Best for: Puppies, adolescent dogs, newly adopted dogs, or anyone needing help with basic manners and life skills.
 
All new training clients begin with a 60-minute virtual consultation to ensure we tailor support to your dog’s needs.
 
This is the first step for anyone starting fresh with a new dog or feeling stuck with common training challenges like jumping, pulling on leash, not coming when called, or just general chaos at home.
 
We’ll start by reviewing your detailed intake form (submitted ahead of time) so we can use our time efficiently. We’ll spend time getting clear on your goals - what behaviors you want to teach, which ones you’d like to prevent, and how your dog’s age, breed, and environment might influence your training priorities.
 
Together, we’ll set up practical management strategies to support good behavior, reduce frustration, and build a strong foundation for learning.
 
By the end of the session, you’ll have:
 
A personalized training plan to start building the skills that matter most to you
Realistic next steps based on your dog’s current stage of development 
Strategies for managing your dog’s environment to encourage success
A session recording and written notes with helpful resources
Recommendations for ongoing support and coaching, if needed
 
*** At the time of purchase, you’ll receive a PDF with instructions for scheduling your session, along with two online forms that must be submitted at least 48 hours before your consultation. The same PDF will be emailed to you for easy access.
