"Jack has now been home for 3 weeks now, the longest since August.  He has been doing AWESOME!!  He has only had a few anxious episodes but the difference now is we have the knowledge we need to hlep him through them and they only last as long as the stimulus present! Jack is a much happier and more engaged dog! My husband even took him to the vet the other day to get a nail trim and the vet even commented on his changed demeanor apologized for basically suggesting that we put Jack to sleep.    Kelley was available to us anytime via email, phone calls an texting and even offered us discounted sessions and matierals to borrow.  She is patient knowledgeable and compassionate and we knew she really wanted to help Jack!!  Overall we are just so grateful to Kelley for being there to help us along our path, she was our last hope and we thank God everyday that we found her!"

-Ashley & Brian W. (Jack)

 

"Kelley did a fantastic job helping us out with some issues with our dog
Sadie.  From the moment she arrived, we were very comfortable and
confident she was going to be able to help us. Kelley was very professional and knowledgeable about what needed to be done, and Sadie responded to her in no time.  The techniques she showed us have made a huge change in Sadie...and how we work with her to overcome her barking and anxiety.  If your looking for someone to work with your dog(s) look no further!"

-Lesa M.  (Sadie)

"Dear Kelley, and I do mean dear!  What a change in our two schnauzers!! Who would have thought two year old dogs would be so active? We can't thank you enough for helping us move Katie and Hannah into a calmer life. Both we and the dogs really enjoy our Sunday morning walks with other dogs and their owners.  The dogs have found have found some dog friends that love to play in our area. In addition we are making good progress with the barking and them going after other dogs. Your suggestion and training for both the dogs and us are certainly working!  And who would have believed Katie would learn how to play with toys! You have certainly helped us a great deal and we wouldn't have gotten this far without you!  Thank you Kelley.

-Cindy & Roger K. (Hannah & Katie)

"Just wanted to give you an update on Hallie since our session on Wednesday. Hallie is doing great with "leave-it" and I feel so much more confident with her listening to me!  On our walks she is also doing great!  Last night I heard a group of people comment on how she sat at a crosswalk before crossing the street...they were very surprised and amazed!  She did encounter two dogs since our session.  One of them was outside and she paid attnention to me before she could react so that was great!  The other dog was coming out of an elevator and she reared up and then almost before I could say anything she stopped and turned around to look at me.  It was fantastic!  We will keep working on it! See you at the pack walk on Sunday at the PACK WALK!

-Christina W. (Hallie)

 

 

PAWfect Pet Services specializes in behavior modification solutions for your pets' behavior issues.  Designing customized behavior modification plans for your specific household situation, because every person/pet relationship is different.  The behavior modification plans incorporate changes to daily routines, dog training techniques and environmental changes while using pet friendly training methods to enhance and strengthen your relationship with your pets.

Behavior problems include jumping, barking, chewing, digging, spraying, marking, housetraining, socializing and play behaviors. Complex behaviors include what are often defined types of aggression, anxieties, fears, separation anxiety, attachment problems, phobias, and sibling rivalry.

These behaviors require a consultation and assessment that includes a behavioral history, observations and a behavior modification plan.  And because every situation is different some may need only one session, and others may need mulitple sessions to modify the behaviors completely. 

Behavior modification plans involve shaping behaviors, this does involve obedience training techniques but differ from training classes while they include realistic changes to your daily routines and to your pets' environment.  We will focus on creating healthy boundaries, mastering the walk, implementing training techniques when necessary and create a less stressed, more balanced home environment for you and your pets.

Animals are different from humans and this difference creates challenges in training and solving problems. My focus is to help you solve the problems  you are having with your animals, without jeopardizing your relationship with your pets. Understanding what your pet is trying to tell you is key in solving or preventing problems and conflicts between pets and humans.

Owner relinquishment because of behavior problems is a growing trend and lack of training and behavior issues are the leading cause to re-homing pets, relinquishments to shelters, and the worst possible outcomes, euthanasia.  My goal is to help you keep your animals for their long and happy life, and to balance your home environment so that you can live a more peaceful and positive existence together!

Some behaviors only need one session, more serious behaviors may need multiple sessions.

FOLLOW UP PHONE CALL/EMAIL (INCLUDED)

Included in your consultation is a follow up phone call and/or email to see how things are going after our consultation.  Any revisions to our plan will be discussed at this time, along with encouragment and reflection about how things have changed for you and your pet!
