Many common behavior issues can be solved without multiple in-person sessions. With a Custom Training Plan, you’ll receive: • a detailed behavior assessment • a personalized training plan for your dog • short daily exercises (5–10 minutes) • step-by-step instructions • troubleshooting guidance This option is perfect for issues like: • leash pulling • jumping on guests • puppy biting • door dashing • basic obedience and manners For more complex behavior issues such as aggression or severe anxiety, in-person training may still be recommended.

What to expect
Consultation
Each consultation is tailored to your needs, whether it’s basic obedience, behavior modification, or specialized training like crate training or reactivity. Before we meet, I’ll have a quick 5–10 minute call to understand your concerns and set you up for success. During the consult, I’ll assess your dog’s behavior, discuss goals, and adjust the session based on your case—puppy training focuses on foundation skills, while behavior cases require deeper assessment. No prep is needed, but having key household members present helps. Afterward, I’ll outline clear next steps for you and your dog.
Sessions
Training sessions are hands-on, engaging, and tailored to your dog’s needs. I encourage clients to be fully present—training works best when you’re focused and involved. To help, I record audio so you can revisit key points later. Sessions adjust based on progress—if your dog picks things up quickly, we build on that momentum; if they need more time, we reinforce the foundation first. Homework may be assigned, but I schedule check-ins to keep you on track. My goal is to make training clear, practical, and easy to integrate into your daily routine for lasting results.
More info
In most cases, I only ask clients to practice 5–10 minutes a day. When those small exercises are done consistently, the results can be dramatic. Many behavior problems can be solved with the right plan and a few minutes of daily practice. My role is to design a training strategy that fits your dog, your household, and your routine. If you're willing to practice a few minutes a day, I’d love to help. Customized training plans from a multi-certified trainer. Simple exercises. Real results

Availability
Training works best when most or all adult household members are involved, so I’m flexible to accommodate schedules and ensure everyone can participate. I’m typically unavailable from 5 p.m. on Saturday until Monday morning, though exceptions can be made in certain cases.
