Behavioural Consultations
$160-$199 +HST
Because every dog's journey is different, pricing is a range based on behaviour and history.
Every dog and every relationship looks a little different, and that's exactly why we offer Behavioural Consultations. Whether you're facing a specific behaviour challenge, feeling unsure where to start, or simply want some guidance before diving into training, this is a judgment-free space to talk it through. Consultations also equip you with the skills to start some training at home, supported by our digital resources.
You'll meet one-on-one with an Instinct Canine Training trainer who will get to know you and your dog before helping you build a custom plan around your goals. No question is too small and no situation is too complicated. We've likely seen it before, and we're here to help! Reach out today, and we’ll teach you how to truly connect with your dog in a way that goes beyond just obedience.
All behavioural consultations take place at our Burlington training facility.

Your private consultation runs for 60 minutes and is completely tailored to you and your dog. During this session, we’ll discuss your goals, get to know you and your dog, introduce a few foundational skills or address behavioural concerns, and create a personalized training plan to help you achieve them. This consultation is your first step toward a stronger bond and a well-behaved companion for life.

We are almost fully booked till the end of the year! Please reach out to check availability.
Is A Consultation Right for You?
A Behavioural Consultation is a great starting point if you're not sure what your dog needs yet, if scheduling makes group classes tough, or if you want a custom plan before committing to a full program.
If you already know your dog needs ongoing 1:1 obedience work, our Private Obedience course may be the better fit. And if your dog struggles with reactivity, our Reactive Rover course is designed specifically for that. Not sure which is right? That's exactly what a consultation is for. We'll help you figure it out.

What Our Clients Say
Approx. 3 months ago my wife and I adopted a 4 year old King Shepard/Husky who was in need of a new home. Although friendly towards our family he was extremely reactive towards other people and animals on our daily walks. Being a very large dog it was most challenging to control him. My wife was very anxious on the walks and I became concerned that I might sustain an injury as a result of the constant pulling on the leash that followed these encounters.
We knew we needed help and after some research turned to Anna Marie Stewart at Instinct Canine Training. Almost immediately we noticed a wonderful change in our dog's behaviour during his walks.
My wife says Anna Marie is a "Miracle Worker". Her understanding of the canine mind and her patience in dealing with both the animal and their owners is evident. She brings a real enthusiasm and joy and you know she cares deeply about her training. We would both highly recommend Anna Marie at Instinct Canine Training.
