Leash Reactive German Shepherd

I had a leash-reactive German shepherd mix that was aggressive towards other dogs. Before going to Mango I had tried many of the tools that Mango uses to train him myself but I wasn't getting the results I wanted. Mango really helped me refine my training and teach me, how to teach my dog. I'm excited to attend their group sessions with my dog in a safe environment with many other dogs that have also gone through the same issues and training. My dog and I have attended group classes for several months now. He loves going and gets super excited when we arrive. He has learned to relax with other dogs around him and keeps his attention and focus on me. We are continuing to work on his social skills by introducing him to other dogs through a chain link fence. Working with Mango has shown me that my dog is an over-thinker with a high amount of anxiety towards other dogs. The lessons with Mango have enabled me to recognize my dog's emotional state and best respond to him, and guide him through stressful situations.

We started training when she was about six months old, and I quickly realized this wasn’t about training her… it was about training me to be a better handler.
