Fear Reactive & Aggressive Dog Training
Most "aggressive" dogs are acting out from a "fear" response. Have you stopped walking/taking your dog places due to fear, embarrassment, or feeling helpless? I understand. Yet this just adds to the lack of healthy enhancement & exercise activities, possibly increasing your dog's reactive responses. I specialize in working with fear reactive dogs, helping them build confidence and trust.

Wow! Anita is amazing! I got a new pup this year and I took him to another trainer because my schedule didn't fit with Anita's at the time. Having finished a full session of training, I felt disappointed; though we did all our socialization homework, my pup still turned himself inside out on the leash when he saw a potential playmate, and didn’t have a reliable "come!"..... So, I rearranged my schedule and re started my pup with Anita. My boy now does his training both on and off leash among 8 other dogs! He can Come, sit, stay and heel both on and off leash even in the midst of play with the other dogs! After a wonderful morning's off leash hike and an evening’s perfect neighbor stroll, I just had to post this happy success story! Training with Anita is the way to have a great relationship of trust and success with your dog!

Anita and her method of training is loving, compassionate, and kind. Our new puppy can't wait to see her when she comes to train. Anita has taught us how to train with consistency and patience. We are so happy with the results! We have a well-mannered, social and most importantly a safe dog who will come, sit, stay, heel and wait. Thanks to you, Anita!
