Aggressive & Reactive Dog Training

Reactivity, fear and aggression aren't fixed with a quick trick — they're changed with structure, clarity and confidence. We build a plan around your dog, starting with a proper evaluation.

We start with an evaluation — always

Aggression and reactivity are serious, and no responsible trainer prescribes a program sight unseen. Every aggressive or reactive case begins with a consultation so we can assess your dog safely, understand the triggers, and build the right plan — whether that's private lessons or an immersive Board & Train.

From there, the work is about confidence and neutrality: teaching your dog that the world is predictable, that you're a clear leader worth following, and that the old reactive patterns aren't needed anymore. We coach you on the management and timing that keep the change in place.

Common Questions

Answers before you call.

Do you really work with aggressive dogs?
Yes. We work with dogs other programs turn away — but safely, and only after an in-person consultation and evaluation. Call (859) 447-0446 to schedule.
Is there a maximum age or breed you won't take?
No maximum age and no breed restrictions — any dog, any breed, any age. The evaluation determines the plan.
Private lessons or Board & Train for aggression?
It depends on the dog and the severity. Many serious cases do best in Board & Train for the daily structure; we'll recommend the right path at your consult.
How much does behavior modification cost?
It starts with an in-person consultation and evaluation, because no two cases are the same. We build the plan — and the pricing — around what your dog actually needs. Call (859) 447-0446 to schedule.
My dog has bitten before. Will you still work with them?
We work with dogs other programs turn away, but safety comes first: every serious case starts with an in-person evaluation so we can assess the dog honestly and build the right plan.
