Behavior Modification

From Problem Behaviors to Confidence & Calm

No more hiding your dog’s reactions. No more feeling on edge during walks or around visitors. When behavior issues disrupt your life, you don’t just want basic obedience—you need true transformation.

At Mid-Michigan K9 Academy, our Behavior Modification Program gets to the root of your dog’s triggers and builds reliable, lasting change—so you can reclaim peace, predictability, and enjoyment with your dog.

  • Root-Cause Understanding. We analyze triggers, patterns, and emotions.
  • Tailored Behavior Plans. No generic fixes. Every dog gets a unique roadmap.
  • Real‐World Behavior Control. Around distractions, in new places, under pressure.
  • A Balanced, Confident Dog & A Relaxed Owner. You’ll both feel the difference.

What’s Included

Inside the Behavior Modification Program

This program is purpose-built for serious behavior challenges—reactivity, aggression, fear, separation anxiety, and more. It uses our “Balanced & Positive” system with owner education built in.

  • Comprehensive Behavior Assessment & Trigger Mapping
  • Individualized Training Plan Based on Needs
  • Daily or High-Frequency Sessions in Controlled Environment
  • Positive Reinforcement + Balanced Training Methods
  • Real-World Simulation & Controlled Exposure
  • Owner Coaching & Maintenance Plan
  • Final Evaluation & Maintenance Path

We’re committed to real progress. With compassion, expertise, and structure, we’ll help you and your dog move past behavior issues into everyday calm and control.

Who It’s For / Who It’s Not For

Is This Program Right for Your Dog?

Great Fit If You Want:

  • A dog who reacts unpredictably to people, dogs, or stimuli
  • Support for fear, anxiety, separation problems
  • A serious, structured approach rather than casual obedience class
  • Expert guidance and a proven system for lasting change

Maybe Not Right If:

  • Your dog only needs basic obedience (see Foundational or Intermediate)
  • You’re unwilling to be part of the solution (owner involvement required)
  • You expect an overnight fix (behavior change takes time)
