  • Puppy Partnership

    Welcoming a puppy into your life is exciting—and let’s be honest, sometimes overwhelming.
    Whether you're a first-time dog parent or it’s just 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 teach your puppy how to navigate the human world with joy and resilience.

    Every Foundations package includes access to The Dial Method®—a science-backed, human-focused framework that helps you feel confident and clear between sessions. Designed by The Family Dog, this structured video + workbook experience gives you practical tools to support your dog more confidently—right in the middle of real life.


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

  • Growing Up Together (Coming Soon)

    Support that grows with your dog—and with you.

    Puppyhood is just the beginning. As your dog matures, new questions and behaviors will emerge—especially between 6–18 months.
    Growing Up Together will be a continuation path for families who want to stay supported through adolescence and beyond.

    This future add-on may include:

    Behavior check-ins

    Ongoing coaching

    Optional field trips or enrichment sessions

    Priority access to future offerings

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 “this just happened” 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.
