Who Works With Your Dog
Meet Dylan Lynn, Our Behavior Modification Expert
Behavior Modification TrainerReactive and aggressive dogs are Dylan's focus.
Dylan trains both of our aggression options in Jacksonville: the 8-lesson private program on this page, and the 3-Week Behavior Modification Board & Train, which he is the only trainer on our team to run. He brings a working-dog background to every case, including several years as a decoy for law enforcement and sport bite dogs. Read Dylan's bio.
Can an Aggressive Dog Be Trained?
Yes - and it happens here every month. Aggression and reactivity toward other dogs are usually not personality flaws; they're the absence of two things: reliable obedience and controlled exposure. Both of our aggression programs build them, in that order. It's the same structured approach behind the OLK9 network's public library of over a million training videos on YouTube - you can watch dogs like yours before and after.
How the 8-Lesson Aggression Program Works
- Lessons 1–4: obedience foundation. Our full basic obedience package - because a dog that reliably obeys commands is a dog you can interrupt, redirect, and control before a situation escalates.
- Lessons 5–8: controlled work around other dogs. We put you and your dog into structured scenarios around other dogs and distractions - different situations, different commands - building desensitization step by step.
- You leave with the skills, not just the results. The entire program is one-on-one, and you're trained in every session, so the control transfers to your daily walks.
Is the 8-Lesson Program Right for Your Dog?
- Dog aggression or dog reactivity - lunging, barking, or fixating on other dogs
- Dogs that "go over the top" whenever another dog is around
- Leash reactivity that makes walks miserable
- Dogs other trainers have turned away
Bite history, aggression toward people, or a case that needs daily work? The 3-Week Behavior Modification Board & Train is built for those dogs: your dog lives and trains with Dylan at his home.

Aggression Questions, Answered
How much does aggressive dog training cost in Jacksonville, NC?
$1,000 for the complete 8-lesson private program - obedience foundation plus structured desensitization work. See how it compares on our cost guide.
Is my dog too old for aggression training?
No. We train all dogs, all ages, all issues - adult and senior dogs learn the same obedience foundation and desensitization skills; the process is identical.
Do you use e-collars on aggressive dogs?
We use the tools appropriate to each dog, introduced properly and humanely - and we teach you to use them correctly. Everything is demonstrated one-on-one, on your dog, in front of you.
What about resource guarding - food, toys, or space?
Guarding behavior responds to the same structure-first approach: obedience gives you interrupt-and-redirect control, then we work the specific trigger scenarios. Mention it on your consultation call so we plan the lessons around it.
