It all begins with an idea: helping busy bay area dog parents who just want to take their dog on a walk wihout any issues. I know it can be disheartening and sometimes you feel like you have failed as a dog owner when your canine just can’t seem to stop barking, snapping or lunging when you’re outside. I know, because I once was that person with the aggressive dog who I couldn’t take anywhere because I was petrified of what would happen if we came across another dog or if anything spooked or surprised my dog. I feared meeting new people, every walk or hike or camping trip. I had done the right thing by adopting but now my awesome life I was supposed to have with my shelter dog had become completely unmanageable. I know your pain and it is not your fault.
