During the Initial Consultation, we will discuss your dog's behavior and training needs for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. We will determine the best course of action and how I can assist you and your dog on your training journey. The consultation can be done in person if you're local or via Zoom if you're not. Virtual dog training is also available for anyone, regardless of their location.
Since this is not a training session, I will take notes while you come prepared with questions and concerns about your dog's training journey and what your goals are.

Customer Reviews
We had a great experience with Allison! We rescued a dog that needed some intense training, and Allison met Wesley’s needs as well as our needs and was willing to work with us and him in whatever way possible to make it successful for us. He has made great strides over the last 8 months!
- Paige RAllison took the time to learn my dog’s personality, behaviors, and triggers so she could help me to train him out of his undesirable patterns. Now I can communicate with him and even keep the curtains open because he doesn’t bark excessively and I know how to focus him if he gets overstimulated. He’s a great dog. Allison saw that from the start and worked with him and me to create a more peaceful life for us. I’d recommend her over and over.
- Jenny SWorking with Allison has been a delight! We started working with her as new residents of Litchfield county after adopting our second puppy, a rescue from a relatively unknown background. She has been incredible with both our pups - from basic skills, to more complex behavioral issues, we’ve seen a vast improvement in only a short time. She is warm, reliable, respectful, effective and the puppies love seeing her! Can’t recommend her enough! - Litchfield County, Connecticut
