Reactive Dog Rewind

Fast and Effective Insight for Anyone with a phone and needing a path to recovery for you and your dog!

Ever wish you could hit "pause" in the middle of a chaotic walk? When your dog reacts, it happens in a flash. You’re managing the leash, the trigger, and your own stress—making it impossible to see the subtle body-language cues that occurred before the reaction! Not knowing what to do in those first seconds before your dog reacts can be so stressful and embarrassing. You’re not a bad owner…you just have a challenging dog and that’s OK.

Reactive Dog Rewind can be the first step towards helping both you AND your dog navigate the stress of daily life

Reactive Dog Rewind is a video analysis service that brings an expert eye to your real-world footage. Using professional telestrations (on-screen drawing) and voice-over analysis, I "rewind" your clips to show you the exact moment your dog reached their threshold and suggest choices you could make to lead to future positive outcomes!

What you get:

  • A narrated video breakdown of your dog's behavior.

  • Clear visual markers (arrows, circles, and highlight zones) on your footage.

  • Actionable insights into your dog's specific triggers and "tells."

  • Training tips and suggestions!

Submit a Clip: Please include behavioral challenges you are currently experiencing with your dog, known or possible medical issues, previous training, spayed/neutered status, name, breed, sex, and age. Thanks!

  • Film: Capture your dog in their natural environment. (Horizontal/Landscape video preferred!) Voiceovers and telestrations increase file size. 30fps on your phone or camera works best!

A bit about me:

Chris Dignan has been training animals since 1997, starting with marine mammals, exotic animals, and pets. He played a pivotal role in launching and leading the dog training program at the Shedd Aquarium, where he honed his skills by training a wide variety of animals. For the past decade, Chris has focused exclusively on training dogs and developing expertise in addressing reactive behaviors.

In 2008, Chris founded The Dog Saving Network (DSN), an organization committed to raising awareness about homeless animals and promoting the importance of positive training methods. Through DSN, Chris produced "Life’s Ruff," a live performance that showcased regular dogs and their owners competing in a game show format. This fun and engaging show emphasized owner-led training, with participants doing all the training themselves.

Chris has a wealth of experience teaching people how to train their reactive dogs and is comfortable handling most animals with various behavioral challenges. He resides in Orland Park, IL, with his wife, two daughters, and rescued pup, Emma.
