Do you have a nervous dog?
This was my second visit to their home and they experience lots of barking and some lunging at times with their dog.
During my first visit it took their dog about 20 minutes to settle down. This go around it took about 4 minutes so they are making some serious headway.
By using something like my jacket that has a ton of scent on it, I’m encouraging her to use her nose to come curious of me. This won’t make us besties by any means.
I’m just looking for progress.
And I truly LOVE working with these types of dogs. It’s so rewarding so see them settle, become curious, and become more accustomed to something that makes them more comfortable.
Over the last 18+ years, the biggest thing I’ve learned is this:
most dog owners don’t need more commands — they need understanding.
The Behavior Lab is a weekly classroom where I teach you how to read behavior, spot patterns early, and make better decisions with your dog in real time.
Each week is a different subject.
Some weeks we teach concepts.
Some weeks we break down real videos.
Some weeks we answer questions that actually matter.
This isn’t a course.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all program.
It’s ongoing coaching, real discussion, and practical clarity.
Enrollment is now open.
