Initial Consultation

An initial consultation is required before any in-person training or coaching sessions and is optional for virtual sessions. 

In order to optimize the results of training, all Initial consultations are done virtually. The consultation is done so I can gather valuable information about your dog. There are many things in a dog’s life that may be the root cause of problematic behaviors or may be hindering their ability to learn new skills. As a part of my holistic approach to training and behavior it is crucial for me to understand your dog’s history and their day to day life. 

During the consultation you will be provided with management techniques to prepare you and your dog for training. After the consultation I will create an individualized training plan to help you reach your goals. 

30 minute sessions are ideal for new puppy owners. 

60 minute sessions are recommended for adult dogs or newly adopted dogs and are required for owners looking for behavior modification for for dogs showing reactivity, resource guarding, extreme fear, aggression or other more challenging behaviors

In-person training is available after the initial consultation on a case-by-case basis. For dogs with extreme fear or aggression towards strangers please look into my virtual support or behavior modification programs.
