Aggressive Dogs

Say goodbye to conflict and aggression.

We know firsthand the heartache, fear, and inescapable stress that comes with having a human aggressive dog. 

Whether it’s trips to the ER, cancelled plans, or the embarrassment of your dog’s behaviour, it’s draining. But change is possible.

With unique coaching and effective methods that focus on both you and your dog, we can help you move past conflict and fear and towards a safe and joyful coexistence. 

At Flash of Brilliance, we help dedicated guardians with issues such as

  • Growling and snapping or biting at guardians and family members

  • Protecting and guarding food and favorite toys, chews, beds and people

  • Body slamming and barking aggressively at guardians and family members

  • Biting leashes, and at people’s clothes and bags

  • Controlling movements of guardians and family members

and more!

  • Curated Training Plans

    At Flash of Brilliance, every team is an individual. Each training plan is created with the specific dog and guardian’s needs in mind.
    We take pride in finding creative solutions for complex problems, and in working with people of different cultures, disabilities, learning histories, and goals.

  • Evidence Based & Effective

    It is important to us that our training programs are evidence based. Because of this, our methods are effective and ethical. We refer to the disciplines of behaviour analysis, ethology, neurobiology, psychology, and beyond to understand and treat complex behaviour problems, and raise healthy and happy dogs.

  • Prioritized Emotional Support

    Having an aggressive dog is hard. We know firsthand how disappointing, frustrating, and scary it can be. One of our top priorities is supporting guardians through the entire training process.
    Your frustrations, fears, glimmers, and joys are always front of mind.
