What can Reward Your Dog Training help you and your dog with?

Reward Your Dog Training specializes helping guardians with dogs struggling with with fear, aggression, or reactivity find ways to effectively address the behavioral issues they’re facing, improving the dog-guardian relationship and enhancing quality of life.

Each dog and their issues are unique, of course, but the cases Verena most commonly takes on fall into one or more of the following categories:

  • You want your dog to be social with other dogs, but they bark, lunge, or snap at other dogs? Maybe your dog has even bitten another dog? Learn how to help your dog live more harmoniously with other dogs.

  • It can be really scary if your dog struggles with people approaching, talking to, or looking at them - especially if their response is to growl, bark, lunge or snap. Learn strategies to keep your dog and other people safe and improve your dog’s comfort around people.

  • While dog and human reactivity are the most common kinds of reactivity, maybe your dog displays reactivity in a different way, for example around things with wheels, valued resources like food and toys, novel objects, and more. Learn methods to help your dog overcome their big reactions for a more peaceful coexistence.

  • Is your dog a scaredy cat and struggles with fear, stress and anxiety living in the world? Learn how to help your dog gain confidence and decrease their anxiousness step by step.
