High Anxiety/Fear

Dog Training

Having an anxious dog is its own kind of difficult. Fear of strangers, other dogs, and separation can cause a dog to struggle and an owner to be at a loss. Our trainers are adept at training anxious dogs to find confidence and peace by gradually increasing their comfort zone through positive experiences. Before long, your dog will be living a life of fun and adventure.

Signs of Anxiety and Fear include:

  • Panting
  • Pacing
  • Restlessness
  • Compulsive behaviors
  • Growling
  • Excessive barking
  • Excessive yawning
  • Disinterest

Don’t let anxiety or fear keep you and your dog on a leash. We know that it’s hard to watch your dog struggle, and it’s sometimes even harder to take steps towards change, but we’re here for you. Let us help you and your dog develop a deep, trusting relationship that can survive any situation or location in the world. Get in touch with our team to get started!

Sophia, Charlie, and Bella Sit Means Sit has done wonders with my puppies. Sophia went from pulling my arm out when walking her to strolling next to me.

Katie (my 8 month old golden retriever) and I entered training right after Labor Day 2018. Katie was trained for 15 days, plus a couple of private lessons, a couple of group lessons, and a trip to our house in. Your staff did an excellent job training her and i appreciate all the time and effort they put forth. Katie did very well until we started traveling to California and other places. We both got off track a bit.

I would just like to thank you and your staff for scheduling Katie and I to have a tune-up session for 3 days. This will get us both back on track. I am very impressed with your staff. They are knowledgeable, competent, and very patient especially with me. I also realize that I have to do my part for the training process to be successful. Your program was highly recommended to me, and I can vouch for that and will recommend it to others.

Thanks again for your caring staff!
