Our Functional Behavior Program is designed to understand your dog’s behavior using thorough behavior assessments and data collection. We delve into the underlying reasons behind your dog's behavior in order to determine the function of it. Our approach focuses on identifying the root causes of undesirable behaviors, whether it's excessive barking, aggression, or anxiety. By understanding the motivations behind these behaviors, we tailor a personalized training program to address them effectively. With the customized training program, we help your dog learn new behaviors to replace the undesirable ones. Our goal is not just to suppress unwanted behaviors but to foster a harmonious relationship between you and your pet, built on trust and communication. At The Grateful Dog, we believe that every dog has the potential to learn and grow. With our Functional Behavior Program, we're here to guide you and your dog every step of the way towards a happier, well-behaved, and more grateful dog.
