Mindful, Enrichment-Based Training
Force-free, enrichment-based training plans are personalized to fit your dog's needs! I offer behavioral coaching sessions to troubleshoot undesired behaviors, anxiety management, and demos for cue training to facilitate communication between you and your pup.
I create training games and activities that satisfy your dog's natural instincts and cue training to strengthen communication. This enrichment-based approach makes training fun and exciting for everyone! Cue training gives you the language to communicate effectively while growing your unique bond!
Cues:

Consultations:
During the consultation, we'll discuss your goals and your dog's needs and behaviors. We'll decide on a schedule for the next few sessions and assign homework. After the consultation, you'll receive a detailed training plan and resource guide customized just for you and your dog!
Sessions:
We'll start a typical session with a review of any pervious cues learned. Next, I will demo new cues and coach you through the training process with your dog. We'll finish up by playing a game to reinforce their cues and enrichment activities to manage undesired behaviors.
The cues your dog learns will depend on your goals and where you dog is at in their learning journey. The most successful dogs and guardians practice their cues and play their games regularly between sessions!
