Behavior Modification Training

Rebuilding Trust. Restoring Peace. Transforming Lives.

If you’re here, chances are you’re struggling with more than just basic obedience. Maybe your dog’s behavior feels unpredictable… maybe you’re walking on eggshells… or maybe you’ve been told your dog is “too much” or “beyond help.”

At KNINE, we don’t believe in giving up. We believe in getting to the root of the behavior—and helping you and your dog build a better life together.

Our Behavior Modification Program is designed for dogs experiencing anxiety, reactivity, aggression, fear, or other challenging behaviors. This is more than training—it’s transformation, built on trust, structure, and science-based strategies.

⚠️ What We Help With

 

Every dog is different, but common issues we work with include:

🚫 Leash Reactivity (lunging, barking)
🚫 Aggression Toward Dogs or People
🚫 Resource Guarding
🚫 Separation Anxiety
🚫 Excessive Barking or Destructive Behavior
🚫 Fear-Based Responses (cowering, avoidance, freezing)
🚫 Overstimulation or Inability to Settle

We approach each behavior as a symptom—not just something to stop, but something to understand and resolve.

🧠 What Makes This Different

 

Behavior modification is not obedience training. It’s about identifying triggers, rewriting patterns, and creating new emotional responses through patience, strategy, and consistency.

You’ll learn:

 

✅ How to read your dog’s body language and stress signals
✅ How to safely manage situations before they escalate
✅ How to change your dog’s emotional response to triggers
✅ How to rebuild trust and connection
✅ Clear, humane training methods backed by science

We’re not here to “fix” your dog—we’re here to help you help them heal.

This program is for:

  • Dogs with behavior challenges beyond basic training
