Behavior Consulting
Help for Fear, Anxiety, Reactivity, and Aggression
Every dog and every family is unique. Behavior consulting starts with understanding why your dog does what they do, then builds a plan that fits your dog's emotional needs and your real life.
Behavior Consulting is currently waitlisted. I take new clients as current cases wrap up.
The Behavior Change Program
This program helps dogs rebuild confidence and feel safe again. We uncover the "why" behind each behavior and create a calm, secure environment where learning can happen. You'll learn how to support your dog emotionally and practically, building the foundation for long-term success at home and out in the world.
There's no fixed number of sessions. Your plan is paced to your dog.
Includes:
A 2-hour initial behavior consultation
A customized, step-by-step behavior plan
A 1-hour follow-up session
Additional coaching sessions as needed
Starts at $465 (2-hour consultation + 1-hour follow-up)
Best for: Dogs showing fear, anxiety, overarousal, reactivity, or aggressive behavior.
A Whole-Dog Approach
I use the L.E.G.S. model and the Total Welfare framework to look at your dog's Learning, Environment, Genetics, and Self. For behavior clients, I use the Total Welfare app to record your dog's profile and track their welfare over time, so we can see what's changing.
