Reactivity doesn't have to be overwhelming
Many dog owners associate reactivity with aggressive outbursts, but it truly encompasses any strong emotional response to a trigger. This could be a dog who barks and warns other dogs away out of fear, one that lunges at strangers or even a dog that insists on excitedly greeting every dog you pass. This can lead owners to feel hyper-aware of their surroundings, walking at unsociable times, and experiencing anxiety, fear, and embarrassment. At Janine White Dog Behaviour, we understand these challenges and are here to help.
Our tailored approach to reactivity
With specialist training and extensive experience in canine reactivity, Janine takes the pressure off both you and your dog. Our approach is designed to understand the unique challenges you face, providing effective and compassionate solutions for dogs across Wigan and surrounding areas.
Understanding your dog's triggers
Our journey begins by getting to know you and your dog. We'll identify specific triggers and what your dog's reactive behaviour truly looks like, helping you decode their communication.
Developing effective strategies
For some, understanding canine communication is key; for others, a firm action plan with practical exercises helps overcome obstacles. We provide the tools you need.
Building confidence & trust
Whether it's rebuilding trust, regulating emotions, or teaching alternative behaviours, we support both you and your dog in building lasting confidence.
Imagine calm walks in Wigan
Sometimes, just understanding why your dog is reacting brings immense relief. At Janine White Dog Behaviour, we provide a judgment-free space to discuss your situation, creating a clear plan that motivates change. While every dog's journey is unique, you can expect unwavering support, encouragement, and a clear roadmap. The day you walk past another dog without a reaction will transform your relationship and daily life together.
