Online Reactivity Program

Enjoy Calmer and Happier Walks in 8 steps!

Is your dog barking and lunging at Dogs and/or People?
 

Are you embarrassed every time you leave the house with your dog?

 

Are your walks ruined because your dog is so out of control?
 

Are you confused by the conflicting advice out there?
 

Do you wish you could find support & answers?

Not only is this potentially dangerous to you, your dog and others around you, but it can also seriously damage your relationship and take the joy out of spending time with your dog.

​

Fearful and over reactive behavior will not go away on its own. Your dog will not grow out of it. Left untreated, it is highly likely it will

get worse in time!

​

You may have even tried other trainers and behaviourists before. with little or no progress...

But don't stress!

​

We've created a comprehensive course to support you in transforming your walks from Chaotic to Canny in just 8 steps... even if you've never been to a dog trainer in your life!

About Me

Hi, I'm Charlotte and I have been where you are today!

Despite being a confident lifelong dog owner of fairly challenging dogs, our life flipped on its head when my partner and I rescued 50kg Freya - a Tibetan Mastiff X Central Asian Shepherd. She would bark, lunge and growl at the end of her lead, and dreams of enjoying long walks in the country or a sunny afternoon in a beer garden did not happen!

​

We followed so-called 'expert' advice, but nothing seemed to help. We felt nothing but guilt, because we thought we were failing her. My partner and I would argue with each other about the best way to handle her on walks and even considered if rehoming her was the right thing to do. We also questioned if she would ever lead a fulfilling life... This just brought us more guilt!

​

Also, as a woman it was so hard to find advice and support that was tailored to me and how to handle her in a way that wasn't 'man-handling' her!

​

​​But, being a determined woman, I took matters into my own hands and went on an extremely intensive journey... I invested in education in kind methods of behaviour modification that actually work, gained hands-on experience, and changed our lives forever. I started Canny Canines to help other owners with nowhere else to turn. I've since helped hundreds of dog owners to help turn their issues with their dogs around and live calmer and happier together.

​

I look forward to helping you on your own journey!

Shirley Steed-Rourke

"Charlotte was brilliant with Alfie, her training methods helped me bond better with my dog. We couldn’t walk him as he was so reactive to everyone and everything, we can take him out with us"

Michelle Gregson

"I wish I'd found Charlotte before I found the other trainers I used before her. She has a genuine passion for her job and this is so evident when she is teaching. She only wants the best for you and your dog"
Imagine if...
  • Choose to walk your dog at any time of day, without worrying how busy it is out there

  • Calmly get ready for a walk without your dog bouncing off the walls while you try to put their harness or lead on

  • Leave the house and lock the door without getting dragged down the road

  • Engage in a chit-chat with a neighbour or friend you bump in to on your morning walk, without worrying what they think of your dog barking or lunging 

  • Walk to your local park without constantly scanning the environment for the next dog/person/cat

  • Be confident in handling your dog, without worrying the lead is going to slip out of your hands or you're going to be pulled over

  • See another dog walking towards you down the road without holding your breath and trying to find a side street street or drive to escape down because you just know your dog is going to embarrass you!

  • Take long walks in the park or country without worrying the next off lead dog is going to come and traumatise your dog or get bitten by your dog!

Imagine if you could...

... It's all possible!
