Get started today!

Consultation - Required before follow ups

When you schedule a consultation, you will be provided educational videos, reading materials, and you will be asked to send relevant video footage of your dog. During the 60 minute consultation, we will discuss your dog's day to day routine and the behaviors you want to address. I will recommend an enrichment plan, management protocol, and opportunistic training guidelines. You are encouraged to take notes and recordings during the session. I will provide you with notes via email within 2 working days.

Pre-Arrival/Adoption Consults

This session will cover most of the above plus how to interview a breeder/rescue and how to find the right breed/dog for your lifestyle. Additionally you will receive tips on how to dog proof your home, ways your breeder/rescue can assist with a smooth transition, guidelines for the first days and weeks to come, and much more!

Virtual: $220    

In Person: $250

Follow Ups - Scheduled after the initial consultation

The first four Follow Ups Sessions will focus on putting into place what we discussed during the consultation. This includes enrichment to channel energy and normal canine behavior, management to prevent unwanted behavior, and opportunistic training which covers what to do when management is not an option or fails. 

 

During subsequent sessions we begin building foundation skills, once those are strong, we will strategically using those foundation skills in the "problem" context. We continue these subthreshold exposures, increasing difficulty at your dog's pace, until you reach your goals or you feel you can take the reigns solo.

*Most families are happy with 6-8 sessions per 1-2 behavior contexts.*

The Fine Print

Considerations: 

In Person Sessions:

  • Vaccinations and masks required. I am immunocompromised and appreciate your due diligence.

  • Service area - 10 mile radius (roughly) from Central SJ.

  • Appointments offered Mon-Fri 12:30pm-5:00pm, I do my best to accommodate your schedule.

Expectations for Training: Dogs are living organisms and thus training time frames and results have many variables. Including but not limited to; past training, learning curve (owner and dog), breed specialty, adherence to the training plan, and more. I will do my best to give you an accurate estimate of training time and results, but ethically cannot give guarantees. Click here to read my ethics pledge.

 

Commitment: I am committed to your success! I limit the amount of appointments I have daily and am just a text or email away. I do ask that you financially commit to training by paying for services at the time of booking. 

 

Rescheduling/Cancellation Policy: You will be charged in full for the appointment unless your appointment slot is filled by another client or in the case of an emergency.

 

Refunds: There are no refunds after payment is accepted. Fees are transferable to other services or clients at my discretion.
