This involves observing their behavior, identifying triggers, and understanding the specific circumstances that elicit aggressive responses. Our experienced trainers employ scientific methods to gain insights into your dog's temperament and aggression triggers.

Controlled Exposure and Desensitization
In some cases, controlled exposure to triggering stimuli is necessary to desensitize your dog to aggression triggers. Under the guidance of our trainers, your dog will be gradually exposed to the triggers in a controlled and safe environment. This process helps them learn alternative responses and reduces their reactivity toward the triggers.
