Initial Consultation

If your dog’s behavior is causing frustration and you’re ready to find real, effective solutions, starting with an initial consultation is essential. This step allows me to gather important information about your dog's unique history and daily routine, since many behavioral issues stem from underlying factors you might not have noticed. Understanding these details is key to creating a tailored, holistic training plan that addresses the root cause, not just the symptoms.

During the consultation, you’ll receive practical management techniques designed to help both you and your dog prepare for the training journey ahead. Afterward, I will recommend a training package suited specifically to your dog’s needs.

For new puppy owners, 30-minute sessions provide a great introduction to training basics. For adult dogs, newly adopted pets, or dogs exhibiting challenging behaviors like reactivity, resource guarding, extreme fear, or aggression, 60-minute sessions are recommended and required for behavior modification work.

In-person consultations are available in the greater Idaho Falls area. If you live outside this region, we can arrange a video consultation or an in-person visit for an additional travel fee. Taking this first step puts you on the path to lasting, positive change in your dog’s behavior.
