Behavior Consulting
Personalized and Professional
Every now and then you may need assistance with something a bit more serious than normal dog training. This may be aggression towards other dogs or other people or separation anxiety. This can be a very stressful time but be assured it is nothing unusual and we have worked on it before.
​
Individual Session: Two hour in home or local area session. This is designed to show you what to do, get a bit of movement and we leave you with your homework to work on. You will know how to read your dog better and know the steps. Cost $380. This is total for the 2 hour session. Simon will work with you during this time. If dog aggression this requires our own dogs to see what reaction we get out of your dog. This is done in public as this is often where the issue occurs.
​
Package: During this package period we will work with you to achieve success. Each session is usually 2 weeks apart and 1 x 2 hour session followed by 2 x 1 hour follow ups. Cost: $640
​
Court ordered training: If we are working with you for court ordered training this is at $195 per hour. This is because the training is more intense and often requires follow up letters for you lawyers and animal control.
I think dogs are the most amazing creatures , they give unconditional love. For me they are the role model for being alive.
