Dog Behavior Services and Solutions
Behavior Consultations
First, I will come to your home to observe the behavior of your dog in his/her own environment. Many behaviors will only show themselves in the dog's home and with their family present. I believe that by seeing them in their natural environment I can have a greater insight into the causes of and solutions to the undesired behaviors.
The first consultation can take up to two hours, occasionally longer. This amount of time is often necessary to teach you what I have learned over the years of studying dogs, through my own experiences with them, and observing their behaviors within many settings.
I want to teach you the rewards of being patient, calm, and confident with your dog. Mutual respect and understanding can be achieved and a true relationship/partnership with your dog can be made.
I want to show you what it takes and how to get there.
Cost
A consultation is typically up to 2 hours and costs $400. There are additional fees applied for farther travel times and if lodging is necessary.
Charges can vary and are subject to change. For the most accurate pricing text or call 937-245-0656.

Enrichment Walks
For this service, I will take your dog on a calm, structured walk. They will either be alone with me or with have other pack members along (if this will benefit their experience).
These walks can include a modest playtime that will help to relieve frustration and anxiety in your dog. Dogs need these types of walks in order to fulfill their basic need for companionship and to simply feel like they did something constructive with their day.
Dogs that destroy their beds, other items, are easily excited, or play too forcefully often need these types of walks.
I recommend this service to clients with fearful, anxious, or reactive dogs. Really, all dogs need this type of walk.
I would be glad to teach you my techniques and how they work, so that you too can take your dog on a stress relieving walk.
Cost
We charge $35.00 per walk. $20.00 per additional dog per walk.
Additional charges may apply.
For any questions or for more details please contact us.
Most Therapy Walks take one to two hours and can go as far as three to five miles.
(Some walks will take more or less time based on the natural pace and fitness level of your dog)
Walks will be adapted to your dogs medical needs or restrictions if need be. (ex. dog has joint issues, age restrictions, or health concerns)

One on One Coaching Session
After the initial consultation, some clients may need additional coaching sessions.
These coaching sessions are geared specifically towards practical applications of knowledge and handling techniques for your dog. I will coach you through difficult introductions, places and reactions. Personalized coaching will show you how to focus your message and feelings in these challenging situations.
Cost
The initial fee is $50 for up to one hour.
Cost for this service will vary case by case, since it will be determined by severity of behavior and type of challenge(s).

Bicycle Therapy
I will exercise your dog next to my bicycle for approximately 30 minutes to an hour.
(This will be determined by your dogs fitness level, exercise needs and behavior assessment)
Some individuals and breeds may require a higher physical challenge than a walk to fulfill their athletic needs.
This therapy is not to exhaust the dog or let it practice an excited mind state. It is simply to drain excitement and frustration in the dog.
After your dog's Bicycle Therapy they will receive a "cool down" walk so they can practice being calm and happy. This way they can more readily practice the mind state we want by learning to be calm, obedient, and fulfilled.
Cost
I charge $75.00 for a Bike Therapy session and the included "cool down walk."
Additional charges may apply.
