“Building trust with your dog and then overcoming stressful behaviors comes from a place of understanding. There is beauty in the patience it takes to get to that place… And from that understanding comes breakthroughs and strengthened relationships.” – Maria

All initial consultations will be conducted via video chat. In-home and virtual follow-ups are available depending on each case’s needs.

Behavior Modification Programs

Aggression & Reactivity

Does your dog lunge and bark at other dogs, people, bikes, or cars? It is not only a stressful situation for you but also for your dog that can spoil your walks and outdoor activities.

Separation anxiety

Does your dog pace, whine, or bark when you leave her alone? Do you come home to destruction or continuous accidents?

Other behavior problems

Does your dog bark in excess or jump on people? Is she fearful or anxious, afraid of loud noises, storms, or fireworks?

 

Legal Cases

We can provide an expert legal witness for criminal, civil, and Dangerous Dog proceedings.

Additional Services

Dog training

It does not matter if you are looking for the basics, a refresher, or a specific trained cue; we can create a personalized program for you.

  • Basics: sit, come, stay, target, loose leash walking
  • Advanced: Settle, leave it, drop it (and all the above with increased distance and distractions)
  • Specialized: Nail trimming, grooming, staying still for medical procedures (vaccinations, eye drops, etc.), or anything you need.

Pet Selection

Choosing the right puppy or adult dog is crucial in building a successful, forever relationship. To help you find the best dog for you, we start with understanding your lifestyle and living arrangements, followed by your expectations and goals.
