Reactive Dog Behaviorist

I handle cases- like aggression, reactivity, and biting- that other trainers may not feel comfortable with. I have thousands of hours of hands' on experience, and I'm one of a few internationally-certified dog behavior consultants in the area. I also make it a point to emphasize your comfort alongside the dog's- I know how scary it is to deal with these behaviors. I teach you how to feel calm as much as I teach your dog how to handle scary situations.

What to expect

Consultation

We'll review your dog's behavior, put together a training plan, and if it feels good, we'll talk about next steps. If you sign up for a program, I'll credit the consultation fee.

Sessions

Typically in your home

In our first session, we'll spend a lot of time talking- I'll go over the training plan, talk about contributing factors, and put together a plan to manage the behavior. From there on, our sessions will be split between my teaching, and your hands-on practice. Please have your dog's vaccination records, and any pertinent medical information ready.

6 years experience
Positive Reinforcement

My philosophy is built on humane, effective strategies for both you, and your dog. I handle cases that other trainers might be unwilling to- including human aggression, dog-dog aggression, separation anxiety, and bite cases. I get you and your dog relief quickly, and I make sure that you understand everything you need to so that you can be calm and in-control.
