Behavior Coaching
Many dogs struggle to fit into modern life in an urban environment, and this can lead to some challenging behavioral issues. My goal as a trainer and behavior consultant is to empower you with a deeper understanding of your dog's needs and behaviors, while equipping you with positive reinforcement techniques to help you achieve your training goals.
I take a holistic, welfare centered approach to addressing behavioral issues. All training begins with an initial consultation. If I suspect your dog may be struggling with undiagnosed discomfort I may recommend you upgrade to a Dynamic Dog Assessment.
​
I offer private dog training in San Francisco, CA as well as virtual options for anyone outside of the Bay Area.
