Training and Behavior Services
Effective dog training goes beyond teaching a list of positions. We want our dogs to learn the habit of calm attention. Training will help your dog to be a better companion, and will improve the quality of life for both you and your dog.
I can help with problems like puppy/dog house breaking, biting, excessive barking, jumping, destructive behavior, pulling on leash, fear, anxiety, and aggression. For your convenience, all sessions take place in your home and/or neighborhood, where we want your dog to behave! All training and behavior services are customized to meet your individual needs.
Initial Consultation/Jumpstart Session
This session lasts approximately sixty to ninety minutes. I will observe your dog, help clarify your goals, and start working with your dog on one or two behaviors. We want to begin to move things in the desired direction right away. I will then follow up with written recommendations within the next
forty-eight hours.

Individual follow-up sessions
In these follow-up lessons we teach your dog new behaviors and/or make desirable behavior more reliable.
$125.00 each*
*Four follow-up sessions paid in advance $450.00.
How many sessions will I need?
This question comes up a lot. The answer is, it depends! Just like humans, dogs learn at different rates.
Changing emotional reactions like anxiety and aggression usually requires more time than teaching basic manners. Of course, the more consistent you are with management and training, the better your results will be. Most of my clients report significant improvement after only a few sessions.
