Yes. The 3-Week Reactivity Board & Train is an on-leash-only program for dogs with high reactivity or significant anxiety. Aggressive Dog Training is an eight-week, eight-lesson program for aggression or reactivity around other dogs. Results cannot be guaranteed, but training may improve control and help owners manage these behaviors.

Training methods and equipment vary by program. The standard 2-Week Board & Train, Elite Obedience, and 3-Week Reactivity Board & Train include an e-collar. Basic Marker Mastery™ uses reward-based methods and includes a 15-foot leash, clicker, and slip lead. The team can explain the methods and equipment during your consultation.
