r/reactivedogs is a subreddit with 134k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is huge in size, and has high activity.
We are a community for people that own reactive dogs! We support the LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) approach to dog training.
The tips and advice here cannot replace a qualified certified trainer or veterinary behaviorist - if you are struggling please consider these resources for your dog.
Everyone is welcome. A reactive dog is not required to join, but please keep discussions and posts focused on dog reactivity.
