Private Consultations

Private Consultations offer personalized, one-on-one guidance for you and your dog, focusing on specific behavioural challenges and training goals. Whether you prefer an in-person session at our training facility or the convenience of an in-home consultation, we tailor each session to suit your needs. Phone or video consultations are also available for a flexible approach to addressing day-to-day training concerns.

What to Expect:

Initial Discussion: During your consultation, Melissa will gather background information about your dog’s behaviours and training history. You’ll discuss the specific challenges you’re facing and the goals you want to achieve.

Personalized Plan: Together, you’ll create a management and training plan designed for your dog. This plan will include approximately one month of training homework to implement at home.

Follow-Up Support: For most clients, one consultation is enough to reach their desired outcomes. However, follow-up sessions can be scheduled as needed for additional support.

How to Book:

Booking your consultation is easy! Simply select a time that works for you using our online scheduling system below, fill out the intake survey, and finalize your booking. You’ll receive an email confirmation once your appointment is confirmed.

In-Person Consultations

An In-Person Consultation at our facility is ideal for dogs who need a distraction-free environment to focus on their training. Our purpose-built space helps minimize external distractions, giving dogs a clear setting to concentrate on learning new behaviours. If your dog needs to work on specific skills such as obedience, leash manners, or confidence-building, our facility offers the perfect space for structured, effective training sessions.

In-Home Consultations

An In-Home Consultation is ideal if you’re looking to address your dog’s behaviour in their natural environment. Dogs often exhibit different behaviours at home, and this setting allows us to assess how they respond to their surroundings, routines, and family dynamics. If your dog struggles with specific issues like house training, anxiety, or unwanted behaviours within the home, an In-Home Consultation is the perfect way to get targeted advice and solutions.

Phone & Video Consultations

Phone and Video Consultations offer flexible options for addressing everyday training concerns. Whether you’re struggling with puppy raising, house training, recall issues, jumping, counter surfing, or other behavioural challenges. Please note that phone or video consultations are not suitable for dogs exhibiting aggression towards people or other dogs.
