Finally Help Your Reactive Dog Without Force, Fear or Frustration
So That You Can Enjoy Walks
If these people can do it, so can you
I SEE YOU...
You've tried everything
- Yelling, leash corrections, or saying "NO!"
- Avoiding every dog, hiding behind cars, distracting your dog
- Carrying a bag of treats hoping he’ll finally “listen”
- Apologizing to neighbors while they give you a dirty look for not controlling your dog
All the while you feel...
- Disappointed that your dog can't behave
- Judged, ashamed and hopeless when your dog "goes off"
- Mad at your dog for not listening
- Frustrated because TikTok and Instagram hacks don't work for you
AND NOTHING HAS REALLY WORKED, HAS IT?
That’s because traditional training fails reactive dogs...
It punishes the symptoms (barking & lunging)
Doesn't address the root cause
Can't change how your dog feels
MOST WON'T TELL YOU THIS BUT
Obedience training doesn't work for reactivity
What Is Reactivity, Really?
Reactivity isn’t disobedience.
It’s not dominance.
And it’s definitely not your fault.
Reactivity is an emotional response—usually fear or excitement—to everyday stimuli like other dogs, people, or noises.
When your dog feels trapped on leash and overwhelmed, their only option is to “act scary” in hopes the scary thing goes away.
That’s why they Bark. Lunge. Growl.
But here’s the truth:
You can’t punish fear out of a dog.
You have to change how the dog feels about the trigger.
BUT MAYBE YOU'RE USING POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT
So Why Isn’t It Working?
And no, you’re not doing everything wrong.
You're doing your best
You followed the advice online
You’ve tried distracting your dog, rewarding them when they don’t bark
So why does your dog still bark, lunge, and freak out when they see another dog?
HERE'S THE COLD HARD TRUTH
Positive reinforcement without structure doesn’t work for reactive dogs.
If your dog is already over-threshold—too stressed, too scared, or too hyped up—they literally can’t learn.
👉 If your dog won’t take a treat…
👉 If they ignore you completely outside…
👉 If they bark the second they see a trigger…
It’s not because they’re stubborn.
It’s not because they need “more obedience.”
And it’s not because he's not food motivated.
It’s because they’re in survival mode—and survival mode doesn’t care about snacks.
Before you can change the emotions causing the behavior, your dog has to feel safe enough to learn.
Before you can change their behavior, you have to change how they feel outside when a trigger isn't around.
That’s what most reactive dog training misses.
And it’s exactly what the Barkaholics Program is built to fix.
WE DON'T JUST TEACH TREATS & TRIGGERS
We Teach You to Rewire Your Dog's Brain
Most reactive dog training jumps straight into exposure—"show the dog the thing, give them a treat.”
But that only works after your dog has a solid emotional foundation and if you're using food correctly.
Here’s what makes Barkaholics different:
-
We start with understanding.
You’ll learn what’s really going on inside your dog’s brain—so you stop guessing and start making real progress.
-
We stop the bleeding before we train.
You’ll finally understand how trigger stacking, threshold, and chronic stress are sabotaging your success—and what to do instead.
-
We build trust before testing.
Your dog learns to feel safe with you when outside, so you can guide them through tough moments without fear or force.
-
We teach the right kind of training—for emotional change, not just behavior change.
You’ll learn how to use counter-conditioning + desensitization (the real heart of helping a reactive dog) the right way—so your dog actually starts to feel calm, not just act calm.

WANNA HEAR
What other reactive dog owners had to say?
"Thank you for your great instructions. I've worked through the first 2 weeks of the Barkaholics Class. Sven is doing much better around dogs and human triggers. We had a big success today with two human guests and he didn't bark, growl or lunge at them. My familiy said, "Mom, it is working!" I've trained dogs before but Sven is different. Thank you for your great instruction."
Zoe A.
"We got Bosley right before the covid lockdown. He came from Armenia. We were going to do private lessons but did Barkaholics because of the lockdown. We watched the videos and followed the instructions and it worked! We're so excited that Bosley is calm around dogs now. I love taking him to horse shows around other dogs. I'm glad this program was available and affordable."

Hi, I'm Sherry, the founder of the Barkaholics Program
Like you, I struggled with my reactive dogs. I was frustrated by the lack of quality and practical training advice.
I tried countless methods and watched hours of videos, only to find vague advice like "be the leader" or "be calm assertive," with no real solutions. After much trial and error, I discovered effective steps that worked without compromising my values.
With 13 years of experience as a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, I've helped hundreds of dog owners turn their reactive dogs into calm companions. My program, Barkaholics, is designed so you don’t have to waste time or money on ineffective methods.
You don’t need extreme measures, expensive training, or harsh tools like shock collars. With Barkaholics, you’ll find a compassionate and effective approach to dog training that works.
STILL HERE?
Good, because there's something I need to tell you.
I know it's tempting to think that someone else can train your reactive dog and bring him back perfect. Just hand over thousands of dollars and trust a stranger because he said so. Sending your dog away to an "intense" training program isn't going to work. I know because worked at a board & train facility for years. I trained hundreds of dogs and gained a lot of experience but the results were disappointing to say the least.
One reason why boot-camp programs don't work is that your dog is reactive in YOUR neighborhood with YOU. The problem is tied to you and your neighborhood, because that's where your dog sees dogs.That means the solution must involve you and be in your neighborhood.
In addition, your dog needs to know that he can trust you not to put him in a situation where is feels threatened and uncomfortable. That won't happen if someone else is doing the training in a different location.
Trust is tied to you, this means that YOU are the best person to train your dog.
