Private Appointments

We’ll start with a 60-90 minute virtual consultation, where I’ll get to know your dog’s background—personality, breed, learning history, and current environment they find themselves in. We will also talk about your relationship with your dog, and the goals you have moving forward, and how we will reach those together.

How often we talk or see each other is completely up to you. After our first consultation, I become a member of your team, a source of support, and a resource.

Initial virtual Consultation: $175
60 minute private lesson (in-person or virtual): $150
30 minute follow-up virtual appointment: $85

Behavioral Health Visits

This is a direct trainer-to-dog home visit that is individually tailored to what currently best benefits your dog and their behavioral health and wellbeing.

It’s a great way for me, a certified trainer, to work directly with your dog to build on the skills you’re already working on, and get you some relief for a little bit, especially if we’re working through behavior challenges.

Possibilities include:

• Foundational skills strengthening
  Pattern games, relaxation protocols, recall, confidence building.

• Behavior therapy
  Using therapies such as The Play Way, BAT 2.0, desensitization and counterconditioning, I will work with your dog to help them feel safe and secure and create positive associations with their environment.

• Decompression walk
  Not your basic neighborhood walk! I’ll take your dog to an enriched open space on a long-line and let them sniff to their heart’s content. This has infinite benefits to your dog’s behavioral health.

• Enrichment activity
  Not sure where to start with enrichment? I can set up a Free Work session, introduce them to canine nosework, or provide any activity that they love to do.

Dogs who would benefit from this service:

• Adolescent dogs  (6 months—3 years)

• Dogs who freeze, focus, bark, or lunge at other dogs/people/environmental stimuli on leash

• Dogs who display fear or nervousness at any environmental stimuli (dogs, people, cars, noises, etc)

• Dogs who have a hard time relaxing on their own or calming down, even after they’ve had physical and mental exercise

New client prerequisites for this are:

• Initial virtual behavior consultation ($175) which includes a detailed follow-up and plan

• One in-person lesson ($150) to observe your dog and teach the humans useful exercises/games

For your dog to get the full benefit of this service, I recommend scheduling on a regular or semi-regular basis. This isn’t a magic-wand, it is meant to be a collaboration alongside you to support and strengthen the cues and practices you’ve already introduced to your pup with my help!

Investment: $125 / 45 minute visit

Service area: South Park (neighborhood discount!), White Center, Highland Park, West Seattle, Beacon Hill
