CLIENTS

Proper socialization ~

Not every dog is friendly. Some dogs are fearful, reactive, or recovering from trauma. True socialization is not about interaction, it's about exposure and neutrality. Help your dog remain calm and confident in the presence of new stimuli, rather than teaching them to seek engagement or attention. Reward calm curiosity not chaos.

Set up the environment for success. Prevent the unwanted. Intervene early at the first hint. Your timing is key. The better your information the better the behavior.

Create distance, redirect with practiced patterns. See the dog your dog sees, adjust the distance.

Reinforce the behaviors you want, proof and keep sessions short and sweet.
