Many behavioral issues in dogs stem from a dysregulated nervous system.
About this Event

If you have an anxious or overstimulated dog, Talk Without Touch is overstimulating, confusing, and activates the sympathetic nervous system.

However... Touch Without Talk can soothe an overactive mind.

Petting is just petting, but truly getting present with your dog, by breathing and grounding yourself first, can convey calmness, peace, and the unconditional love that you and your dog both deserve.

We offer two ways to participate in this class:– With your dog: $35 + Eventbrite fees– Audit without your dog: $25 + Eventbrite fees

About the instructor:

Leah Lykos studied Natural Dog Training with founder Kevin Behan in Newfane, Vermont. Now she's on a mission to help people discover the truly enriching connection they can have with their dogs. Leah's methods include positive, motivational, and somatic-based exercises that create trust, safety, and a lasting bond between dog and owner.
