Behavior Modification - Addressing any undesirable behavior.  It starts with an accurate diagnosis of the problem which is crucial.  For example: a fearful dog could be misdiagnosed as aggressive and the approach to rehabilitate each case would be very different.  This must be done through a consultation.  At no time should a professional give advice without first observing the dog. After this takes place we can establish the best plan that will suit your dogs needs as well as yours.

Walking/Hiking/Socialization - It is important for your dog to have a schedule for exercise as well as play.  Unfortunately, many pet owners do not have enough time in their busy day to accommodate this.  Whether it is going for a walk through the neighborhood, a hike in the mountains or having some play time we can help with this.  Sometimes this alone can resolve an issue a dog has like chewing or excessive barking.

Rescue Selection - Thinking of adopting a shelter dog?  This service can help to make sure the appropriate dog becomes a part of your family and achieve a smoother integration into the household.

Overcoming your phobia of dogs - Whether or not it is due to a negative experience or lack of contact.  I will be happy to help with this.  It is a free service aimed to educate and promote healthy social relationships between humans and dogs.  Many people who have used this service go on to bring home a rescue dog and to become part of the family.
