I offer online dog training by coaching you as you train your dog. We'll talk through what's happening, what you've already tried, and what you'd like your dog to do instead. I'll help you choose manageable steps, understand what to reward, and fit the practice into your daily routine. The aim is to help you teach useful skills with the time and space you have.
Start with the situation
You don't need to have the problem neatly labeled before you get in touch. Tell me what your pet does, where it happens, and what you need to do in that situation. Details such as who's nearby, how much space your pet has, and whether they've had a chance to rest can help explain what's going on. That gives us a better place to begin than trying exercises at random.
Practical steps, at your pet's pace
I use positive reinforcement, with management as a starting point. If your dog rushes toward the front door, a gate and a little distance may make it easier to practice waiting somewhere else. Then we can reward that useful alternative and increase the difficulty in manageable steps. Comfort, rest, and realistic routines belong in the plan, too.
Ask about online coaching
Send me a little about your pet and the question you'd like help with. Include what you've tried and anything that makes the situation harder to manage. I'll let you know about current availability and whether online coaching looks like a useful fit before we arrange anything.
