Our services.
Reactivity Rehab Programme
We are hugely passionate here at Bridgwater Dog Training about working with reactive dogs and their guardians. Our aim is to provide ethical and effective options to help rehabilitate reactive dogs and rebuild the dog-human bond, so that you can enjoy time together again.
We have a stooge dog team who work hard to help reactive dogs build confidence, calmness and social skills. For more information on our reactivity programmes, head over to the reactive dog rehabilitation page on our website.
