Your First Steps to Calmer Walks

I'm a dog trainer who helps owners raise happy, confident dogs using kind, reward-based training. I support puppy owners through those hectic first few months, as well as helping dogs with recall, lead walking and reactivity through online training and coaching.

Living with a reactive dog can be exhausting. Walks that should be enjoyable can quickly become stressful, leaving both you and your dog feeling overwhelmed.

This guide will help you understand why reactivity happens, what might be contributing to it and some simple first steps you can take to help your dog feel safer.
