Help your dog feel safer and more at ease on every walk.
Reactivity Support Walks help your dog cope with the world around them with more confidence and less overwhelm. We focus on emotional regulation, thoughtful handling, and more predictable walks for dogs who bark, lunge, freeze, vocalize, or get overwhelmed by triggers like other dogs, people, bikes, scooters, or movement around them.
 
Reactivity Support Walks are currently available only to clients within my in-home service area:
Ballard, Blue Ridge, Crown Hill, Fremont, Green Lake, Greenwood, Loyal Heights, Phinney Ridge, Sunset Hill, and West Woodland.
 
Each walk is built around your dog's individual needs and may include:
 
Trigger and threshold awareness
Calm movement and decompression
Pattern games and predictable routines
Real-time handling and management support
Confidence building around the environment
Easing overwhelm and nervous system load
 
What's included:
 
A 30-minute virtual meet and greet for new clients
A 30-minute structured support walk
A written update after your initial package
Personalized handling and management strategies
 
Best for:
 
Dogs who bark or lunge on leash
Dogs who struggle to regulate around triggers
Dogs who become over-aroused during walks
Dogs building confidence around people or other dogs
Dogs transitioning from intensive behavior work into maintenance support
 
Some dogs, especially those sensitive to unfamiliar people or places, do better with a slower introduction so we can build safety and trust first.
