Behavior Consulting
How we support the dog & family
We seek to first understand the WHYs of a dog’s behavior, their unique L.E.G.S.® (Learning, Environment, Genetics, Self) or needs. We then consider how that all intersects with the needs of the family, to provide humane and reward-based strategies through Family Dog Mediation®. We view our work as a team approach which involves the behavior consultant, the family, their dog, and collaboration with the veterinary team and other dog pros. Each party plays a unique role in supporting the well-being of the dog in front of us!
