Behavior Consult for Fear, Anxiety, Reactivity and Aggression $225.00
Initial behavior consultation to assess fear, anxiety, reactivity, and aggression. Based on this consultation and assessment, a training and behavior modification plan will be recommended. Please note, there are rarely "quick fixes" for fear, anxiety, reactivity, and aggression and we use a multi-dimensional approach including management environments, training new behaviors, and, most important, addressing underlying emotional states of your dog. This consult can be conducted in-person or virtually by Zoom or phone. Consult typically lasts 1.5 hours.
Meet with our experienced retail and equipment associates to ensure your dog is properly fitted - and you know how to use - our recommended harnesses and other equipment! Your $20 appointment fee will be applied to your purchase! We request 24-hour cancellation notice; otherwise this fee is non-refundable. Thank you for your understanding!
