Support for pets with complex needs

My behavior modification and training experience has primarily been in shelters and rescues, helping dogs with reactivity, aggression, fear and extreme kennel stress. While I have plenty on experience working on basic manners and puppy problems, working with dogs with more complex behavioral concerns is my passion.

Behavior Modification

What to expect

Consultation

We will start our consultation by discuss ing your dog and their history, the behavior you are struggling with, and what your ultimate goals are. I will meet your dog and likely ask if I can observe the behavior we are attempting to modify so I can create a training plan.

Sessions

Typically in your home

In our first session, we will go over the training plan, and then I will demonstrate the exercises I would like you to do with your dog. Then I will ask you to take the lead and practice these skills. At the end of the session, I will send you home with exercises I would like you and your dog to continue to work on.

Positive Reinforcement

I am committed to meeting every client where they are at. I primarily follow positive reinforcement based training methods. I think the most important part of training is to “train the dog in front of you” and use whatever method works best for each individual dog.
