Family Dog Foundations
Not sure where to begin? You’re not alone.
This program is designed for families feeling overwhelmed by their dog’s behavior—especially when love and effort just don’t seem to be enough.
We’ll build a plan rooted in understanding, not blame, and help your life together feel more manageable and connected.
You’ll also have guidance and tools between sessions, so you can move forward with clarity in real-life moments—not just during training time.

Licensed Dial Guide
Every Foundations package includes access to The Dial Method®—a science-backed, human-focused framework that helps you feel confident and clear between sessions.
Created by The Family Dog, this structured video + workbook experience gives you practical tools to support your dog right in the middle of real life—on the floor, in your living room, during your actual Tuesday.
We’ll use the version that fits your household—whether that’s a family with kids or an adult-only home. Either way, the content is focused on building clarity, consistency, and connection.
Video access lasts for 6 months, giving you plenty of time to revisit the material at your own pace.

What kind of support do I get between sessions?
-
After each live session, you’ll receive a summary with key takeaways, next steps, and resources. These are personalized and delivered by email.
-
Some packages include the option to send in a short video clip (1–2 minutes) between sessions. I’ll review and provide brief written feedback to help troubleshoot or fine-tune your progress.
-
If your package includes “lightweight asynchronous support,” this means you’re welcome to send one brief check-in per week via email or text—maybe to share a quick update, small win, or clarifying question. I’ll reply within 48 hours (Monday through Friday) with encouragement or a suggestion to help keep things moving.
If your question is more in-depth, or if we’re working through a more complex issue, we may roll it into our next live session or talk about scheduling additional support.
