Covid-19
With the current restrictions around groups of people and the need for physical distances, many of our classes and consultations are online. As things open up we'll be teaching with a combination of media and outdoor classes so you can stay comfortable and safe while you learn. There's very little that we can't do through programs like Zoom. Contact me if you need something urgent or specific and I'll help if I can.

Behavior Consulting
Accommodating Your Lifestyle
Behaviour Consulting work involves an intimate understanding of your animal’s natural and individual history. Your pet has plenty of potential to learn and understand, and my techniques will lay the foundation for you to build upon.
