Reactivity affects 1 out of 3 dogs. In this course we teach you the skills needed to never be embarrassed by your reactive dog again.
Living With A Reactive
Dog Can Be A Nightmare
My dog is 5 yrs old and unbelievably reactive to other dogs on leash; she
looks and sounds like she wants to eat them and this happens all of the time.
The problem started when he turned 1. When our country’s 6 months lockdown was lifted, Meeko became anxious in the park.Going to the shops became very stressful for the family as he got defensive and reactive to people and dogs that came near him.
I have a rescue Minnie Aussie that lived on the street before I adopted her. She barks at everything and is afraid of everyone and everything.
Does your dog's barking drive you insane?
Owning A Reactive Dog
Can Rule Your Life
Are calm walks impossible because of your dog's barking and lunging?
Have you tried to work on your dog's reactivity before without much improvement?
your dog or have visitors over
you could just relax with your pup
Doing your best to keep everyone safe, help your dog work on the reactivity and still have some fun downtime can be a challenge for everyone.
The reality is that when you have a dog with a reactivity problem, your life together becomes all about managing the freak-outs and meltdowns, not to mention always feeling like you’re not doing enough to help them.
It can be a very frustrating feeling when your dog suddenly goes from calm to barking and pulling their leash when you least expect it.
We cannot cure this discomfort by scolding our dog. In fact, scolding our dog for showing their stress through barking, lunging or growling is only going to make them more anxious. In their mind, if you scold them, then the situation probably is really critical.
Owning A Reactive Dog
Can Rule Your Life
Introducing the SpiritDog Tackling Reactivity Course, the easy-to-follow online training program that helps dog owners just like you with the right skills to calm down and accommodate your reactive dog.
Here’s How This Course
Helps You And Your Dog:
Reactivity is not a voluntary behavior. With this course you understand why your dog reacts in a certain way, how to identify what triggers them, and what you can do as an owner to calm them down and create a safe space for your dog – to just be a dog.
Understand why your dog is acting up and be able to prevent it. Which means you’ll be able to keep calm and help your dog calm down the next time it happens
Know how to counter your dogs reactive responses and help them overcome the meltdowns. So you can go on walks without worries and frustration
Live a happier, more joyful life together with your dog without frustration, stress or fear. And finally go back to having fun with your dog, instead of dreading it
“I learned more about my dog's reactivity in the first two lessons
than I did in multiple sessions with a private dog trainer.”

Many dog owners take their dogs to classes, hire trainers and purchase books and online courses, spending a lot of time and money to get to the bottom of dog reactivity behaviour. Some trainers charge 100s of dollars for such a program and most dogs will not see any improvement!
After working with thousands of in-person and online students, and struggling with this herself, our head trainer Steffi Trott created the SpiritDog Tackling Reactivity course to help owners who need results in a reasonable time frame, without having to spend hours training every day.

Here’s What Kind Of Improvements
You Can Have With 10 Minutes Of Daily
Practice*
Day #1
Ability to calm your dog through sniffing exercises Sniffing will let your dog feel more informed and therefore confident about their environment. It also is a naturally calming activity - one that in fact dogs often seek out by themselves to defuse potentially tricky situations!
Day #3
Successfully managing triggers and preventing further reactivity Different dogs can have a different number of triggers. They might be reactive towards people AND dogs. Or reactive towards people AND certain sounds AND trucks. With this training program you learn to identify, manage and prioritize which trigger to work on first to give you and your dog relief now.
Day #7
Brilliant sessions to keep your dog under their threshold around triggers A threshold is the point of "no return" at which your dog seems to lose it all. As a dog owner you need to learn how to give your dog relief from triggers before they lose it, as well as increase that threshold through proper training.
Day #25
Having the dog at a close distance to their triggers while calm and focused Now it's time to put the theory into practice. The course gives you all the information, practice and support to go from overwhelmed and confused to feeling confident about training your dog every single day so they can work through their reactivity.
