The Calm Down! program is for dogs who:
- React strongly to visitors or changes in the household
- Struggle with noise sensitivity or outdoor disturbances
- Experience tension between other dogs or people in the home
- Have difficulty relaxing or settling down
Our goal is not simply to stop the behavior, but to address the root causes by building secure attachment, safety, and connection. Guardians are full partners in the process, with equal say in how the program progresses.

The Impact of our Program:
Katie L. & Skye
"Jenn helped me with my highly reactive herding dog who struggled with BIG emotions. My dog has gone from reacting to the slightest movement with aggressive herding behaviors to being able to redirect those emotions by focusing on me for stability and reassurance. The improvement in both my dog’s quality of life and mine has been incredible. Now, we’re a team — helping each other manage and navigate big emotions around her triggers, both in and out of the home. Life feels bigger and brighter for both of us. Thank you, Jenn!"
Jennifer J. & Betty
"All our dogs have been rescues and we’ve dealt with a fair number of dogs who’ve been impacted by trauma, but our most recent, Betty, a cane corso had aggression issues beyond anything we were able to handle. We were desperate for a solution. We received a referral to Jenn’s dogs and can’t begin to describe the difference in this dog! She’s a completely different animal after WE received Jenn’s training. We needed to learn how to teach Betty to manage her stress. The results are nothing short of amazing!"
Gail L. & Lola
"I have been very happy with Jenn of "Jenn's Dog Training". Her program 'Calm Down', has been very helpful with my fearful doggie. Jenn is very knowledgeable, about dog behavior, and has given me exercises to continue with my dog. Thank you Jenn!!"
