Who can Creating Momentum Canine Coaching help? 
  • ​Are you ready, willing, and able to work remotely with a canine behavior coach/counselor so you can learn how to train and manage you own dog from the comfort of your home?
  • ​Do you need affordable, travel-free, realistic solutions to problem behavior in a way that teaches you how to help your dog succeed?
  • ​Do you have capacity to use Zoom?
  • Do you have the ability to take and share video (when/if necessary)?
  • Do you have the ability to implement training plans with your own dog (since there is no In-Person Training offered) 
  • Virtual behavior coaching is not for everyone. If you do need a trainer to come to your home, Creating Momentum Canine Coaching will not be able to provide what you seek. However don't underestimate the ability to train your own dog successfully with online counseling and coaching support. 

The Mission of Creating Momentum Canine Coaching:  
Through virtual consultations and virtual counseling sessions only, I educate and coach you about dog behavior and learning theory in layman's terms. We build a training plan and work through it in as few sessions as necessary. Through the use of a
least intrusive, minimally aversive positive approach, you will learn how to continue to teach your pet basic obedience, life skills, fun tricks, and/or manage unwanted behaviors.

Services:

The First Step: Consultation

1. Request your consult by emailing [email protected]. You will complete an intake form and schedule a Zoom appointment.

Initial Consultation: $75. Includes: Intake review + 45 minute zoom consultation + written summary of personalized recommendations for the future and/or referrals to other resources/services if necessary + one week of email access for coaching guidance and advice. (Expect 24 hour response time or less to email Monday through Friday only.)  

​If I discover your pet's issue is outside of the scope of my current skillset, I will identify other appropriate resources, services, and/or other highly qualified professionals who may be able to assist you. I want you and your dog to succeed even if not from working with me. ​

2. Online Remote Behavior Training/Coaching Sessions with email support: Each session consists of a 45-minute Zoom session. 

Education and guidance about animal behavior and learning theory is provided. I answer your questions. I walk you through the training plan. I summarize by email the key points from our session. Together, we will create a clear, specific, realistic training plan that you can implement with guidance and support. For up to 1 week after our online session, you will have unlimited access to my coaching guidance via email. (Expect 24 hour response time or less to email Monday through Friday only).

Through the use of videos (yours or mine), we work together to shape or modify the behavior of your pet through positive, kind, and compassionate methods. $60 per session.

Online Remote Training Packages:
(a) 4 scheduled zoom sessions to be used within an 8 week period. 

(b) Unlimited accesss to email coaching guidance for 1 week after each zoom session. (Expect 24 hour response time or less to email Monday through Friday only.)  I want you to share you progress and ask me questions as you work through your training plans. This includes the review of videos you send me of your training efforts.

(c) Packages are to be paid in full and are non-refundable. This policy aims to motivate you to make your committment to training your dog a priority, to encourage you to communicate with me often, and to allow you the chance to get a greater value for your dollar. Dogs learn best when trained using a high rate of reward in a short time. A few weeks or months of consistent repetitive training with support and coaching could save you and your dog a lifetime of struggle.

4 session package = $200

I have been there myself. 

  I understand how exhausting, overwhelming, upsetting, frustrating, and even scary it can be to adopt a challenging dog. I know what it feels like to want life with a reactive dog to improve while not knowing what to do next. I offer compassionate, judgement-free, educational, evidence-based, and supportive pet owner coaching.

We can teach your dog basic obedience and work to overcome challenges together.
