From Heel to Heal

Dog + Human Training Workshops

The root cause of dog problem behaviors isn't whether or not they know sit, down or heel. The root cause is nervous system dysregulation. The reactivity, leash pulling, overexcitement, fearfulness (and more) are symptoms of a deeper disruption within your dog's physiology. The Adventure Hounds approach has a focus on healing, not simply heeling. This workshop will outline how to create a regulated nervous system for the foundation to the training you do, as an owner or trainer.

Learn how dog training goes beyond "heel", "sit" and "down", and into nervous system healing.
