Behavior Modification at All About Dogs

At All About Dogs, we offer specialized behavior modification programs designed to address more complex challenges such as fear-based behaviors, anxiety, aggression, and destructive tendencies.

Led by Renée deVilliers, our head trainer and owner, this program is built on a truly unique and deeply informed approach. With over 35 years of experience and dedication to understanding canine behavior, Renée focuses on identifying the root cause of each behavior—rather than simply managing symptoms.

Her methodology follows a pure positive, science-based approach, ensuring that training is not only effective, but also humane and sustainable. The goal is to create long-lasting results, while helping you gain a deeper understanding of your dog and how they learn.

What to Expect

Some dogs require more than basic training—they need a personalized, focused plan tailored to their individual needs.

Our behavior modification program includes:

• One-on-one private sessions
• A detailed assessment of your dog’s behavior, environment, and history
• Clear, step-by-step guidance to address specific concerns
• Support for issues such as:
  • Fear and anxiety
  • Aggression
  • Reactivity
  • Destructive behaviors

Each session is fully customized to both you and your dog, ensuring a thoughtful and effective path forward.

A Comprehensive, Compassionate Approach

We believe that real change comes from understanding—not suppression.

Through our program, you will:

• Learn how to read and understand your dog’s behavior
• Build better communication and trust
• Develop practical skills to create lasting change at home and in real-life situations

Behavior modification can also be paired with our group training programs to strengthen foundational skills, build confidence, and support long-term success.
