Stranger Danger Class Package | Virtual Private Consult + Stranger Danger Class - $550.00
Stranger Danger Class x 1
60 Minute Initial Stranger Danger Consultation with Ashley Alden VIRTUAL x 1
Purchase this package if you are new to Happy Dog Institute and/or have not had a private session with Ashley regarding this issue before (or within the last two years).
WHO this class is a good fit for:
-Dogs that are nervous around human strangers - this may look like hesitancy to approach, cowering/hiding, or rushing towards/barking when meeting new people. Ideally these dogs are interested in interacting with strangers but don’t have the skills to do so.
-Dogs who are fearful or reactive towards humans (strangers)
-Dogs who need help building confidence around new people
Guardians who are committed to positive reinforcement training and who do not/have not used aversives (punishment, shock collars, pronged collars, etc.)
-Guardians who can commit to doing required coursework and managing dog-human interactions, and who understand that slow and steady wins the race!
-Guardians who are able to commit to at least one to two hours of initial virtual sessions (an individual assessment/consult and an hour-long virtual group orientation)
Who this class is NOT a good fit for (we will offer a private training package):
-Dogs who have separation anxiety and cannot be left alone in the car
-Dogs who have a severe or significant bite history (contact us if you are unsure about this)
