Field notes · Dog training in Angier & Raleigh, NC
What if correcting my dog doesn't work?
Then it did not work, and the plan changes. A correction is judged by whether the behavior changed, not by whether it was delivered.
In the trainer's words
I corrected that harshly, and it still did not completely deter him, because he’s still actively interested in those people - and especially in that dog. And you saw he was right on the cusp of doing what he always does.Kelton, Head Trainer, Angier K9 Consultants

A very serious behavioral modification… we still have some progress to make
Recognize your own dog in this?
Most people who call us have already been told their dog is a lost cause, or that they should manage it and hope. We train dogs in Angier, Raleigh and across the Triangle, and we take the serious aggression and reactivity cases that other programs turn down.
How it works: tell us what your dog is actually doing. We tell you honestly whether we can help, including when the answer is no. If we can, you leave with a plan and a start date.
What you get back is a dog whose world gets bigger instead of smaller.
