The pet behavior and training fields are unregulated. Unfortunately, that means that anyone can use the terms “dog trainer”, “behavior consultant”, and “behaviorist” as they please without any qualifications or education to back it up. Sure, parts of the industry will reserve certain terms for people with certain qualifications, but that’s not a hard and fast rule and certainly is not consistent enough to trust title alone.

We call ourselves “pet behavior consultants” because we feel it best describes what we do. We consult on animal behavior. The certifications we’ve received are primarily called “Certified Dog Behavior Consultant” certifications.

We’re the ones that team up with you to help you understand your dog more so you can live more harmoniously lives together.

We’re the ones that help you work through dog behavior problems so you can live the kind of life you desire for you and your pet.

Here’s how we can help you correct course, find custom solutions, and get relief.
