Take Your Dog
From Anxious to Accomplished.
Rehabilitate your dog’s anxiety with neuroscience.
A 5-day program for dog owners and professionals.
Anxiety triggers are everywhere and constant.
➡️ A door closing
➡️ A car pulling up
➡️ Another dog approaching
➡️ Being left alone
All of these can leave your dog whimpering, panicking or on high-alert.
And knowing what to do feels impossible.
How do you train a dog when you can’t get their attention for even a second?
In those moments, it’s all too easy to think:
“I’ll just get some medication to solve the problem”
but that’s not always the best answer.
Yes, it calms your dog down. But it’s masking a bigger problem.
Despite what you’ve been taught or have read online, asking the dog for calmness without addressing your dog’s arousal is one of the worst things you can do to rehabilitate anxiety.
**Calmness, on its own, doesn’t work.**
…and leaving anxiety untreated, without solving it at the root cause, can lead to other more serious behaviors and problems, like reactivity and aggression.
Despite using medication to “calm” your dog.
If you want to finally beat anxiety for good, you need to take your dog’s arousal level, do *something* (I will teach you what that means) with it, and THEN layer in calmness.
There’s a time and a place to use medication to treat anxiety but without understanding it, you may be making the wrong choice for your dog.
Maybe you’ve tried medication.
Maybe you’ve only thought about it.
**Either way, I want you to be able to make an informed decision.**
To solve the problem of anxiety in your dog, you need to understand the triggers, causes, and symptoms so you can treat them properly and give your dog the best chance of rehabilitation.
That’s exactly why I created this program.

Real Results and some LOVE from our students
“We could see significant changes”
We have 3 dogs, all with anxiety that presents itself in different behaviors for each dog. Dr Melanie’s knowledge is vast and her background in science and research gives me extra confidence in her advice. After just a few weeks of work, we could see significant changes in the individual dogs, as well as how they interacted with each other and the human family, too. Several months in, we have a vastly improved family dynamic.

“We can enjoy walks with other dogs!”
We adopted a nervous Australian Cattle Dog with leash, window, and sound reactivity. After trying multiple trainers with no success, I’m grateful I found Melanie’s neuroscience-based program. It has strengthened my relationship with our dog and improved our life. Before this program, we had to keep our dog away from triggers, but now he confidently interacts with other dogs and even joins our kids’ games.
Corrin - Canine Decoded Student
“I haven’t been bitten in months!”
Our dog, Bunga, is a Pittie mix rescued from Mexico with behavioral issues. We really liked Melanie’s approach to understanding dogs’ psychology, emphasizing not just obedience but understanding Bunga’s mentality and developing a strong bond. I haven’t been bitten in months and I genuinely noticed she is getting better and better. For anyone struggling with their dog’s behavior, I strongly recommend Canine Decoded!

Everything I teach is backed by scientific research and comes from years of experience handling dogs with a range of issues, from anxiety to reactivity.
At Canine Decoded, we’re all about helping dogs and their owners build a more harmonious relationship and reshape behavior by fighting the root cause, rather than suppressing the issue.
Today, my team and I help dog owners across the world turn their dog’s anxiety and aggression into calmer and healthier outcomes.
It’s about more than just changing behavior. It’s about empowering owners to regain normalcy in their lives, create calmness at home, and provide a happy and fulfilled life for their companions.
“How long will this take?”
And the answers to your most pressing questions
Q: “How long will From Anxious to Accomplished take me?”
The program itself is designed to be consumed over 5 days, with one video lesson per day. Each video is no more than 20 minutes, so you can consume the content on your coffee break, while you’re eating your breakfast, or even before you get out of bed.
This isn’t a program that’ll overwhelm you with information. It gives you everything you need to uncover the root cause of your dog’s anxiety, with protocols to rehabilitate it that are backed in neurobiology.
The timeline on results will vary as every dog is different but one promise we can make is that if you follow what we teach, it’s the most effective way to address anxiety in your dog.
Q: “Will this course help me reduce or eliminate medication to help my dog’s anxiety?”
The purpose behind this course is to give you a path to rehabilitate your dog’s anxiety without medication.
You’ll get a detailed breakdown of when and when not to use medication to treat anxiety by exploring the underlying neurobiology of medication, and you’ll walk away with a plan to reduce anxiety, by treating your dog’s anxiety at the root cause instead.
To fade out medication, please contact your vet or vet behaviorist.
The final module gives you neuroscience backed exercises that’ll help keep your dog calm and will naturally rehabilitate their anxiety, so you can consult with your vet to fade out medication.
Q: “Do I get any coaching or access to Dr. Melanie with this program?”
No. This program is a self-study course and you get instant access to the online video modules as soon as you enroll.
If you want 1:1 access and personalized feedback from Dr. Melanie, you can book a 1:1 session here.
Q: “How is this different from Never Alone?”
From Anxious to Accomplished focuses solely on anxiety in your dog and is designed to be completed in just 5 days. It’s an online program without any community element, so you can consume it and take action within 5 days.
Never Alone looks at reactivity, fear and aggression in your dog and is a comprehensive program that goes deep into the neuroscience behind a range of behavioral issues and how to rehabilitate them. It also comes with a community element.
If you’re a dog owner struggling with an anxious dog or a dog professional looking to learn more about anxiety in dogs, we recommend starting with From Anxious to Accomplished.
Q: “How long do I get access to the training for?”
You get lifetime access to the course so you can revisit lessons whenever you need to.
We get that rehabilitation isn’t a quick fix and your dog is a living, breathing being whose behaviors may shift over time – we want you to feel equipped to handle any situation as your dog develops and grows.
Q: “I have another question. How can I get in touch with you?”
If you have any questions at all and want to make sure this is a good fit for you and your dog, please send us a message at melanie@caninedecoded.com and we’ll help you make the right decision for your unique situation.
If your dog’s anxiety is causing you stress, I see you.
So many clients come to me with an anxious dog and have no idea what to do with them.
The whining, pacing, and constant vigilance leave them overwhelmed.
They’ve tried medication, or thought about it, but they’ve never found a long-term solution.
Because using calmness can add conflict or even worsen the anxiety.
If that’s you and you feel lost, you’re exactly who I created this for.
By using neurobiology to tackle the anxiety from the root cause, the right way, you’ll finally be on the way to a calmer, happier dog.
A dog who doesn’t pull or whine whenever there’s a car approaching or a door closing.
This course will help you get your life back.
The road ahead might seem uncertain but I’ll be there to guide you every step of the way.
