Behavior Challenge Consults

available in Wyoming, Idaho, Colorado, and beyond

We know there’s more to a well-behaved dog than training. We also know that behavior is communication; it’s an outward expression of what’s happening on the inside. This is particularly relevant when its comes to it comes to bigger, more complex behavior including aggression and reactivity towards people or other dogs, anxiety, fear, conflict in multiple dog households, resource guarding, separation distress. 

We take a holistic and comprehensive approach to address and resolve these kinds of behavior challenges, which negatively impact quality of life for both dogs and the humans they live with. Rather than focus on the symptoms, we aim to get to the source of the behavior. If we can change how the dog is feeling on the inside, the outward expression that is seen as behavior will also change.

Our behavior challenge consultation packages are individually customized to meet the needs of both the humans and the dogs. We begin with an initial Foundations First virtual session, in which we focus on:

-fundamental understanding of canine behavior and communication; 

-how we can adjust and rebalance the big picture influences of behavior; 

-all the options we have to help our dogs feel better so they can behave better

From there, there’s a variety of options; subsequent sessions can be virtual or in person, depending on the challenge and individual situation.
