Behavior Consultations
Private Training Sessions
One-on-one help with behavior-related problems and basic manners
The first session will be our initial consultation where I obtain pertinent information from you, explain fundamentals of learning theory and behavior, and talk about goals and expectations. I then start creating a training plan with you, and decide the first steps to get you on the right track. Consultations run around1.5 hours on average.
Initial consultations are offered virtually as well as in-person, when necessary. Virtual consultations are helpful when it is not necessary to physically see or handle the dog in question. In addition, this helps keep dogs with any behavior problems stress-levels reduced, which is important in chronically stressed dogs.
In our consultation you will be learning about your own canine companion, and will get the best lasting results by staying hands-on with your own dog- obtaining the knowledge from your professional trainer needed to help you and your dog(s) live in harmony.
Following each session I do send you a detailed email with everything we discussed, additional helpful information, and further resources.
After the initial consultation you can schedule follow-up sessions whenever it is needed. These can really delve into the training plan as well as troubleshooting and tracking progress. There are discounted packages available if there are multiple goals or complex behaviors and more support is needed.
I am here for you every step of the way on this journey!
It is important to note that Kera follows the latest science, uses positive methods, and makes sure everyone involved is comfortable with the process.
