Family Dog Mediation

Most of dog training industry focuses on suppressing unwanted behaviors and/or replacing them with different ones, using tools & cues. We rarely stop to think about the motives and instinctual drives behind a given behavior, instead we focus on changing behaviors by any means necessary. This leads to a game of Whack-A-Mole: when you think you've addressed one unwelcome behavior, others start popping up. So, let's try something different!

I will help you figure out how to meet you dog half way & open up channels of communication that run both directions:

💜 We will discuss training strategies, how to modify the environment & meet your dog's needs, while maintaining realistic goals.

💜 I will provide you with strategies for safety & management for immediate relief.

💜 We will develop a long-term resolution plan that meets both your & your dog's needs.

💜 Your dog's welfare is my priority. I will not make unrealistic promises or provide you with band-aid "fixes".

💜 I will teach you effective skills to get the best out of your dog, while giving the best to your dog.

💜 I will provide phone & email support after we've completed our sessions. Your success matters to me - I always encourage you to reach out and ask questions.
