CONSULTATIONS

The Educated Pet® offers behavior consultations for both dogs and cats.
Millions of pets are relinquished every year because of quite solvable behavior problems. Unfortunately, many owners don't know where to turn for help. At The Educated Pet®, we work to keep these animals in their homes with happy owners. We are the people to turn to for help to solve the majority of the issues you may encounter with your pet.
We will work with you to solve many common, (and some not so common) behavior problems. We will help you when your dog is destructive or constantly escaping, we will aid in correcting excessive barking and over-reactive behavior, and we will supply you with the skills to instill confidence in your fearful dog. Many of our clients come to us for help in resolving aggression issues with their dogs. We work with both aggression directed toward people and aggression between dogs.
Our expert staff is also available to assist with feline behavior issues such as urine-marking or inappropriate elimination. We also work with over-reactive and fearful cats.
Our goal when working with you and your pet is to create a relationship of respect, understanding, and trust between you and your furry family member.
During a typical behavior consultation, we spend two to three hours with you at the initial visit. At this time we take a thorough behavior history of your pet and the problems that you are facing. We spend time evaluating your pet and determining the best course of treatment for your unique situation. We take time to explain our findings to you and to train you in the techniques you will be using. We provide you with written material to support the information that we give you. We take notes for you, and provide you with a record of what we said at the consultation. Before we leave you on this first visit, we make sure that you fully understand what your next steps need to be.
After your initial consultation, we are available for brief telephone clarification calls to answer any questions that you may have and we offer follow-up visits as needed.
Consultations can be held either in your home or at our easy to access office in North Park.
