Got a "challenging" dog?

Not every dog is easy-breezy—and that’s completely normal.

If your pup struggles with reactivity, fear, or frustration, don’t panic. You’re not alone, and your dog isn’t broken 🧡

Here are 5 gentle, real-world tips to help you BOTH succeed:

  1. Work with the dog in front of you.
  2. Celebrate the small wins (even a 2-second sit).
  3. Set them up for success, not failure.
  4. Go at their pace—slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
  5. Kindness works especially on the tough days.

    ✨ You’ve got this. And your dog does too.
