Private Training if my dog…
Confidence Builders Academy if my dog…

Has big feelings: My dog reacts to people, animals, or routine activities with hard to manage, over the top behaviors such as barking, whining, pacing, jumping, or destruction

Has received a behavioral diagnosis: A veterinarian or veterinary behaviorist has evaluated my dog, and we need regular support from a behavior consultant 

Has shown aggression: My dog has snarled, snapped or bitten a person or animal, and/or pets in my home aren’t getting along.

Struggles when on a leash: I don’t look forward to walks because my dog pulls, barks, lunges,fixates, or exhibits other challenging behavior

Seems afraid of everything: My dog’s fear interferes with meeting basic needs such as house training or interaction with some family members

Struggles with vet care or grooming: My dog’s behavior makes me dread vet visits, or I’m unable to brush, clip nails, check for ticks, etc.

Has 1 or 2 specific fears interfering with our lives: Fear of car rides, guests, a particular sound, or any other daily or infrequent challenge 

Barks at people or animals and runs forward and back, or barks, settles, and then barks again when guests move
