Chaos to Calm: Reactivity Roadmap

Meghan

If you are struggling with dog reactivity & don’t know where to begin with training, this course will help you & your dog so much. This course provides you with the tools to better understand your dog’s mindset, enhance your relationship with your dog & sets you up for success so you know how to approach reactivity training. Lizzy is an excellent teacher & explains topics in ways that are easy to understand & practical to try out & maintain with your dog & your lifestyle. I love that there are video examples of her demonstrating the topic at hand. I’ve learned more from this course than I have working with other trainers in person. If you trust the process & you are consistent with following the modules you will see improvement. I am half way done the course & already see incredible improvement with my dog’s engagement & relationship with me. I highly recommend this course! :)

I love her training style- creating a positive environment for both my dog and myself to learn. Without the training I was not setting my dog up properly to pass triggers on walks- now I know how to navigate them and set myself and my dog up for success on a walk. We have only been utilizing direction changes for loose leash walking for a brief period of time and I can tell with using them consistently my dog is starting to better understand - hey if I pull my owner we stop and go a different direction. My dog will now start to walk in front of me- sense the leash pressure and look at me and slow down. Now we are not perfect but I now feel like I have the tools to build on our training

Lizzy is the best! She is so clear with how to handle any pup's training demands. She starts with the very basic and builds into hard situations. This course has a lot of great information on all reactive styles. If you are struggling with your training, she is a zoom call away from figuring out your training needs. This course has given me hope that we will soon be meeting our goals for a more balanced pup.

The Chaos to Calm program has been a game changer! I'm embarrassed to say how many trainers we've hired and how much money we've spent to always end up back at square 1. I know this is a "me" problem and Lizzy is the first trainer who has made it click. Between the step by step video tutorials, the weekly phone calls, always being open to answering any questions, and (most importantly) knowing she's been in our shoes and there's never ending sense of judgment... We've made more progress with our dog with Lizzy's help than any of the other trainers we've worked with. Things aren't perfect, and we're still making our way through the course, but we're leaps and bounds ahead of where we were a few months ago!

Lizzy ability to break down reactivity into smaller components allows you to have a greater understanding of what it is you need to do to help your dog through their partiuclar reactivity . We've purposly taken our time going through the course so that we know we have a solid foundation before moving to the next section - the online component is such a great way to progress through the training and is easy to follow.

This program is amazing for busy people since the lessons are there to access any time and can go over at my own pace. There’s so many helpful tips and videos that makes you really understand your dog’s brain! Definitely worth it and would highly recommend to anyone!

Kelsey

I love that this program teaches my dog how to work through her big emotions and reactions on her own instead of punishing her. This has helped my dog be calmer in all aspects. Lizzy is amazing with providing ideas for integrating training into everyday things that doesn’t make it feel like I have to dedicate countless hours to train. She also gives great tips for finding small wins every day and building upon those to work with where your dog is at and how to grow from there. The lunch and learn sessions are so helpful for understanding the root cause of my dogs reactivity and the community of other dog owners makes it feel less alone.

This program is so good. Is my dog perfect, no, not yet, but we are making progress! The videos and explanations that Lizzy offers are straight forward and specific to what we need to be working on. We are working on mindset of both myself and my dog and we are working on specific behaviors. I am so happy I found Lizzy and so thankful that she has put this training together.

Pat

Follow Lizzy’s lead. She’s an obvious dog lover who has been there with her own reactive dog and understands how hard it can feel. In this course, I got the information and encouragement I needed to work through issues with my reactive dog broken down into step by step bites.

Caitlin

This course has helped me to better understand my dog and how to create a life that helps him to feel more at ease. It helped me to realize my priorities and to understand him better. I would definitely recommend this course for those with an excitable dog!

Pawsitive Vibes “Chaos to Calm: Reactivity Roadmap” is a wealth of knowledge, expertise, and answers! The course helps struggling dog owners to understand the root of behaviors to in turn productively mitigate them. Through videos, worksheets, and reading, you will walk away with a remarkable foundation to enhance your relationship with your dog and set them up for lifetime success. I cannot recommend this whole experience enough!

Elizabeth

Lizzy at Pawsitive Vibes Training is knowledgeable and it’s obvious how much she cares about animals. Her approach is calm and loving, and really accounts for what the dog is experiencing internally and externally. It’s a welcome difference from other trainers I’ve tried.

HUGE win with Oso settling in less than 10 minutes on his place bed after a successful loose leash walking session! We encountered a trigger but we were able to not get a reaction with movement. It was so great and I’m so proud of him! We ended our session with play and we both were so happy at the end 🥰

I also wanted to take a moment to thank you for creating the Chaos to Calm program. It truly covers EVERYTHING from training your dog, to shifting the owner’s mind too. To see things differently and not be too hard on ourselves on those tough days. And not care about the opinions of others as long as I know I’m trying my best to do what’s best for me and Astro. I think I cried through the entire Mindset Shifts section. But It made me look at the glass half full. So thank you!

Before we started Chaos to Calm - we definitely weren't equipped from a training or knowledge stand point to handle a reactive dog. We have owned dogs previously, but they weren't reactive - so this world is very new to us. Walks were chaotic, a lot of pulling, lunging and just simply not enjoyable. Overall we felt a bit lost and upset that perhaps we did something wrong in his puppy stage. Lizzy's course has provided us with the knowledge and tools to better manage his reactivity and help him navigate with his triggers.

It is a step-by-step plan that allows me to understand Robin, have tools and strategies to work with him, let's me understand myself and truly has often made me cry with relief at someone who finally, finally is honest with me and understands what I am feeling and dealing with. Plus Lizzy never has made me feel like I am the problem that I don't know what I am doing - of course I am a big part of the problem, but that doesn't help to have trainers say that to you - Lizzy gets it and that...is huge.

Its like blueprint to learning how to live with a calm dog. Imagine a training plan for a race. You have run days, cross training days, rest days. You follow it so you can be prepared for the race. It's like that. You work with your dog in different areas so that when you go out into the world with your dog, you both are a little more prepared for what you encounter.
