Three Decades of Success! Thousands of Dogs!

UPWARD Dogology™ is an evidence-based method proven to address behaviors associated with:

Anxiety
Aggression
Adolescent Behaviors -
jumping, nipping, thieving, refusing to listen, chewing, messing, bullying etc

Adopted Dog Challenges
Behaviors Common with Adult Dogs

It is common for reinforcement-based methods, using rewards, association, distraction, and desensitization to be effective during puppyhood, yet ineffective with adolescent and adopted/rescued dogs, based on brain development and the psychology driving these methods. BUT WAIT - this does not mean your only option is negative or harmful methods.

There is no “one right way” to work with a dog.

If you feel defeated, or as though you have no choice but to surrender, medicate, apply unsavory techniques, or euthanize your dog, you are not alone. If you are frustrated by the limitations of commonly recommended dog training techniques, it is not your fault!

UPWARD Dogology is the only scientifically proven method adhering to the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The formula is easy to apply, logical and effective.
The only “tool” used is your dog’s brain!

The program is one-on-one (not generic material) and is available VIRTUAL or LIVE
