Fear, Aggression, & More

We help worried, stressed out, anxious, angry, frustrated dogs (and owners) get their wag back!

Dogs and pups sometimes struggle with behaviors that have a negative impact on both their lives and yours. Aggression towards humans, aggression towards other dogs/pets, debilitating fear, and anxiety are just some examples of “behavior concerns” that can decrease quality of life.

We will work with you -and your veterinarian /dog walker /groomer /anyone involved in your dog’s life - as a team, to safely address the underlying causes of your dog’s behavior (not just the symptoms), to get results that will leave you feeling knowledgeable and empowered. We have both the experience AND the education to be able to help without causing harm!

The first step is to schedule a Behavior Consultation. This is tailored to you and your dog’s specific needs; no two consults are the same.

Online Behavior Consultations run for 75-90 minutes and consist of:

  • Thorough history taking

  • Video review

  • Assessment & Recommendations

  • Goal setting

  • Intro training (if applicable)

  • Next steps

    Investment: $275

We can help with...

  • Fear/Anxiety/Stress

  • Rescue Dogs

  • Aggression to humans

  • Aggression to dogs

  • Vet/Groomer Handling

  • & More!

“I adopted a German Shepherd who had reactivity towards both dogs and people. I wanted to help him learn how to handle those scary situations, so I gave Vic a call. After working with her I am now equipped with the “tools” I need to ensure that Otto has a pleasant experience when we are walking no matter what we encounter. And now he happily greets guests, no longer barking or lunging at everyone coming into our home!

I’m so grateful for Vic’s help and would recommend her to everyone!”

-Stephanie C. & Otto, 2020

All behavior consultations are online with only special exceptions. We have worked with enough dogs and unique behavior challenges to know that we do not have to see the problem to get to the bottom of it and create a plan for you. We have also learned that training goes better when started online, since your dog learns to focus on you, instead of the stranger in the room. Follow up coaching can be in-person in our service area, or online.
