What goes into a behavior program
- An honest look at what triggers the behavior and how often it happens.
- Management steps that reduce practice of the problem while training is under way.
- Gradual exposure at a distance where the dog can still think.
- Teaching an alternative behavior the dog can be rewarded for.
- Regular check-ins so the plan is adjusted as the dog improves.

Good questions
Before you begin.
Is behavior training only for serious cases?
No. Many owners seek help for everyday annoyances, and earlier help is usually simpler.
What if I think my dog is in pain?
Call your vet first. Pain and illness can cause sudden changes in behavior.
Which methods are worth avoiding?
Be careful with anything that relies on fear, pain or intimidation. Look for rewards and gradual steps.
How long until I see change?
A fixed schedule is not something anyone can honestly set. Progress is gradual and depends on practice at home.
