Creating lasting results with science-based methods.

Client Coaching + Pet Tutoring

In a coaching session, I teach clients how to train their dogs – but in tutoring sessions, I work with your dog directly. 45-minute tutoring sessions typically work great during your work week, as they can include a built-in potty & stretch break while we work on training. I meet with clients approximately every two weeks for demonstrations, and to transfer the skills we’ve been working on so you can practice, too.

6 tutoring sessions & 1 client session / $550

10 tutoring sessions & 1 client session / $850

Training Code of Ethics

In agreement with the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists and the American Veterinary Medical Association, I do not recommend the use of aversive training tools or methods such as prong collars, shock collars, or physical corrections. I believe that the stress caused by these methods can interfere with learning and retention, and yield less predictable results than a positive-reinforcement approach.
