Service Area Map: these are general guidelines, exceptions are made when we can make it work!
We do offer virtual sessions via ZOOM*. *Prices are the same except there are no travel fees.
Consider a Hybrid when buying a package. If your dog is very fearful or aggressive doing a Virtual Consultation first is a good idea.
We can mix your sessions with Virtual & In-Home visits.

You want practical, effective solutions without wasting time or money on superficial techniques, unnecessary exercises, or harsh methods.
What you need is real help—science-based answers that address what’s truly going on with your dog. Relying on "training" to fix behavior issues is like landscaping a house with a crumbling foundation. It’s smarter to bring in experts who can identify and fix the real problems.
The LEGS framework helps identify the key factors:
Learning: patterns and associations
Environment: surroundings and relationships
Genetics: inherited traits
Self: individual conditions
Our consultations uncover the root causes of your dog's behavior to guide you toward effective solutions. We also work with your veterinarian, groomer, and daycare to provide the best support for your dog.
