Predation Substitution Training

PST is a hybrid course that alternates virtual classroom learning and live, in the field practice.
Hunting is a very natural behavior for all of our dogs, however it can cause a lot of challenges like pulling on lead, running off, a dog who has no focus outdoors and the dreaded backyard murders.
This course will teach you how to use your dog's natural hunting instincts to get and keep your dog's focus and attention, reduce your dog's chasey ways, find safe and appropriate outlets for your dog to predate/hunt safely (and with much less murder!)
Dates Coming Soon!
Reframing Reactivity
$385
This hybrid, intensive course begins with 4 weeks of virtual lessons, followed by 4-30 minute one on one and/or small group training sessions for a total of 8 intensive weeks to reduce your dog's stress, fear and anxiety. This course is ideal for dogs who bark and lunge on leash or are fearful or anxious around people or new places.
Not able to train with us in person? No problem! We can easily and effectively work remotely for the final 4 classes.

Reframing Reactivity Master Class

This course includes 4-90 minute outdoor classes that focus on increasing comfort, calmness and building reliable behaviors in public.
