The bond starts here.
Build trust, resilience, and real-life readiness.

Support that grows with your puppy—and your family.

  • Puppy Partnership

    Welcoming a puppy into your life is exciting—and let’s be honest, sometimes overwhelming.

    Whether you're welcoming your first puppy or it's simply been a while, this program is here to help you feel confident and supported every step of the way.

    Together, we’ll build trust, establish routines, and help your puppy navigate the human world with more ease and resilience.

    This is about creating a relationship you both can grow into—not just checking off boxes.

    You’ll also have access to simple, structured tools to support you between sessions—so you’re never left wondering what to do next.

  • Growing Up Together

    Families who complete Puppy Partnership will have access to future support options as their dog matures.

    Future support options may include:

    • Behavior check-ins

    • Ongoing coaching opportunities

    • Enrichment outings and real-world practice

Licensed Dial Guide

All Puppy Packages include 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.

You’ll have 6 months to access the video, giving you plenty of time to revisit the material whenever you need it.

What kind of support do I get between sessions?

  • After each live session, you’ll receive a personalized summary with key takeaways, practice suggestions, and guidance tailored to your puppy’s stage of development. Notes are delivered by email.

  • If included in your package, you’re welcome to submit one short video clip (1–2 minutes) each week. I’ll review and send written feedback to help you adjust or fine-tune your approach.

  • If you’re in the Puppy+ program, you also have access to light support between sessions. This means you can send one short email or text per week—perfect for a quick update, clarifying question, or a ā€œthis just happenedā€ moment. I’ll reply within 48 hours (Monday–Friday).

    If your question needs deeper attention or we hit a bigger challenge, we’ll either fold it into our next session or talk about adding extra support.
