Is your dog reactive, displaying excessive barking, lunging, or anxious behavior? Our specialized reactivity training at North Shore Paws aims to understand and mitigate these reactions, fostering a calm and composed companion on Long Island.
Understanding Canine Reactivity
Reactivity in dogs often stems from fear, anxiety, or past experiences. It manifests as excessive barking, pulling, or even aggressive displays toward other dogs or stimuli, making walks or encounters stressful.
Experiencing your dog's reactive behavior can be overwhelming. Whether it's during walks, encounters with other dogs, or reactions to specific triggers, these behaviors disrupt your dog's calm demeanor and may lead to challenging situations.
