Stressed to Superstar
REACTIVITY GROUP PROGRAM
Take your dog from over reactive and out of control to a loose lead and focussed in 8 weeks
Let’s do this…An 8 week intensive program, that you do one to one, in a group or by yourself via a digital course.
It will take your over reactive dog from barking, lunging and pulling to focussed loose lead walking in and around your normal day to day environments.
You can apply for Stressed to Superstar if you can tick all the following criteria….
Your dog currently either pulls on the lead, barks and lunges at dogs and/or people or is unable to control themselves through excitement around other dogs and people. ( Or does all these things!)
You are committed to at least 3 x 10 minute training sessions per day, in varying environments as the program progresses.
Your dog and you are currently physically well and ready to take on an intensive training course with full support from a dedicated trainer.
You understand that your success won’t happen in class, it will come from the practice you do in between.
What the program promises
If you commit to the program, do the required training sessions and follow through on feedback and you aren’t able to walk your dog on a loose lead around whatever they were previously triggered by at the end of the 8 weeks you can have your money back.
Yes I’m that confident. BUT you have to do the work between lessons and prove it….
I’m committing my time and focus to you over 8 weeks to make sure I get you from stressed to superstar in that timeframe, I need your commitment to the program in return. You’ll thank me for it and so will your dog. There is lots more in depth info about the program below and full requirements in the FAQs.
One program delivered 3 ways
A weekly group class
A 1.5hr group class weekly on Fridays at 11.30am. You will attend with your dog which must be able to rest in your vehicle when they are not working.
You’ll get the digital course to revise from and group messaging support the whole time to push you to do the training and keep motivated.
Reactivity Group Program
Friday Mornings 11.30am
8 consecutive weeks
One to One
Work the program with a weekly one to one (in person or over zoom) session and messaging support. I will be pushing you to keep up the training and expecting to see video evidence of what you have been up to.
Just turning up to the sessions won’t fix things, it’s the work in between that will make the magic happen.
Run the Stressed to Superstar course One to One
Book sessions convenient to you, the majority of availability is during normal working hours.
Digital Course
You can self pace a bit more with the digital course. You’ll have the video tutorials to work through and watch recordings of the group lessons from the first course to go through.
You’ll need to drive yourself to complete this one but if you think you can then this is the budget friendly option that will give you all the knowledge you need.
