As soon as your dog sees another dog in the distance they become alert, trying to get them to move away is impossible, then they start loudly barking, they’re jerking and pulling your arm as they lunge, and you’re desperately hoping that the other dog is on lead on not about to run up to your dog because then they may growl or bite.
With Barky to Brilliant you can instead feel confident to walk your dog, go on adventures to new locations and stop in at the pub or a cafe.
From Barky to Brilliant Includes:
- How to stop your dog barking and lunging from TODAY
- Our tried and tested SET technique to train your “take anywhere” dog
- Over 2.5 hours of video lessons in manageable modules to work through at your own pace.
- Insight and support from reactivity expert, Dr Anna Muir, who has helped hundreds of owners achieve their goal of stress-free walks.
- Science-backed, reward-based techniques to give long-term success so you can be confident in any situation.
- A community of supportive people going through the same thing as you – you’re not alone and you can succeed!
“I am so pleased with the progress Luna has made. Before we started training she was incredibly reactive to both dogs and people, lunging and barking uncontrollably and I was even bitten by her myself on multiple occasions. I would absolutely dread taking her out and after most walks I would come home crying and covered in scratch marks from her jumping up at me. It was absolute hell.
It has taken time, patience and hard work but I can now take her out and walk her like a normal dog! There is still a little way to go as she does have her moments but they are few and far between and I now know how to deal with them and so does she. Luna used to absolutely hate going for a walk, she would even hide when she saw her harness but now she is all waggy tails and running to the door. We both absolutely love our walks and we get to go on so many adventures that beforehand would have been impossible. I finally have a happy, calm dog who loves to sniff and explore and it is absolutely brilliant!”

What do owners have to say?
You are not alone on this journey. Anna has helped hundreds of owners to improve their relationships with their dogs, and to safely and positively modify their behaviours when needed.
Enjoyed every moment of Ollie’s training. Anna is a delight so patient, calm, so easy to understand and follow her methods. It is now a pleasure walking Ollie without him pulling and barking.
This would have been impossible to achieve ourselves.
Highly recommend.
Thank you.
Sarah and I are delighted with Star’s progress in such a relatively short time. Anna helps you understand, and tune into, your dog’s psyche! Star’s behaviour is unrecognisable from the worried, reactive large puppy who first attended sessions. Would highly recommend.
Anna was great at helping both our girls improve their behaviour. She introduced various methods which we are able to use to work with them at home. Her knowledge of dog behaviour is vast and it was a pleasure to have her working with our girls both of whom are continuing to improve especially when we are out and about with them. We highly recommend you try Forests and Fetch.
