February Workshop: Reframing & Redirecting Workshop

Turning Struggles Into Strengths Series

In our live workshop, we’ll teach you how to reframe your dog’s behavior, understand their emotions, and redirect them in a supportive way.

Behavior is communication. Barking, lunging, or “ignoring” you doesn’t mean your dog is bad, it means they’re trying to tell you something.

February 3rd at 11AM Central!
