What’s Covered
Every dog and household is unique, which means every behavior plan is customized. We partner with your veterinarian, veterinary behaviorist, dog walker, or groomer to design a plan that fits your lifestyle and priorities.
Our focus is on reducing stress, keeping everyone safe, and giving you practical skills you can use right away in everyday situations. Behavior change is a process, and the timeline depends on your dog’s history, the severity of behaviors, and how much practice you can put in between appointments.
Common issues we help with:
Leash reactivity and barking
Dog–dog or dog–human aggression
Resource guarding
Fear and anxiety
Handling struggles and vet/grooming preparation
Puppy problem-solving
If your dog has a bite history, we will establish additional safety protocols and coordinate carefully when entering your home.
