Behavior & Crisis Consultations

Immediate Triage & Decision Making Phone Call      

30-45 minutes         $50

Deciding whether to keep, rehome, or euthanize your dog is not easy and comes with lots of guilt and shame. Not here. I understand the whole picture and the need to make the best decision for your dog, as well as your family. I'll give you my honest feedback on your situation and explain what each path might look like for you. 

This phone call is usually scheduled within 48 hours or less so you can get the support you need right away. 

Behavior & Crisis Consultation      

2 hours      $250

This is a 2-hour in-person session in your home (or another location if needed), typically scheduled within a few days of contact. My goal is to get started as soon as possible so we can get things to a more manageable place and begin moving forward.

You don't have to figure this out on your own.

During this session, we’ll focus on helping you understand your dog, get to the root of the behavior, and create a safety plan right where the issues are happening. We’ll begin putting that plan into place so you can start feeling more in control right away.

The goal is to move you out of crisis and overwhelm, and into a place where learning and next steps feel possible.

Along with putting immediate support in place, we'll talk about what those next steps look like. 

If continued training is the right path, I can connect you with trusted, positive reinforcement trainers who can guide you through that process. Training works best when everyone is calm, safe, and ready to move forward.

In some cases, long-term management may be the most realistic and supportive option. And sometimes, more difficult decisions may come up around safety and well-being. If needed, we’ll talk through all of these possibilities together - no pressure or judgment.
