BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION SERIES
For the more challenging, deeper-rooted behaviors, like dog/human reactivity, separation anxiety and low-resiliency (fear), impulsivity control, predation (chasing), and resource guarding, Great Dog offers an in-depth, customized behavior modification program with our certified behavioral consultants. This program is 12 sessions with optional additional single sessions as needed or until the problem is resolved, follow-up or tune-up coaching. This package includes a behavioral modification program outline and functional analysis by an internationally recognized, certified canine behavioral consultant ($250 value) and is charted to gauge techniques each coaching session and evaluate success. Behavior Modification sessions are $140 per session plus tax and can be paid in installments. The first six sessions are once a week and the remaining 6 can be stretched out to every other week. After the initial 12 sessions, additional sessions may be necessary or desired.
