Helping you to help your dog
My role as a dog behavior consultant is to help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface and guide you through change that’s realistic, respectful, and sustainable. Sustainable means, that, at the end of the day, you won’t need me anymore. Therefore, my goal is to provide you with all the knowledge and tools to transform your current situation. By the end of our journey, you will be the greatest expert about your dog!
What we’ll focus on together
Our work starts with the relationship between you and your dog. Strengthening this bond is the foundation for addressing behavior challenges (or preventing them altogether).
Each human-dog team is unique. This is why each case requires a thorough assessment, including:
An in-depth review of your shared history and daily life
A needs assessment for both you and your dog
Understanding the emotions driving your dog’s behaviors
Improving two-way communication
Building coping strategies and skills that fit your reality
By adopting a mutually respectful approach, based on empathy, evidence-based knowledge and effective communication, you will be able to build or restore the relationship with your dog and live a better life, driven by connection rather than control.
Why online works so well
Working online offers surprising benefits for behavior work:
We can start right away! No travel or delays.
Your dog stays relaxed at home, without added stress from unfamiliar places or people.
Video recordings give us deeper insights than live sessions. We can slow them down, rewatch, and compare progress over time.
You’ll gain self-awareness by watching yourself interact with your dog from a new perspective. This alone can be transformative.
How we will work together
First Assessment Session
We’ll start with a deep dive into your situation: what you’re struggling with, what matters most to you, and what your goals are. Together, we’ll develop a short- and mid-term action plan. After the session, you’ll receive:
A personalized analysis
First-step strategies you can start using right away
Resources and materials to support your learning
Follow-Up Sessions
In these sessions, we’ll review your progress, troubleshoot any obstacles, and adapt the plan as needed. Change takes time, and we’ll go at your pace, keeping in mind your specific situation, possibilities, time restraints, etc.
Your dog is important, but they are not the only ones!
While your dog’s needs are central, your wellbeing is just as important. You can only support your dog effectively if you are in a good place yourself, mentally and emotionally.
That’s why I won’t give you rigid, pre-made protocols that can be found on Youtube. Instead, I’ll guide you in a way that aligns with your energy, capacity, and lifestyle. Your engagement is key to success, and I’ll be here to support and motivate you, so you can do the same for your dog!
