The reset protocol
The Reset Protocol is Animist’s signature behaviour transformation system designed for dogs struggling with reactivity, anxiety, or aggression or other problematic behaviours. Rather than applying quick fixes, we uncover the root cause of behaviour and rebuild confidence from the inside out. Through a blend of science, instinct and clear communication, we reset both dog and human — creating calm, cooperative partnerships. This isn’t traditional training; it’s rehabilitation with purpose.
what you get when you join
Initial diagnosis:
We start with a deep-dive Zoom session where we unpack your dog’s full story — their history, triggers, routine and your biggest pain points. This isn’t a quick chat; it’s a structured behaviour assessment that lets me pinpoint what’s really going on beneath the surface, so we can build a plan that actually fits you and your dog.
6 x 1 hour in person sessions
Each session, we meet for a focused, one-hour session in your home or on location, working directly on the real-life situations that are stressing you out. These sessions are where we put the Reset Protocol into action — building calm, control and confidence step by step, so you can finally see tangible change in front of you.
ACTION PLAN
After your consultation and first session, you’ll receive a clear, personalised action plan that lays out exactly what to do and when. No guesswork, no overwhelm — just a structured, step-by-step roadmap you can follow, so every walk and every interaction has a purpose.
Daily whatsapp and video feedback
You’re never left wondering, “Am I doing this right?” You’ll send through your training homework, updates and videos, and I’ll respond with tailored feedback, voice notes and clear next steps every day. It’s like having a behaviourist in your pocket, keeping you on track and supporting you through the wobbles.
MONTHLY behaviour clinic calls
Once a month you’ll be invited to our live group Behaviour Clinic — an hour-long call where you can ask questions, troubleshoot specific issues and learn from other owners on the same journey. Sometimes we’ll deep-dive into a key topic; other times it’s open Q&A, but every call is designed to keep you progressing and feeling supported.
vip access to our private community
You’ll get access to our private Reset Protocol group — a focused support space for people currently (or recently) working through the programme.
This is where I answer questions, share additional guidance, and post extra resources to support you during your Reset window. You’ll also be alongside other owners at different stages of the protocol, so you can see what’s working, learn from real cases, and share progress if and when you want to.
3 months on going support
When the intensive part of the program ends, you’re not cut loose. You’ll keep access to me via WhatsApp for a further three months, so you can get guidance as new situations pop up, consolidate the progress you’ve made and feel confident that the changes are here to stay.
the limited offer
I only take on 10 clients each month to ensure every case receives the time, focus, and personalised support it deserves. Behaviour modification is complex work, and spreading myself thin would compromise results. Once those 10 slots are filled, the calendar closes until the following month—so if you’re ready to move forward, securing your place now ensures you and your dog get priority access.
the animist gurantee
We’re so confident in The Reset Protocol that we’re willing to stand behind it with a promise: if you commit to the process, you will see a measurable improvement in your dog.
This isn’t a magic wand — it’s a system that works when you work with it. That’s why our guarantee comes with conditions. If you show up, stay open to learning, follow your action plan, attend the clinic calls and complete the homework — and you still haven’t seen meaningful change by the end of the course — we’ll continue working with you until you do… or we’ll refund you.
Because the right guidance makes progress inevitable. And we’re prepared to prove it.
