If your dog’s behavior around people feels unpredictable or concerning, early intervention matters.

Has your dog:

• Snarled, lunged, or growled at visitors?
• Become increasingly reactive toward people?
• Pressure bitten or already caused puncture wounds?

Understanding why your dog is behaving this way is the first step toward reducing risk and creating safer outcomes.

Professional Canine Bite Risk Assessment

Using her extensive experience working with aggression cases, along with the Clothier Animal Response Assessment (CARAT), Judy evaluates:

• Arousal and emotional regulation
• Sociability and social tolerance
• Fear, confidence, and resilience
• Resource guarding tendencies
• Bite risk and behavioral triggers
• Dog-to-dog relationships (when applicable)

Over the past 18 years, Judy has worked with thousands of dogs displaying aggression toward humans and has personally rehabilitated multiple rescue dogs with serious bite histories.

This is not a one-size-fits-all training approach.

A dog that appears “dominant” or “guarding” may actually be fearful, socially overwhelmed, touch-sensitive, or struggling with emotional regulation. Understanding these distinctions is critical when creating a safe and effective behavior plan.

Together, you will work toward:

• Understanding your dog’s triggers
• Reducing risk and preventing future bites
• Improving safety and management
• Building clearer communication and trust
• Creating a realistic training plan tailored to your dog

This service is strongly recommended for dogs who have:

• Pressure bitten
• Caused two or more puncture wounds
• Displayed escalating threatening behavior toward people or children
