Approach

As your guide, together we will work to restore harmony & balance within both you and your companion, gently but with clear focus. I have helped many dog/human duos to shift imbalances in behavior, particularly when dealing with:
  • jumping up on people
  • pulling on the leash
  • poor recall
  • protective behaviors
  • reactivity to people and dogs
  • food issues/resource guarding
  • destructive behaviors
  • counter surfing
  • separation anxiety
  • hyper and difficult-to-manage puppies
  • excessive barking
  • fixating or lack of focus
  • lunging
  • marking
  • and more…
What Can You Expect to Experience as a Result?
  • Calmer Behavior
  • Deeper Connection and Understanding Viewpoints
  • Better Listening and Regard for You
  • Greater Sense of Peace and Coherence
  • Enjoyable Walks
  • Ability to Blow Through Sticky Situations
  • Manage Barking, Chewing, Resource Guarding
  • Having Guests Over in a Calm Fashion
  • Trust in Your Leadership Role
  • Increased Confidence
  • Improved Social Skills
  • And More…

Working Together

In a session, we dive deep into how your dog perceives the world so you can step more into understanding what's causing your dog's behavior. Of course, each dog and relationship is unique, so we look at how your dog may need further support mentally, physically, emotionally and energetically.

​With your commitment to consistent implementation of the practices we share in our time together, in conjunction with holding awareness around your thoughts and feelings, remarkable transformation and growth open up to you and this new way of experiencing life together. 

Many of the practices I share with you generally ask only an extra moment of your time or patience with some focused attention on your energy (though not to be replaced with the daily exercise and mental stimulation your dog needs!). So on those busier days, you can still apply these mindful techniques with minimal time commitment.

Surprising and rewarding insights, such as uncovering aspects of your dog’s behavior that they may be mirroring to you, will often unfold along the way, which can be such rich learning for everyone involved. Although this may sometimes feel uncomfortable or even confronting, be assured that your dog is presenting in this way as a loving service and an invitation for a healthier change for you both. It is my deep honour to offer a safe space without judgement.

Although I am not an expert in the areas of whole food diet, supplements and other holistic methods to assist our animal companions, I have a fair amount of knowledge and experience in these areas and have witnessed some pretty impressive results. In some cases, I may share some suggestions, such as dietary adjustments, Bach Flower Essences, Homeopathy, or utilizing the healing properties of crystals to assist in bringing your beloved back into greater balance.

Awareness & Mindfulness in ALL of your interactions is key to experiencing different results.
