Who is this mission aimed at?

All dogs that, while on a leash during a walk, exhibit mild, marked, or intense reactivity:

• Strong pressure on the leash, vocalizations (whining, barking), growling, charging or jumping towards the trigger.

• Signs of stress (teeth chattering, panting, ears pinned back, tail down, rigid body)

• reaction triggered by one or more stimuli (another dog, person, squirrels, bicycle, car…)

The emotional challenge of the reactive dog
When the dog loses control, it goes through a real emotional crisis:

• Overwhelmed by fear or frustration, he loses his ability to regulate himself.

• The leash restricts its movements and can increase its anxiety.

• This is not an act of insubordination, but an instinctive response to emotional overload.

Our goal is to promote an empathetic and constructive approach, based on:

1. Understanding emotions

   • decoding the signs before the crisis

   • supporting the dog in its emotional regulation

2. Positive training

   • reinforce calm and attentive behavior

   • to offer gradual and fun exercises

3. Gradual autonomy

   • reduce the animal's stress level

   • to develop the dog's confidence in the face of its triggers
