This program consists of twelve private lessons. The program starts in much the same way as the basic adult program learning basic attentiveness and obedience practice. However, the focus changes midway through the course.
We devote less time to learning advanced obedience skills and more time to exposing your dog to the triggers for their aggression and extinguishing their responses to that aggression.
The foundation to our training course for aggression issues is really the core of our relationship-based training. Often, one of the hallmarks of aggression is that the dog does not look to the owner for leadership when interpreting threats or triggers.
We take steps in lower distraction environments to build this relationship and then work into the scenarios that lead to the aggressive incidents.
