How Do Online Virtual Sessions Work?
Online Virtual Sessions work in a couple of ways. The most popular approach is using a computer, ipad or tablet device with a web camera and strong internet connection. If you do not have access to a web camera, phone calls can be arranged.
We use Zoom, which is a FREE online video chat program to our clients; not to mention it is easy to access. This makes online sessions stress-free and enjoyable for all! Online Virtual Sessions can be done from anywhere in the world! This means you do not need to live near us to schedule a session.
To get started, fill out the intake form by clicking the “Get Started” button.
During the initial consultation, we will:
- Take a thorough history on your dog (if your dog has specific behavior issues)
- Discuss your goals and concerns to develop a training or behavior plan
- Provide answers to all of your questions
- For dogs with behavior issues, we will discuss strategies to implement so that you can safely manage your dog and the behaviors of concern
- Review any video footage you have on your dog (Video footage does not need to be specific to the behavior issue(s).)
- Introduce training and/or behavior modification skills and concepts
- In most cases, we will start hands-on training together during the consult
- If needed, we will happily work in conjunction with your veterinarian or veterinary behaviorist to provide the greatest success for your dog during the behavior modification process
