THOUGHTFUL

FOR YOU AND YOUR DOG

WITH JULIE FORBES AND DARCIE BOLTZ

DOG BEHAVIOR EXPERTS. INDUSTRY LEADERS. COMPASSIONATE GUIDES.

You’ll find our approach balanced, calm, refreshing, intuitive, and (perhaps best of all) effective. Our working style is fun, respectful, and sensitive to each individual–human and dog! We know that clear boundaries and appropriate expectations, built on a foundation of fun, love, and respect, will help your dog be the best version of him or herself.

The three most fundamental components of your dog are his or her biology, environment, and psychology. We look at each client through a full-spectrum lens. Nutrition, stress, medical issues, learning differences, and genetics are all factors that can impact your dog’s behavior–and we look at them all, always.

Our holistic approach to working with dogs can resolve some of the most challenging and puzzling behaviors. Thirty years of combined professional experience with dogs in addition to our vast network of local and national colleagues, equips us to help even the most complicated dogs, and their humans, achieve an improved quality of life. We specialize in helping dogs with challenges such as disrespectful behavior/manners, leash-walking, coming when called, anxiety, phobias, PTSD, compulsive behaviors, aggression, health-related behavioral challenges, and genetically-initiated temperament instability.
