If you want to know more about us, behavior consulting and training, please visit our website. Behavior Modification $3,750 to $4,890 This 3 to 4 week program is designed to address minor behavior issues (i.e. jumping, mouthing and counter surfing, etc.) as well as basic obedience: recall sit/down heel place Basic obedience is NOT for dogs with aggression issues or extreme levels of anxiety or fear. Depending on the intensity of the dog's issues additional weeks may be required (at $850 per week). This recommendation will be made based on the initial consultation or shortly after the beginning of training.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically, we collect detailed information on the animal via an online questionnaire. Once we have that information, we contact the owner to develop a program to address the dog's issues in a way that will promote real and lasting change.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Like any profession dog training requires not only active study but lots of hands on time. I participate in multiple professional seminars annually, exchange ideas with fellow professionals frequently and try to never stop learning. I work with over 100 dogs per year across all breeds and sizes so no issue, behavior or breed is new to me. I also consult with a local Animal Rescue that handles more challenging cases at our local Municipal Shelter. Working with and understanding the added stress a shelter situation places on an animal helps me better assist owners who have elected to adopt rather than buy. Recent examples of my annual continuing education include: One-week seminar on Body Language
