Angsty Adolescence package
Reactivity rehab package
Recommended Age: 6 months to 24 months.
Scheduled twice a week, Play & Train Monday - Friday
15-30 Day Program starting at $1,200.
​
During adolescence, dogs often face behavioral challenges that can lead to re-homing or surrender. Our Antsy Adolescence package is designed to address these issues head-on, targeting specific behaviors typical of this age range, such as newfound reactivity, fearfulness and a regression in previous training. As puppies transition into adolescence, their brain undergoes significant changes; there is an increase in activity in areas responsible for mood, emotions and fulfilling desires. While the regions associated with self-control are still developing, and this imbalance can lead to impulse behaviors as dogs prioritize immediate gratitifcation.​

There is nothing worse than seeing your dog to react to different stimuli, such as other dogs, people or loud noises with barking, lunging or snarling! Reactivity is a common behavior incompatibility we see in many homes, stemming from deep-seated fear, insecurity, anxiety and frustration. It can also result from a lack of socialization or negative experiences in their life. Our reactivity rehab package is designed to address these underlying causes and help you and your dog learn to native their triggers more effectively. Through specialized training techniques, we guide your dog towards a more adaptive response, ultimately fostering greater confidence and calmness in challenging situations.
