationships, not dominance hierarchies.

5. “Look, they’re doing great!”

You’re not seeing calm—you’re seeing shut down.

Pain compliance and fear-based obedience aren’t success stories. They’re red flags.

If you’ve ever wondered how these walkers get those “perfect” videos—now you know. And now you can help stop it.

Don’t forget to share this—it could protect someone’s dog today. 🐾

STOP YouTubing the solution and do this instead ⤵️

If you know me... dogs with stranger danger are my JAM.

I love those misunderstood dogs — and I get them because I used to be that way, too.

With a lot of therapy and work, I’ve learned that humans are safe. 😂

And because so many of our dog clients have had massive success training remotely with us worldwide…

We’ve created something special:

✨ An ONLINE course just for reactive dogs and their humans!

✅ Live Zoom training sessions

✅ Personalized feedback on your submitted homework videos (YouTube can't do that!)

✅ A built-in buddy system to keep you accountable (and connected!)

✅ Group support, Q&As, and 1-on-1 attention — all in one place

You’ll get the structure of my online course plus real-time coaching, support, and feedback from a multi-certified trainer (me 🙋‍♀️), and the community you need to stay consistent and make real progress.

You could spend hours doomscrolling Reddit, collecting 500 conflicting answers from strangers with zero credentials…

OR

You could work with someone who actually knows what they're doing and will build a customized plan for you and your dog.

Not only will you see results, but you'll get there faster 🏃‍♀️

👉 Comment “DOG” and I’ll send you a link to the waitlist —

You’ll be the first to know when it drops and get early access + discounted pricing! (HOW LUCKY 🍀)

NOT all barky, lungy dogs are the same...

If I were you (and lucky for you, I’m not), here’s what I’d do:

You could spend hours doomscrolling Reddit, getting 500 conflicting answers from strangers with zero credentials…

OR you could talk to a multi-certified dog trainer who actually knows their stuff and will give you a real plan for you and your dog.

Not sure if it's the right fit? Comment “CALL” and I’ll shoot you a link to book a chat.

I'm screaming this to the gods!

If you give dogs free regin of the home...

Dogs will behave like dogs.

They likely will ⬇️

⚡️ P*e and P**p everywhere
⚡️ Chew on new earphones
⚡️ Bark at windows
⚡️ Chase the cats
⚡️ Growl, lunge and bark at scary things
⚡️ And soooo much more!

Here's the truth: they are behaving like dogs do.

You want to introduce new elements of the world incrementally.

Navigating the challenges of bringing home a new dog (foster/adopting) can be overwhelming, and often, rescue organizations don't have the resources to hold your hand along the way.

That's why we've created a special offer for rescues to help their community to be the best pet parents/fosters they can be.

If you love your rescue organization...

Tag them below so we can help ALL the amazing pet people have a positive experience from day one!
