A Word From Your Instructor

Mary Angilly

"Dog reactivity can be frustrating, stressful, and embarrassing, but it doesn’t have to be! Not only can you teach your dog behaviors that are incompatible with barking, lunging, and growling, but you can achieve these results with force-free methods, making sure you feel good about how you get there. I specialize in dog reactivity, aggression, fear, and anxiety professionally, and I have had reactive dogs of my own, so I understand both ends of the leash. You and your dog can do this, and I’ll be with you every step of the way!"
Instructor Mary smiling with her dog Banchan
