Life with your dog should be happy, carefree and fun. 
No one gets a dog to make their lives more difficult.

If your dog's behavior makes you uncomfortable and you want real help, consider a Private Behavior Consultation with Beth Ostrowski-Parks, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA,   It is important for you to know that you don't have a "bad dog".  You may have a dog that is displaying behaviors that are inappropriate.  Behavior patterns CAN be improved or corrected.

Here are some behaviors that can quickly take the joy out of living with a dog:

• Overreacting to other dogs while walking on a leash
• Fear aggressive behavior in a puppy or a dog
• Extreme shyness
• Separation anxiety in your puppy or dog
• Territorial aggressive behavior
• Aggressive behavior towards people (loved ones or visitors)
• Resource guarding (aggression around items or space towards you or other dogs)

Or you may have less intense problems that you want some one-on-one help with like:

• House training for your dog or puppy
• Redirecting chewing behaviors
• Appropriate greeting behavior to family and friends

Fee:  $225.00 for your 90 minute appointment.

This is what you get when you sign up for your consultation:

1) An intensive 90 minute meeting with an experienced and Certified Canine Behavior Consultant.   Beth has over 25 years of experience in this field.  As soon as you book this meeting, you will receive a comprehensive questionnaire about the problems you are having with your dog.    At your appointment, Beth will discuss how you and your dog will be helped based on her knowledge and experience with thousands of dogs.  You will walk away feeling so much more confident about what is going on and what to expect!  

2)  You will receive a copy of our Dog Training DVD (3 hours of training, well organized for you to follow so you can begin to teach your dog the basics) and a copy of our Puppy and Dog Training Booklet which is full of information to help you gain control around the house.  Training is a 24/7 operation.  You will be amazed at how much your choices throughout a day can make a difference in your dog's world JUST by being more confident and clear.  

3) A plan!  Learning is only as good as its practice so depending on which direction we select, you will be able to select follow up training in the form of:

• Group classes if possible
• Private lessons
• Our online course
• OR All of the above.  We have so many different options.

Fee:  $225.00 includes your personal 90 minute appointment and all materials mentioned above.
