Stranger Danger
If your dog is aggressive towards guests at your home, or barks and lunges at people out and about, I have a specially designed plan for you. My stranger danger plan guides you through the four key steps of having people visit with a reactive dog in the home, with both online sessions and in person sessions with me as your “guest”.
All of my behaviour change programs begin with an online consultation. This is a 60-75 minute online video call for $200 (plus GST) and includes the following:
- A thorough discussion of your dog’s behaviour problem, probable causes, and likely prognosis
- Management strategies and first steps to keep problems from escalating and keep everyone safe
- Personalized template for behavioural wellness
- Product recommendations/where to buy
- Simplified first behaviour modification steps
- Video review and feedback (You’re encouraged to submit videos prior to our meeting)
- Body language resources
- A letter/behaviour report for your vet, strata/homeowner’s association or Animal Control if needed
- Pet Insurance Paperwork completion
- Follow up package recommendations and explanation
- Access to all information for 6 months or the full length of your behaviour modification package
We begin with some online sessions to ensure that your dog is ready to either meet me or ready to start seeing visitors to the home. After that, in person sessions help you get a solid plan in place. If you live outside the Sooke or Westshore area, we can still do in person sessions where you transfer what you learn to your own home.
Your sessions will include:
- Management skills and games
- Exercise and enrichment recommendations for behavioural fulfillment
- Introducing me to your reactive dog
- Navigating neighbourhood walks
- Written homework uploaded to your personal Google Drive Folder
- Video review and email support available during the package
