Cast Guidance
$265
A supported starting point for understanding your dog…and what comes next.
Maybe you brought home a puppy and nothing is going the way you expected.
Maybe your dog has started reacting to strangers or other dogs and you’ve found yourself rearranging your life around it - avoiding certain streets, skipping gatherings, staying home.
Maybe there’s behavior you can’t explain and can’t ignore, and the gap between the dog you have and the life you were hoping to share with them keeps getting wider.
If you’re overwhelmed, frustrated, or just not sure where to start - this is where to start.
Guidance is a consultation plus a short-term coaching plan designed to help you make sense of what's happening, identify where things are actually breaking down, and build a clear, humane path forward. Rather than guessing which class or program is right, we slow down long enough to look at what your dog is communicating, what's getting in the way, and what kind of support will actually help.
Some families use Guidance to refine management and move forward independently. Others use it as a bridge into group programs or ongoing support. Either way, it's designed to give you clarity — not lock you into anything.
Guidance includes a comprehensive consultation to understand your dog, your goals, and your current challenges, followed by a clear, practical plan tailored to your household and capacity. It's intentionally time-bound — the goal is clarity and momentum, not dependence.
At the end of Guidance, we'll decide together what makes sense next — whether that's targeted skillbuilding, ongoing welfare and behavior modification, Skill Tree, group classes, or simply closing the loop with a solid plan and the confidence to move forward on your own.

You need one thing handled, and you need it handled now. Advantage is a focused, one-month video coaching container built around a single behavior goal — for the household that doesn't need a full plan, just a clear path through one specific problem.
For the dog whose challenges run deeper than a quick fix — and the owner who knows they're in this for the long haul. Wayfinder is an ongoing private ecosystem combining coaching, coursework, and tailored guidance for teams navigating complex behavior, building real skills, and investing in a relationship that's worth the work.
Not every dog needs a behavior plan. Some dogs just need consistent enrichment, meaningful practice, and an owner who keeps showing up. Skill Tree is a rotating group membership for the teams who want to keep growing together — because the relationship doesn't stop being worth tending just because the crisis is over.
All private work begins with Guidance.
This ensures we start with shared understanding, clear priorities, and a plan that actually fits your dog and your life. This is a great place to start to get a taste of virtual training and identify the best next steps for you - whether that’s one-on-one coaching, group classes, or self-led resources.
Sometimes you don't need a long-term plan. You need this one thing handled.
Advantage is a one-month, one-on-one video coaching container built around a single behavior goal — the thing that's making daily life harder than it needs to be. Think:
a new puppy owner who needs structure and a clear starting point, not a crisis.
a dog who:
counter surfs,
plays keepaway, or
greets guests like a small disaster.
One focus, direct support, and a month to make real progress on it.
This works best when the issue is what it looks like. If it turns out there's more going on underneath — and sometimes there is — you'll get honest recommendations about what kind of support would actually serve your dog best.
Advantage includes weekly assignments and plan adjustments, video coaching and feedback throughout the week, customized support and resources, and a live call at the end of the month to close out and determine next steps.
