Porgram Breakdown

Initial Consulation

We begin with an initial consultation where our trained professionals assess your dog’s behavior, temperament, and specific training goals. This helps us tailor a training plan to fit your unique situation

Training Sessions

Owner education

Following the consultation, we create a tailored training plan that combines obedience, behavior modification, socialization, and specialty skills. Training sessions are also held one-on-one in different settings to meet your dog’s behavioral objectives.

A significant aspect of our service involves educating the owners. We provide guidance on reinforcement techniques, communication skills, and ongoing management strategies to help you maintain the training at home.

Ongoing Support

Throughout the program, we conduct regular progress evaluations. This enables us to adjust the training techniques and focus areas as needed, ensuring optimal results.

Before enrolling, it's important that all guardians are in agreement with the following requirements:

  • All new clients start with an Initial Consultation, during which we will take a thorough history, put together a plan, and decide on what future service options would best suit you and your canine companion.

  • When training your dog demand significant care and attention. Owners must commit to minimizing unwanted behaviors and ensuring safety throughout this program

  • Guardians should be ready to dedicate 20 to 30 minutes each day to notice meaningful progress.

  • Behavioral health lacks quick solutions; each dog's pace can take months or years to address reactivity.

“Working with Stephanie on Wixy's puppyhood was a great investment. We noticed some early behavioral issues and realized we needed extra support to help her become the wonderful dog we knew she could be. Stephanie exceeded our expectations, teaching Wixy much more than we imagined.
