Dog Behavioral Modification - Northern VA

Behavioral Modification Program

Four 1-Hour Private Lessons: $900

Our behavioral modification program is specifically designed for dogs that exhibit aggression, reactivity, fearfulness, or anxiety, and require behavioral modification.

These issues cannot be fixed, but they can be managed.

The first four sessions will be used to learn the basic obedience commands (come, sit, heel, place and down). After your dog understands basic obedience and has a clear understanding of commands and has been conditioned into training tools, we will be able to work through tailored realistic scenarios to help work through behavioral issues.

This allows us the opportunity to teach owners about reading social cues and body language to help understand their specific dog and how to handle and maintain control of the dog in uncomfortable situations.

Our trainers will teach a new command each lesson. You will be required to work with your dog daily to practice and solidify the commands that were learned during your previous lesson sessions.
