What shapes a coaching program
- How long the habit has been practiced, since older habits take longer to change.
- The number of sessions and how often the trainer checks in.
- Whether coaching takes place at home, on walks or both.
- The trigger involved, such as other dogs, visitors or sudden noise.
- How much management, like gates or window film, is part of the plan.

Good questions
Before you begin.
Can reactivity be fixed quickly?
Be careful with anyone who promises fast results. Change comes from patient practice, and a good trainer sets honest expectations.
Should I see a veterinarian first?
If the behavior is new or sudden, yes. Pain or illness can change how a dog acts.
What does a session look like?
Often a mix of coaching you on handling skills and practicing with your dog at a distance from the trigger.
How do I know it is working?
Look for your dog recovering faster, noticing triggers at a greater distance and looking to you for direction.
