Aggression board & train PROGRAMS

Real Solutions for Dogs With Serious Behavior Challenges

Every dog is capable of learning, and every situation has a reason behind it. At Proformance K9 Pets, we specialize in helping dogs with aggression issues—including reactivity, resource guarding, fear-based aggression, defensive behavior, and unpredictable outbursts. Our Aggression Board & Train program is designed to create meaningful, lasting change through structure, clarity, and professional handling.

We focus on rebuilding trust, reducing stress, and teaching your dog how to make better choices—even in the situations that challenge them most.

  • Controlled environments to work through triggers safely

  • Foundation obedience that supports behavioral change

  • Customized behavior modification for your dog’s specific issues

Common Behaviors We Work With

Your dog doesn’t need to be “bad” to need help. Many dogs simply feel overwhelmed, confused, or unsafe.

We address:

• Leash reactivity (lunging, barking, snarling)

• Human-directed aggression

• Dog-aggression or selective aggression

• Fear-based or defensive behavior

• Resource guarding

• Barrier frustration

• Territory issues

• Handling sensitivity

• Unpredictable outbursts or bite history (case-by-case)

If you’re seeing any of these—ear pinning, freezing, growling, snapping—we’re here to help you understand why it’s happening and what your dog needs next.

What This Program

Includes

3–4 Weeks of Intensive Training

Your dog lives with us during the training process so we can work daily on structure, obedience, and behavioral patterns.

Behavior Assessment & Training Plan

Every dog has a different reason for their behavior. We evaluate your dog’s triggers, stress levels, and underlying motivations before training begins.

Foundation Obedience for Stability

Your dog learns clear, reliable commands that become the backbone for reducing aggression:

Heel ~ Sit ~ Down ~ Place ~ Recall ~ Impulse control ~ Leash manners ~ Structured routines

Controlled Exposure Work

Once your dog is stable, we begin targeting specific triggers in a controlled, safe environment.

Confidence Building

Many aggressive dogs lack confidence. We rebuild this carefully through structured routines and predictable expectations.

Clear Communication Training

Your dog learns how to understand what is expected, what earns rewards, and what behaviors are unacceptable.

Owner Transfer Sessions

At the end of training, you will learn everything your dog learned—step-by-step—so you can confidently maintain progress at home.

Who This Program Is For

  • Dogs who react aggressively toward people or other dogs

  • Dogs who struggle in new environments or around triggers

  • Owners needing professional support, not DIY videos

  • Dogs with escalating or unpredictable behavior

  • Dogs who need structured, hands-on training

This program is not for:

✘ dogs under 5 months

✘ medically unstable dogs

✘ certain types of extreme aggression (case-by-case evaluation required)

If your dog has a bite history, we will discuss the circumstances and determine if this program is the correct path.
