Good questions
Before you begin.
Can reactivity be cured?
Be wary of anyone who says so. Many dogs improve a lot, but progress depends on the dog, the triggers and consistency at home.
Where should a reactive dog walk?
Quiet times and wide spaces help. Narrow shared paths and busy events can put other dogs too close.
Will my dog need a muzzle?
Some plans use basket muzzle training as a safety tool, introduced gradually. A trainer should explain why.
Which methods should I avoid?
Anything that relies on fear, pain or intimidation can worsen a worried dog. Look for plans built on distance and rewards.
