Behavior Modification

Does our dog lunge, bark, or otherwise lose their cool when walking past other dogs? Do they tear things up when you are gone? Or are they uncomfortable with strangers or new situations? Getting to the root of a larger (or compilation of ‘smaller’) behavior issues requires asking the right questions, and not just addressing the symptoms.  During the initial assessment we will paint a holistic picture of your dog and the behavior concerns, and what underlying emotional response is creating the symptoms.  From there, a personalized behavior plan will be developed and Amy will teach you how to manage and address the behavior concerns, with the goal of reducing the stress and negative emotion your dog is experiencing.  By reducing the stress and negative emotions, we will reduce the concerning behaviors.

Behavior modification sessions can address behaviors like reactivity, separation related stress, shy or fearful behavior, difficulty controlling impulses, and resource guarding.

Preparing for a newcomer

Amy offers a package of 3 or more developmental sessions, meant to prepare for a new baby, assist in adjusting once baby has arrived, as well as continue to adjust as your baby develops and becomes mobile.
