Program Overview
WHAT TO EXPECT
At GTX K9 Dog Training, we specialize in helping dogs that bark, lunge, growl, or show aggression when encountering other dogs, people, or distractions. This program is fully tailored to each dog — no two plans are the same. The specifics of your dog's program will be discussed during the evaluation, where Henry assesses your dog's unique triggers, temperament, and behavioral history to build a custom approach.
We use structured behavior modification and controlled exposure in real-life settings such as parks, sidewalks, and busy areas. We also educate owners throughout the process, giving you the tools and knowledge needed to maintain progress at home. We gradually introduce your dog to their triggers in a safe, controlled manner while changing their emotional response, building confidence over time.

The Standard
THE GTX K9
DIFFERENCE.
Most trainers avoid reactive dogs. Henry specializes in them. GTX K9's behavior program doesn't mask symptoms — it rewires your dog's emotional response to triggers through careful desensitization and counter-conditioning. Every session is conducted in real-world environments because that's where the problems happen. You'll learn to read your dog's body language, manage thresholds, and build a relationship based on trust instead of fear. No dog is too far gone.
REACTIVITY & BEHAVIOR TRAINING Questions
FREQUENTLY ASKED
The program includes 3–5 customized behavior modification sessions. The exact number depends on your dog's specific triggers, severity, and progress.
Yes. Henry specializes in aggression and reactivity. Many clients come to GTX K9 after being told their dog is too aggressive for other programs — and see real results.
No dog is too far gone. GTX K9's behavior program works with dogs that have failed other training methods by addressing the root cause rather than just managing symptoms.
Barking and lunging on leash, freezing or fixating on other dogs, guarding food or toys, and overreacting to guests are the most common signs. If walks feel stressful or you're managing your dog instead of enjoying them, it's time for a professional assessment.
The program addresses aggression toward people or animals, leash reactivity (barking, lunging, pulling), separation anxiety, resource guarding, and fear-based or frustration-based reactions.
