Reactive & Aggressive Dog Training in Everett, WA
Living with a reactive or aggressive dog is stressful and isolating. K9 Reform's Behavior Modification program gives you and your dog a structured, non-judgmental path to calmer walks and safer daily life.
Our honest stance on aggression
True aggression is about ongoing management, clear boundaries and reliable tools. We don't claim to "cure" dogs. We equip you with the practical skills, neutrality and confidence to live safely together.

"Millie was super reactive and did not walk well on leash. Working with Mari changed our life."Verified client review, Millie (rescue pup, Private Lessons)

Built for dogs that aren't "dog park friendly"
Our Everett facility has three separate fenced yards and runs structured individual rotations, so selective and reactive dogs can exercise and board safely without forced group play.
Milder reactivity?
For leash pulling and mild reactivity, the 4-week Board & Train ($3,600) and 4-week Day Training ($2,400) both include mild reactivity work. Private lessons ($150) can target one or two specific behaviors.
Frequently asked questions
Do you accept dogs that are reactive or not "dog park friendly"?
Yes. We specialize in reactive, high-drive and selective dogs. With multiple separate fenced yards and structured individual rotations, dogs that aren't social with other dogs can exercise, play and board safely.
Can you guarantee my dog will never react again?
No, and we'd be wary of anyone who does. Aggression is managed, not cured. Our goal is calm focus, reliable tools and an owner who knows how to read and handle their dog.
What training methods and tools do you use?
We use a balanced, relationship-based approach tailored to each dog: food, toys, slip leads, place cots and, for off-leash and advanced reliability, modern low-level e-collar conditioning. Every tool is introduced with clarity, fairness and compassion.
What support do I get after training?
Every program includes one-on-one owner handover sessions and lifelong training support. Day Training, Board & Train and Behavior Modification clients also get access to our private client video training hub.
What vaccinations are required?
Proof of up-to-date Rabies, Parvo/Distemper (DHPP) and Bordetella is required for all training stays and boarding.
