Hi 👋 I'm Anya, owner and Behavior Consultant at Well Mannered Mutt.

Would you just like your dog to lie down next to you at the coffee shop and need a little guidance getting there? Look no further. With over 15 years of experience fostering over 300 pit bulls from diverse shelter backgrounds, I've gathered invaluable insights that I'm eager to share with you.

​​

Our specialized course is tailored to address the needs of dogs that tend to become excessively excited, jumpy, and uncertain about how to settle down. While it might seem overwhelming, especially if your dog lacks a strong training foundation, we only require 15 minutes a day, broken into brief three-minute sessions. Learn to reward positive actions, shifting your dog towards calmness. Blend this approach with enriching activities for a harmonious partnership. Transform your dog's behavior and strengthen your bond—join us today!

In This Course, You Will Learn      

The Relaxed Protocol

You will gain access to the Relaxation Protocol, developed by board-certified Vet Behaviorist Chris Pachel. This protocol, adapted from Karen Overall's original relaxation protocol, is a 15-day tool designed to teach dogs how to achieve stillness in both their bodies and minds.

Understanding Rewards & Markers

Learn the art of shaping behavior using clickers or reward markers and discover effective techniques for reinforcing behaviors to enhance the likelihood of their recurrence in the future.

Building On/Off Switch

Discover strategies for intentionally creating moments of overarousal and hyperactivity, followed by transitioning to calm behaviors to optimize your training sessions. Additionally, learn effective techniques to calm your dog when they become excessively energetic and need to settle down.

Building A Down On The Mat

Learn the process of introducing a mat behavior and progressing it into a down-stay, navigating through distractions, and even leaving the room.

Tethering

Learn what tethering is and how you set up a tethering station in your home to uplevel your training skills and manage multi-dog households

The Power of Calming Enrichment and Meeting Dog's Needs

Explore the significant role of calming enrichment in promoting relaxation and alleviating stress in dogs. 

and much more!

My goal is to help you transform your dog into a calm, patient dog while in an overstimulating environment
