Help & Support You Need that You & Your Dog Can Trust
"We need to learn to understand the language of dogs so that we can understand what our dogs are telling us. That is the secret of having a good life together." Turid Rugaas
It's about more than just "training".
The human-dog connection is incredible and one that spans centuries, but that doesn't mean we always understand each other. Modern family homes can be confusing and difficult for dogs, it’s not easy being a “pet” in our modern, human-centric world. In fact, it can be quite confusing, scary, and downright frustrating for many dogs. It’s also not always easy for US to understand the reasons behind our dog’s behaviors or how to navigate them. These hurdles can cause quite a gap in our ability to live harmoniously together. And ultimately, living our best life with our dogs and ensuring they live their best life is what it’s all about, right?! So, how do we bridge this gap? Here’s a tip, it's not just about training, in fact, it's about a whole lot more. The truth is, you can’t “obedience” your way out of behavior problems and into a mutually harmonious life. Understanding the WHYs behind your dog’s behaviors and what their needs are is where we need to start, and if you’re ready, I can help.
Family Dog Mediation®
As a certified Family Dog Mediator®, my mission is to bridge the communication gap between people and their dogs. So many "problem behaviors" in our dogs are actually symptoms of bigger issues at hand. And the reality is, you can't even begin to address those "problem" behaviors effectively and compassionately until you know why they are occurring; that's where the widely celebrated and respected Dog L.E.G.S.® Model comes in.
Together, we will discover who your dog is and what he's been trying to tell you, so we can then scientifically and compassionately bridge the gap between you for lasting success.
