Behavior Consultation

Behavior Consultation

People and dogs just seem to naturally go together.  Life with a dog can be blissful and lots of fun.  But because we all have expectations of our new puppy or dog, sometimes things don't exactly go as planned.  One thing is for sure:  No one gets a dog to make their life more difficult.  But sometimes behavior problems in dogs will make people feel stressed and overwhelmed.  This becomes a vicious cycle because then everyone is on edge.  If you feel overwhelmed by your dog's behavior, try to relax.  I'm sure I can help!

Does your dog?

  • Overreact when he sees other dogs 
  • Have a lot of fear of new people or things
  • Seem to have separation anxiety 
  • Show aggression around territory or posessions

Or do you have less intense problems that you need help with such as:

  • House training for your dog or puppy
  • Learning how to re-direct chewing behaviors
  • "Over-the-top" greeting behavior towards family and friends

If your dog's behavior makes you uncomfortable and you want consistent professional help, consider a Private Behavior Consultation with me, Beth Ostrowski-Parks, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA. 

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

1) An intensive Two Hour meeting with me.  As soon as you book this meeting, you will receive a "thank you" page which tells you what to expect and what to bring to your consultation.  You will also receive  comprehensive questionnaire about the problems you are having with your dog.    By the time you come for your appointment, I will have looked thoroughly at that questionnaire to help me find other ways to help you and your dog.  At your appointment, I will discuss how you and your dog can relax and enjoy life more.   You will walk away feeling so much more confident about what is going on and what to expect in the future.

2)  Depending on the age of your puppy or dog, you will receive a copy of our Puppy and Dog Training Booklet or our Ultimate Puppy Class booklet.  Both are full of information to help you gain control around your home.

3) You will get access to our FULL Basic Manners Online Course for one full year.   This is alone is a  $119.00 value.

4) A plan!  Learning is only as good as its practice so depending on which direction you and I select after your consultation, you will be able to select follow up training in
the form of:

  • Group classes if possible
  • Private lessons
  • OR Both options above. 

The fee for the time spent on your questionnaire and the time spent with you and your dog AND the Online Basic Manners Course is $395.00



My husband and I brought Gunnar home when he was 8 weeks old prior to my husband’s deployment. He was the first dog we owned as adults. At his first vet visit, we were advised to get him into training right away because he was already showing aggressive behavior. Read More

After 3 months of basic puppy training classes at two different facilities his behavior was worse. He was biting us and visitors that came to our home, as well as chewing the walls, furniture, and eating anything he could fit into his mouth. He would growl and bite when I would put his collar or harness on him. He would jump on people and bite them on their arms and torso, and would bite people trying to take objects from him. During an emergency visit to the vet after he ate a kitchen sponge, he tried biting the emergency vet and staff. I knew I needed much more help or I was going to lose my dog or be sued if he injured someone.

After searching extensively online, I found Beth at It’s PAWSible! She listened to me and developed a plan to help not just my dog, but also help me become a more confident and capable owner. She was very understanding and patient and went out of her way to assist my family beyond just the lessons. She consulted our vet, recommended everything from a change in diet to books to read and videos to watch that helped me understand canine behavior and offered more in depth training in both one to one and small group classes.

We started with Gunnar in October of 2018 with a behavior consultation and we’ve been attending group classes since then!

Now Gunnar is attending weekly dog agility classes at It’s PAWSible! and he is a happy, healthy, and friendly dog. I’m proud to say he loves meeting new people and is eager to learn. Thank you so much for everything Beth!

Courtney, Chris and Gunnar
