So, I spent a lot of time trying to do a negative pressure like a pressure type thing when in reality I could have just said, "Hey, you're not allowed to go explore unless you do it." And the release to freedom works perfectly.

The record

3 sessions, 1.4 hours of footage, 7,520 words of transcript.

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.
