Before we can change the behavior, we have to understand it. My initial consultation is a 60-minute behavioural deep-dive designed to get to the root of your pet's struggles.
Whether we’re tackling "invisible luggage" in a new rescue or a long-standing habit, this session is where we build your roadmap to success.
What’s Included:
A Full History Review: We’ll discuss your pet's past, health, and lifestyle to see the "big picture."
Expert Observation: I’ll assess your pet’s body language and environment to identify specific triggers.
Management Strategies: You’ll get immediate, practical tools to keep things safe and calm while we work.
Bespoke Roadmap: Following our visit, you’ll receive a written summary and a clear, science-based plan tailored to your home.
Why a Consultation?
Every pet is an individual. A dog barking on a walk might be scared, frustrated, or over-excited, and each needs a different approach. This session ensures we use the right methods for your pet, saving you time and stress.
Duration: 60 Minutes

The "Heavy Lifting" Phase
We’ll deep-dive into the Roadmap from the initial consultation and go into more detail. These 60-minute sessions are where the real transformation happens. I’ll be by your side to coach you through the techniques, refine your timing, and adjust the plan as your pet progresses.
What we focus on:
Hands-on Coaching: I guide you through the training protocols so you feel confident doing them alone.
Progress Tracking: We review what’s working and tweak the plan based on how your pet is responding.
Troubleshooting: We tackle any new "hiccups" that have popped up since our last visit.
These sessions ensure you stay on track and supported until your goals are met.

From Shelter to Sofa: A Supported Transition
Bringing home a rescue dog or cat is a life-changing experience, but it often comes with "invisible luggage"—the fears, quirks, and habits of a past life. This package is specifically designed for the first 90 days of adoption (the critical 3-3-3 period), providing a safety net of professional support while your pet learns to trust again.
What’s Included:
The Initial Deep-Dive (60 mins): We’ll assess your pet’s decompression needs and set up a "safe-zone" protocol to prevent early stress-related behaviours.
Two Practical Follow-Up Sessions (60 mins each): As your pet’s true personality begins to emerge, we’ll work hands-on to build their confidence, tackle reactivity, or resolve house-training and settling issues.
The Rescue Roadmap: A written, step-by-step guide tailored to your pet’s specific history and needs.
Priority Email Support: Between sessions, you’ll have a direct line to me for those "is this normal?" moments.
Why a Package?
Rehabilitation isn't a one-time event; it’s a process. By committing to a package, we ensure that as your pet moves through the different stages of settling in, the support is already in place.
Total Support: 1 Consultation + 2 Follow-ups
