You are ready to stop fighTing with your dog.You brought a dog into your life because you wanted a trail buddy during the day & a snuggle bug at night.
A companion, a friend, a family member. So you've tolerated the leash pulling, lunging & barking if the only alternative is having to "show your dog who's boss". You will never let your dog be alone again, if the only alternative is "let them cry it out." Divergent Dog Behavior is here to assure you don't have to live with frustrating dog behaviors anymore. We are here to help dog guardians play their way to a more fulfilling life. |

"Play is foundational to bonding relationships and fostering tolerance. It's where we learn to trust and where we learn about rules of gameplay. It increases creativity and resilience, and it's all about the generation of diversity of interactions, diversity of behaviors, diversity of connections."

You are ready to start living your best life, with your best four-legged friend. What would it mean for your relationship with your dog, if you could go for a walk & not worry about them lunging at other dogs?
What would it mean for your relationship with your family, if you could leave your dog home alone for a few hours for date night? What would it mean for your relationship with your friends, if you could have them over without being caught in Furricane Fido's path of destruction? What would it mean to you, if you had the support to step into your position as an empowered pet parent and train your dream dog? |
