SAFE & Less Distracted Workshop

 SAFE & Less Distracted Workshop

Why Your Dog Isn’t Ignoring You And What Actually Helps

Does your dog:

  • Refuse treats outside?

  • Explode at sudden triggers?

  • Freeze, pull, spin, or act silly when overwhelmed?

  • Seem fine one minute and over-the-top the next?

Here’s the truth: Your dog isn’t distracted. Your dog is trying to survive.

Fear flips the nervous system into fight, flight, freeze, fawn, or fool-around mode. When that happens, the thinking brain goes offline. And no amount of “sit” or “watch me” will fix a nervous system that doesn’t feel safe.

That’s why I created SAFE & Less Distracted Workshop.

Join us March 3rd at 11 AM (Central)

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

  • Why distraction is a symptom of emotional overload

  • The early signs your dog is nearing threshold

  • How distance and exit strategies create safety

Help Your Dog Feel Safe Enough to Focus

Your dog isn’t ignoring you. They’re overwhelmed.

If your dog shuts down, scans the environment, refuses treats, or seems to “forget everything” the moment distractions appear, you’re not doing anything wrong.

Your dog’s nervous system is doing exactly what it was designed to do: protect them.

That’s where SAFE comes in.

The 4-part SAFE framework:

  • Security -  emotional and physical safety

  • Attachment -  trust, connection, co-regulation

  • Function - skills that help dogs in daily life

  • Environment - thoughtful choices that reduce overwhelm

This workshop isn’t about control!

It’s about giving your dog the skills and support they need to feel safe enough to focus.


The SAFE Framework isn't only for fearful, reactive dogs!

SAFE can be used with easily excitable, fizzy dogs and service dogs too!


If you’re tired of feeling embarrassed, frustrated, or unsure how to help your dog in public…

This is your starting point.

And if you’re ready to go deeper, this workshop opens the door to the full SAFE Start Mini-Class, where we practice these skills step by step. You'll receive a 50% discount on this class if you purchase as you are signing up for this workshop or during the LIVE workshop.

The Workshop is FREE to attend live with a replay available for 3 days following for those who can't attend live. Sign up asap so you don't miss this chance to see if the SAFE Framework is right for you!


Because when dogs feel safe distraction fades, and connection grows.


This workshop also comes with a downloadable SAFE Dog Blueprint to give you 4 key lessons in an easy to read E-book that you can review time and time again while learning to support your dog.
