About Reactive Rover
Did you know reactivity isn't solved with obedience training? That's because reactivity isn't an "obedience" issue. It is an emotional response! Instinct Canine's Reactive Rover course is designed to help you understand why dogs struggle with reactive behaviours, and how to best support your dog to manage this behaviour safely. Our goal is to teach your dog to change their emotional response to triggers that cause reactivity. Please note: 1. Additional lessons may be necessary depending on the severity of your dog's reactivity. Cost and number of additional sessions will be determined on a case-by-case basis. 2. Instinct Canine can only take on a handful of reactive dogs at a time to ensure we can provide you with our full support. Therefore, space is limited. 3. Equipment we may explore: prong collar, muzzles (basketweave), e-collar (e-collar technologies) |

What to Expect from Reactive Dog Training
Instinct Canine's Reactive Rover course is four weeks in length and located at our Burlington training facility. The course is offered on a 1:1 basis to ensure the safety of the dog, handler, and Instinct Canine trainers. Reactivity is a very nuanced behaviour that takes time to work through, and each dog is different. In some cases, it may take years of work for a dog to modify reactive behaviours. Instinct Canine will provide you with the first steps to manage your dog's reactivity, and we will customize the training to your dog's ability and their success rate. We will also be there for you and your dog beyond those 4 weeks to keep the momentum going!
Our Reactive Rover lessons are designed to help you navigate reactive tendencies in a controlled environment. Led by a certified ICT trainer, lessons are up-to 60 minutes in length and you will receive workbooks to continue your progress between sessions. A 20% deposit is required to reserve and guarantee your reservation.

What our Reactive Rover clients have to say
"Anna Marie was amazing and we couldn't be more pleased with the Reactive Rovers program, which is a series of private lessons. Rudy was extremely reactive and high strung. He barked excessively in the house and had become increasingly aggressive on walks, lunging at other dogs and going banana pancakes. Anna Marie quickly analyzed his behaviour and provided strategies that worked immediately. Each session brought more improvements. Now Rudy not only walks calmly but also is generally better behaved. His barking is minimal, he sits calmly beside me, and more obedient overall. Thank you Anna Marie. You are honestly a life saver." -Margaret |
