We’ll celebrate your progress thus far, review and go over the next steps in training, and troubleshoot any problems you’ve run into. I will address any questions you have about management, and revisit goals. As always, post session you’ll receive any relevant handouts, notes, and homework.

Why work with me?
-
Empathy
Navigating frustrating or scary behavior with your dog can feel challenging and heartbreaking. I come to each session with empathy, kindness, and compassion.
-
Transparency
During our sessions, you’re welcome to ask questions about my proposed training methods. I always want you and your dog to feel safe and comfortable.

Credentials
Although dog training is unregulated in the United States, I prioritize maintaining certifications and continuing education to bring you best practices and peace of mind.
“Lizzy's passion for what she does is so evident, and it's a privilege to get to work with her. I would recommend her 1:1 training without hesitation. A bonus - we feel pretty cool when our 5 month old pup has better recall than almost every other dog we know! Not only is it exciting to have our dog listen to us, it's even more exciting to watch her learn and respond to techniques so quickly (she likes to succeed, too!).
Five stars is an understatement! Thanks, Lizzy!”
