Leash reactive dogs lunge and bark at triggers due to feelings of fear, frustration, or anxiety. Counter-conditioning - changing your dog's emotional responses to their triggers - is the key to reducing your dog's leash reactive behavior toward people, skateboards, bicycles, or other dogs.

These training exercises will pair the presence of a trigger with positive things like treats and praise, so your dog learns to feel relaxed and calm instead of agitated and upset. Just as important, your dog will learn that you're there to guide them through difficult and scary situations.
