Behavior Consultation

Start with a consultation conducted over Zoom video conferencing. The goal of the consultation is to get to the bottom of what’s happening, give you a clear assessment of your dog’s behavior and address management strategies for immediate relief.

The Dog Lab offers flexible, personalized online dog training that fits your lifestyle. First, I will design a custom training plan catered to your dog's unique needs and goals. Whether it's leash reactivity, anxiety or basic manners skills, your program will be tailored just for you. You'll train on your own schedule and submit video clips of practice sessions. I'll provide expert voice over video feedback, troubleshoot challenges, and update the plan based on your dog's progress. You get individualized attention that drives results without rigid scheduling. I'll be there to guide your success every step of the way.
