All Ages, All Motivations

Training Duration: Tailored to both you and your dogs needs

Focus

We recognize that dogs of all ages and backgrounds are capable of change when their needs are understood and supported. Our program is designed to adapt to your dog’s individual context, history, and day-to-day environment.

We prioritize a holistic, science-based approach that centers on your dog’s physical, emotional, and behavioral needs. Our work focuses on helping you structure your home environment, routines, and interactions in ways that support stability, predictability, and long-term well-being. We do not use shock, pinch, or discomfort-based tools, as approaches that rely on suppression can interfere with learning, regulation, and long-term behavioral health. Our primary focus is on helping you develop practical skills and understanding so you can meet your dog’s needs consistently and support sustainable behavior change over time.

Our Hands-Off In-Home Training program provides a structured, personalized approach that addresses your dog’s behavioral needs while accounting for household routines and daily demands. Whether your focus is on specific behavior challenges or foundational skill development, this program allows the trainer to work directly with your dog while supporting regulation, predictability, and consistency that can be maintained at home.

• Trainer-Led Sessions with Tailored Focus: Depending on your chosen program, Tiered Learning or Isolated Cues, the trainer works directly with your dog to develop skills while addressing underlying behavioral and emotional needs through structured learning and enrichment-informed practice.
• Owner Involvement for Success: While we establish the initial framework, your role is to carry these strategies into daily life. Consistent routines, predictable interactions, and appropriate enrichment at home are essential for maintaining progress and supporting well-being.
• Convenient At-Home Training: We bring professional, needs-based training and enrichment support directly into your home environment, helping you implement routines, structure, and enrichment strategies that reduce stress and support long-term behavioral stability.

• Trainer Visits: Depending on your selected program, the trainer will visit your home multiple times a week, working one-on-one with your dog.
• Owner Coaching: Each week concludes with a session focused on teaching you how to carry learning into daily life through routines, structure, and consistent interactions that support regulation and follow-through at home.
• Enrichment and Education: Enrichment is integrated throughout this program as a way to meet your dog’s physical, emotional, and cognitive needs. You’ll learn how to structure your dog’s environment, routines, and daily experiences to support species-typical behavior, choice, and healthy coping. This approach helps reduce chronic stress, improve regulation, and decrease the likelihood of unwanted behavior patterns.
• Ongoing Support: You’ll receive resources such as videos, handouts, and personalized guidance to support implementation, consistency, and continued progress between sessions.

Isolated Cues

Focused on a specific behavior or challenge, such as leash walking, polite greetings, or muzzle conditioning, while addressing the underlying factors that influence how that behavior shows up in daily life.

• Owner’s Role: Apply the concepts introduced during sessions through daily routines, predictable interactions, and consistent handling that support carryover outside of training visits.

Well-suited for addressing a specific behavior with a focused goal while supporting consistency and follow-through in everyday settings.

Tiered Learning

  • Time Allocation: Choose from 8, 16, or 24 one-hour trainer-led sessions over 2, 4, or 6 weeks
  • Owner’s Role: Support learning between sessions by maintaining consistent routines, structure, and enrichment strategies that help stabilize behavior and support long-term progress.
  • Support Resources: Includes a 60-minute virtual consultation, weekly coaching, video recordings, and guided resources to support understanding, implementation, and consistency.

Ideal for families seeking a broader, long-term approach that supports skill development, regulation, and sustainable behavior change.

• Shared Responsibility: The trainer introduces and develops the framework during sessions, while progress depends on how learning is carried into daily routines, structure, and interactions at home.
• Enrichment for a Thriving Dog: We guide you in structuring your dog’s environment, routines, and daily experiences to meet physical, emotional, and cognitive needs while supporting choice, regulation, and species-typical behavior.
• Education for Owners: Training is a collaborative process. We provide education that helps you understand your dog’s needs and make informed adjustments at home, supporting consistency, stability, and continued progress beyond scheduled sessions.
• Progress at Your Dog’s Pace: We adapt our approach based on your dog’s individual needs, responses, and capacity for change, allowing learning to progress without unnecessary pressure.
