  • How Two Uncontrollable Puppies Changed Everything I Knew About Dog Training2:45

    In 2004, my life changed forever — thanks to two tiny Parson Terrier brothers we’d just brought home.

    I was over the moon. Two puppies meant double the fun, double the love… or so I thought.

    When I rang around to enrol them into puppy socialisation classes, every trainer told me the same thing:

    “This is the worst-case scenario. Littermates will fight for dominance. You’ll have to re-home one.”

    My heart sank. I looked at those two little faces and said, "No — you’re not going anywhere."

    I had no plan, no experience — just determination to prove there had to be another way.

    So I began studying dog psychology, watching how my two communicated, and experimenting with calm, kind leadership instead of shouting or force.

    Over time, the chaos faded. The boys started listening, relaxing, and trusting me completely.

    That breakthrough didn’t just change our lives — it became the foundation of everything I teach today.

    In this opening video, you’ll meet “the boys,” see them playing together, and hear the real story behind the calm-leadership methods you’ll learn throughout this course.

  • Real Results: "I Feel Much More Confident Now - It's Incredibly Quick"1:08

    Meet Peter, a dedicated dog owner whose walks had become something he dreaded. His dog would growl and react when passing other dogs, leaving Peter tense and embarrassed.

    Watch him share what changed and how it happened. The difference in both Peter and his dog is lovely to see.

Description

Does this sound familiar?

You see another dog approaching — and your heart starts pounding.

Your dog sees them too. The pulling starts. The barking. The lunging. The snarling.

You're desperately trying to hold on, apologizing to the other owner, feeling everyone's eyes on you.

You're embarrassed.

You're scared.

And every walk has become a time of anxiety and dread.

Maybe you've stopped going to certain places altogether.

No dog parks.

No walking at normal hours.

No visiting friends who have dogs.

You cross the street when you see another dog coming. You take different routes. You leave the house at dawn just to avoid other dogs.

And the worst part?

You love your dog. But you're terrified of what might happen.

What if your dog seriously hurts another dog?

What if someone reports you?

What if your dog has to be put down?

This fear haunts you every single day.

YOU'RE NOT ALONE — AND THIS CAN CHANGE

You're not a bad dog owner. You just haven't learned what actually causes aggression and how to stop it.

Thousands of dog owners feel exactly the same way.

And this dog training course will show you how to change everything — starting with your very first walk after learning these methods.

WHY YOUR DOG IS AGGRESSIVE (AND WHY NOTHING HAS WORKED SO FAR)

Here's the truth that most dog training advice gets wrong: your dog isn't just "mean" or "bad."

Dog aggression has specific causes:

  • Dominant aggression (dogs charging with intent to establish hierarchy)

  • Fearful aggression (dogs lunging, barking, but wanting to escape conflict)

  • Space aggression (dogs snapping as if to say "get out of my personal space")

When you understand what TYPE of aggression your dog has — and what they're actually communicating — everything changes.

The lunging stops.

The attacks stop.

And suddenly, walks become calm, confident experiences again.

This isn't about punishment or force.

It's about understanding dog language, recognizing warning signs before attacks happen, and becoming the calm leader your dog desperately needs.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS DOG TRAINING COURSE

  • Recognize Warning Signs BEFORE Attacks Happen Learn to read dominant and submissive signals in dogs so you can prevent attacks before they start. This knowledge alone will transform your walks.

  • Understand the 3 Types of Dog Aggression Discover whether your dog has dominant, fearful, or space aggression — and why that's important to know.

  • Stop Lunging, Barking & Charging at Other Dogs Learn simple, gentle methods that integrate aggressive dogs with other dogs using calm leadership.

  • Get Your Dog to Walk Calmly By Your Side FIRST Discover why loose leash walking is essential BEFORE you can solve aggression — and exactly how to achieve it.

  • Understand the Crucial Part YOU Play Learn how your nervousness and fear actually CAUSE more aggressive reactions — and how to project calm confidence instead.

  • Know Why Some Dogs Are Attacked and Others Avoided Discover the fascinating dynamics of which dogs get targeted and why — so you can protect your dog.

  • Handle the "Fine Off-Leash, Aggressive On-Leash" Problem Learn why some dogs are aggressive on the leash but fine when off — and how to solve it.

  • Prevent Future Attacks and Move Forward If your dog has already attacked another dog, learn how to move on successfully and prevent it from happening again.

James Budd

"This course has helped me so much not only with my dog but with other dog owners too. I love Sharon Bolt's courses — they are professional, informative and easy to understand. Highly recommended."

Alden Morrison

"This is the fourth course I have taken and I am very satisfied not only with the results I have gotten from my own dog, but also my neighbors. Having taken four of her courses speaks for itself in recommending the course to others."

Maggie Styles

"I love the step-by-step video demonstrations in this course. I didn't realize the different aspects that cause dogs to be aggressive but Sharon explains this very clearly and how to rectify it. I signed up for this course as part of Sharon's Dog Trainer course as I am just starting my own dog training business. I now feel much more confident dealing with dog aggression after watching this. Another brilliant course Sharon - thank you."

This isn't luck.

This is what happens when you finally understand what your dog is communicating — and respond in a language they understand.

WHY THIS DOG OBEDIENCE TRAINING COURSE ACTUALLY WORKS

I'm Sharon Bolt, Celebrity Dog Trainer, featured on BBC, ITV, Channel 5, The Guardian, The Independent, The Daily Mail and more.

I've also had a regular phone-in slot on BBC Radio for over a decade, where I answered listeners' doggy dilemmas live on air.

For over twenty years, I've helped thousands of dog owners (including celebrities) with aggressive dogs transform terrifying walks into calm, confident experiences.

My approach is different because it's based on understanding WHY dogs are aggressive and what they're trying to communicate.

No punishment.

No force.

Just calm, clear leadership that makes your dog feel safe and no longer responsible for "protecting" you.

I answer student questions in all my Udemy courses daily — so you'll never feel stuck or alone in this process.

You'll discover:

  • The real reason your dog is aggressive (and why they attack some dogs but not others)

  • The one thing you're doing that's accidentally making aggression worse (hint: it's your fear)

  • How to recognize dominant and submissive signals so you can prevent attacks before they happen

  • Why getting your dog to walk by your side FIRST is essential to success

  • Simple methods that work for any type of aggression — dominant, fearful, or space-based

  • How to move forward after an attack has happened

  • Why some dogs are aggressive on-leash but fine off-leash

=*=

IS THIS TRAINING APPROACH RIGHT FOR YOU?

This course teaches calm pack leadership combined with positive reinforcement techniques.

If you believe dogs need clear, consistent leadership and want gentle methods that respect your dog while establishing you as the calm, confident leader — this course is perfect for you.

If you prefer purely reward-based training without any leadership structure, this course may not align with your philosophy.

I've been using these methods successfully for over twenty years with thousands of dogs — including seriously aggressive cases. They work. My students' results speak for themselves.

But I also respect that different trainers have different approaches — and that's okay.

The important thing is finding the method that resonates with YOU and works for your dog.

If calm pack leadership appeals to you, you're in the right place.

If it doesn't, I encourage you to find a course that better matches your training philosophy.

DOGS LIVE IN THE PRESENT MOMENT — CHANGE HAPPENS FAST

Here's the good news: dogs don't hold grudges about their past behavior.

They live in the present moment.

When you give them the right information in a language they understand, their behavior changes fast — even if they've been aggressive for years.

Many students see dramatic improvements within days of applying these dog training techniques.

Others take a few weeks of consistent practice.

But either way, you'll know you're on the right path from your very first lesson.

Once you understand these methods, you have them for life.

Every dog speaks the same language — so whether you're working with your current dog or helping someone else with an aggressive dog in the future, you'll always know exactly what to do.

IMAGINE YOUR NEW LIFE TOGETHER

It's a beautiful morning.

You reach for the lead — and instead of dread, you feel calm.

You head out for your walk. Another dog appears in the distance.

Your dog notices. Glances at you. And keeps walking calmly by your side.

No lunging.

No barking.

No attack.

You pass the other dog peacefully. The owner smiles. You smile back.

For the first time in months — maybe years — you're not holding your breath. Your shoulders aren't tense. Your heart isn't pounding.

You're just... walking your dog.

Like a normal person.

Like you always dreamed it would be.

That's not a fantasy.

That's what this dog training course helps you create.
