Workshop Description

Hey, fellow trainer! If you’ve ever looked at a reactive dog and thought, “I think I know what to do, but I want to understand it on a deeper level,” or maybe you've struggled with a few client dogs in the past, this workshop is for you. I created this spectator spot specifically for trainers who want to level up without the pressure of bringing their own dog. You get to stand next to me, watch how I assess each dog, how I coach the owners, how I make adjustments in real time, and exactly why I choose the strategies I choose. You’ll see the stuff most trainers never get to watch up close. The messy moments, the breakthroughs, the emotional shifts, the timing, the pressure, the release, the psychology behind the dog and the human. You're getting a front-row seat inside my brain for a weekend What You’ll Learn • Understanding the real reason behind reactivity for each dog Not just the behavior, but the mindset, the emotional state, and the triggers behind the triggers. • How I build focus and engagement You’ll watch me teach dogs to tune in to their handler even when everything around them is telling them not to. • Counter-conditioning done correctly How to shift a dog’s emotional response to their triggers, not mask it. • Rewarding vs bribing One leads to progress. The other leads to frustration. I’ll show you how I teach owners to understand the difference. • Impulse control that actually works Real exercises that build a calm, thinking dog instead of just a dog doing commands. • Reading micro body language Those tiny shifts that happen seconds before reactivity. Once you can read them, everything changes. • When and how to apply fair corrections Clarity, timing, and consistency. And why sometimes corrections may not be the right answer • How I stay proactive instead of reactive You’ll see how I structure sessions so the dog and owner are both set up to win. • How I speak to and handle clients. This is what fosters trust and gets results. Client communication is at the core of success BONUS FOR TRAINERS Quality discussion and Q&A/AMA after each class You’ll also get one Reactive Dog Mastermind Zoom call with me. Just us trainers. Breaking down the workshop. Talking through real cases. Answering your questions. And diving deeper into behavior modification from a psychological standpoint. This is where everything connects... See you there!
