Canine Companion Consulting, we train dogs one human at a time using positive research-based methods.
One of Canine Companion Consulting’s specialties is Separation Anxiety. Separation Anxiety is a very common behavioral concern in dogs. Studies vary, but indicate that up to 20% of all dogs have separation anxiety on some level and account for up to 40% of dogs referred to trainers or behaviorists. Separation anxiety can manifest itself in many ways. Symptoms of separation anxiety can be but is not limited to inappropriate elimination, destroying things within the household, barking, whining, panting and not being able to settle when the pet parent is not present. Some dogs are attached to a particular person and some dogs just need someone or another animal present. Not only can it be extremely stressful for the dog, but also for the pet parents.
We offer a variety of group classes throughout the year, such as Canine Training Basics, Canine College, Agility For Fun, “From Exuberant to Polite Pup”, “Do As I Do”, Loose Leash Walking, Rocket Recall, "Fitness FUR All”, “Mind, Body, Nose”, and Mastering Door Behavior.
There is no place like home. In-home training allows the Canine Behavior Consultants to observe your dog in their natural environment and cater to your specific needs. Training comes easier to a dog that does not have distractions and is in the comfort of their own home. Let us come to you to help you have a better relationship with your Canine Companion.
Veterinary care and grooming can be stressful for the dog, pet parent, and pet professionals. Reducing stress and anxiety results in a more productive practice and increased likelihood pet parents will participate in needed preventative and routine care. The Hospital or Salon will become a safer, more productive, and more comfortable environment for all. We have designed a Cooperative Care Program called Happy Handling that can be offered to canines of all ages, either as a group class or privately, depending on the client. We collaborate with the pet parent and pet professional to find out what will work best for each canine companion. We will consult with doctors and groomers to find out what they recommend and are striving for. We work as a team to target the Happy Handling every dog deserves.

You can schedule an appointment on our web site or call us. When we meet with you for the very first time we will ask you about the behaviors you are concerned about. We will document our findings in a Behavior Report that we will email to you. We will give you lots of information and recommendations based on your life style and your canine companion(s). From there we will tailor a training plan to meet your needs. We are available between appointments to answer your questions.
