We’re sorry, but our group classes do not cover behavior challenges such as severe on-leash reactivity (barking, growling, and/or lunging at others while on leash), excessive barking, separation anxiety, confinement distress, extreme fearfulness of people or dogs, or aggression. If you are experiencing any of these behaviors, please check out our private training options.
