We’re on a mission…

to redefine "dog training" and deepen human understanding of canine behavior.

PackFit is more than a business. 

It’s a movement, a working message, and a form of ministry. 

Our mission is to create a much-needed shift in our relationship with dogs, how we perceive them …and to deepen our understanding of behavior.

This makes our work incredibly exciting, fulfilling, and rewarding. We work with clients who, despite their best efforts and intentions, still end up stressed and struggling with their dogs in many ways (e.g. aggression, “reactivity”, fear, separation anxiety, social anxiety, general anxiety, containment phobia, bullying, counter-surfing, destructiveness, leash pulling, resource guarding, nuisance barking, visitor and guest acceptance, space sharing, in-home multi-dog relations, and more).

 

BEHAVIOR IS INFORMATION

It’s a manner of expression, a type of response, form of feedback, and is heavily layered. Because of this, there's a level of detective work required to identify the ingredients contributing to, influencing, and impacting it.

We do not believe in using medication to numb or suppress expression. This doesn't address root cause, alters the dog's chemistry in the process, and often gets abused at the expense of the dog. 

If change is what we want, we’ve got to do the work. We've got the make the effort to understand what’s being said, and we’ve got to equip ourselves so we can better equip our dogs. 

"Behavior" is trying to tell us something, and we’re here to help you understand what.
