What to Expect
Preparing for Your Virtual Consultation
Before your Coach can help you work on specific areas of concern, all new clients are required to book and complete an initial consultation.
Your virtual consultation includes a complete look at all four areas of human-animal conflict and review of the complete household dynamic. Your Coach will provide you with an assessment of the individual behaviours of concern. Your coach will strategically develop a problem resolution and management plan.
When done in-person (available only in our local areas), your Coach will visit your home and cover the identical content you will find available virtually. The session lasts 2 hour and the Coach is able to observe your dog as well as demonstrate techniques and protocols with your dog. In our virtual consultation, we navigate this limitation by requiring you to send us eight videos of your dog in specific scenarios prior to your live session with your coach. Your coach will provide you with video demonstrations tailored catered for you and your dog.
Please send your Coach 8 separate videos capturing the your dog's behaviour in the following scenarios:
(videos must be no more than 5 minutes long each)
- A guest or visitor arriving in the home
- Crated or tethered & being allowed out/off
- Going outside in the yard or on leash for a quick pee break
- Walking in your local neighbourhood on leash
- Engaging in play with a toy
- In proximity to other dogs while leashed
- Being fed and eating
- Engaging in affection based activities with family members.
