RESHAPING REACTIVITY
What is Reactivity? A dog that has a greater than 'normal' response to a distraction whether that is a noise or a person. With one of Adele's Dashing Dogs instructors you will transform your struggle into strengths through positive games-based methods. Say goodbye to stressful walks and a negative relationship- welcome a new, fun filled way to train!
RESHAPING REACTIVITY CLASS
Dogs who have certain struggles for example, may not be comfortable with people or other dogs can be challenging. However we LOVE them! We have owned several Naughty but Nice dogs so don’t worry we understand what you are going through. Some of these dogs may come across as confident as they are barking and lunging towards distractions, but this often comes from a lack of confidence. Do you struggle to walk your dog? Do you worry what is going to happen on your walk? Do you avoid seeing people and dogs on your walks? You are in the right place!

Steph & Tyson have been training with Adele's Dashing Dogs for a while now. They have 1-2-1s and attend our weekly Reshaping Reactivity class.
​
Tyson's struggles have been a rollercoaster of a ride. However through training Steph has the confidence to go into any situation I put her in and manage Tyson well. Tyson still struggles with dogs but at a distance can listen and work with Steph.

These two are GAMECHANGERS!
