“My dog is out of control on a walk? He goes crazy when he sees another dog!”
“My dog goes bat s@@t crazy every time someone comes into the home! I’m afraid he’s going to bite someone, HELP!”
“My dog loves playing with other dogs, but man, when she sees another dog across the street, she rises up on her back legs and barks aggressively, ahhh!”
You’re not alone!

You can see their connection with their dogs while on a walk. Instead of their dogs becoming disconnected on a walk with their person, clients and their dogs are checking in with each other and moving in sync with one another much like dance partners.
K-Rae and Shadow. K-Rae honed in Shadow’s puppy energy for some focused loose leash walking 🙂
This can also be YOU too!
