Using ethical, science-based strategies to reduce fear
Fear & Anxiety Programs
At Wise Canine, our behavior modification programs are expertly crafted to alleviate fear and anxiety in your beloved pet. Through compassionate and science-based strategies, we prioritize addressing the root causes of your dog's fears. Specializing in working with dogs who struggle with fears of handling, grooming, veterinary procedures, people, or other animals, we tailor our programs to meet your dog's specific needs. By collaborating with owners to develop coping skills around your dog's triggers, our goal is to cultivate a sense of peace and reassurance, knowing that your dog is experiencing reduced fear, stress, and anxiety.
