Your dog isn't choosing to bark and lunge, so why are you training like he is?
The Rewire Method™ the missing piece to help your reactive dog without a treat scatter, waiting for to disengage or Obedience drills.
Barkaholics Isn't Another Training Course
It's the Emotional Rewiring Method™—built on the science of emotional learning.
Learn the step-by-step framework that creates new emotional memories, rewires your dog's emotional response, and changes how they feel about the things they currently fear or overreact to—so calm behavior becomes the natural result.
If these people can do it, so can you
I SEE YOU...
You've tried everything
And none of it actually changed how your dog feels
✔️ Yelling, leash corrections, or saying "NO!"
✔️ Avoiding every dog, hiding behind cars, distracting your dog
✔️ Carrying a bag of treats hoping he’ll finally “listen”
✔️ Apologizing to neighbors while they give you a dirty look for not controlling your dog
✔️ You’ve probably even tried other online courses, but they taught distractions — not emotional change.
All the while you feel...
- Disappointed that your dog can't behave
- Judged, ashamed and hopeless when your dog "goes off"
- Mad at your dog for not listening
- Frustrated because TikTok and Instagram hacks don't work for you
AND NOTHING HAS REALLY WORKED, HAS IT?
because traditional training focuses on behavior - not emotion
It distracts your dog from looking
It punishes the barking
It uses commands like Sit
But Barkaholics is different, we don't use any of those - we rewire the dog's emotional response.
MOST WON'T TELL YOU THIS BUT
Obedience training doesn't work for reactivity
What Is Reactivity, Really?
Reactivity isn’t disobedience.
It’s not dominance.
And it’s definitely not your fault.
Reactivity is an emotional response—usually fear or excitement—to dogs or people.
When your dog feels trapped on leash and overwhelmed, their only option is to “act threatening” in hopes the scary thing goes away.
That’s why they Bark. Lunge. Growl.
But here’s the truth:
You can’t punish fear out of a dog.
You have to change how the dog feels about the trigger.
BUT MAYBE YOU'RE USING POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT
So why is your dog still reacting?
Most reactive dog owner are trying to change behavior. They're told to:
• reward calm behaviour
• distract with food
• ask for a sit
• keep their dog under control
But here's what almost nobody explains...
By the time your dog is barking and lunging, their brain has already decided the situation is scary, frustrating, or overwhelming.
The behavior is simply the result of that emotional decision.
That's why so many people get stuck.
They're trying to change the behavior...
without changing the emotion that's causing it.
And that's why simply rewarding calm behaviour isn't enough.
You can't reward fear away.
You have to create new emotional experiences.
HERE'S THE COLD HARD TRUTH
Treats don't change reactivity.
The emotional experience you're creating while using food does.
If your dog is already over-threshold—too stressed, too scared, or too hyped up—they literally can’t learn.
👉 If your dog won’t take a treat…
👉 If they ignore you completely outside…
👉 If they bark the second they see a trigger…
It’s not because they’re stubborn.
It’s not because they need “more obedience.”
And it’s not because he's not food motivated.
It’s because they’re in survival mode—and survival mode doesn’t care about snacks.
If you want to change how your dog feels, then you need a structured process to change the emotions causing the barking & lunging.
That’s what most reactive dog training misses.
And it’s exactly what the Barkaholics Program is built to fix.
THE PART YOU'VE BEEN MISSING...
The Emotional Rewiring Method™
Reactive dogs don’t need more exposure, more obedience, or more pressure.
They need you to help them rewire their emotions and changes how they feel — in the right order.
This is the same rewire process I’ve used with private reactive dog clients for over 15 years — simplified so you can follow it step by step.
Here’s what makes Barkaholics different:
-
Understanding the Brain
Why your dog reacts and what emotional rewiring actually is. -
Building Safety
Because brains can't rewire while they're in survival mode. -
Create New Memories
Small successes. Tiny wins. Correct repetitions. This is where rewiring happens by decreasing intensity. -
Strengthen New Pathways
Repeat the new experience until calm becomes your dog's new normal. Repetition is the key. You're no longer hiding for dogs, but looking for them.
Most reactive dog training skips steps — or does them out of order or doesn't do them at all.
Barkaholics follows this process every time, so your dog isn’t pushed faster than they’re ready — and you’re never guessing what comes next.

WANNA HEAR
What other reactive dog owners had to say?
"Thank you for your great instructions. I've worked through the first 2 weeks of the Barkaholics Class. Sven is doing much better around dogs and human triggers. We had a big success today with two human guests and he didn't bark, growl or lunge at them. My familiy said, "Mom, it is working!" I've trained dogs before but Sven is different. Thank you for your great instruction."
Zoe A.
"We got Bosley right before the covid lockdown. He came from Armenia. We were going to do private lessons but did Barkaholics because of the lockdown. We watched the videos and followed the instructions and it worked! We're so excited that Bosley is calm around dogs now. I love taking him to horse shows around other dogs. I'm glad this program was available and affordable."

OUR COMMITMENT:
We will devote our full effort toward helping you
As a certified professional dog trainer, it would be unethical to guarantee a specific behavior or outcome. Every reactive dog is different.
What I can promise is this: you’ll receive the same proven method I’ve used with clients for years — along with support if you get stuck.
If you complete the lessons, ask for feedback, and still feel stalled, I’ll continue supporting you inside the group until you and your dog make progress.
This work requires participation and consistency. For that reason, refunds are not offered once program access is granted.
If you’re willing to do the work, you won’t be doing it alone.
Hi, I'm Sherry, the founder of the Barkaholics Program
Like you, I struggled with my reactive dogs. I was frustrated by the lack of quality and practical training advice.
I tried countless methods and watched hours of videos, only to find vague advice and theory without instruction.
Finally, I found a solution that rewires a dog's emotional response. I used it with my dogs and with thousands of clients dog's.
I created this program so that you can have access to all the steps without paying for private training, which is exactly what I would have wanted 16 years ago with Sadie.
STILL HERE?
Good, because there's something I need to tell you.
It might be tempting to think that someone else can train your reactive dog and bring him back perfect. Just hand over thousands of dollars and trust a stranger because he said so. Sending your dog away to an "intense" training program isn't going to work.
Your dog’s reactivity doesn’t exist in a training facility — it exists with you, in your neighborhood. That’s why this process is designed to work where your dog actually lives.
Trust is tied to you, this means that YOU are the best person to train your dog.
