Check It Out Walk | Trainer + Dog Only

Help your dog build confidence and curiosity with a one-on-one training walk designed around real-life experiences — from Halloween decorations to new sounds, smells, and sights.

During this focused walk, your dog and I will explore the neighborhood together, practicing calm observation, choice-based movement, and resilience through novelty. Using positive reinforcement and the “Go Check It Out” cue, I’ll help your dog learn that new or surprising things can be approached with curiosity instead of worry.

Each session is gentle, supportive, and tailored to your dog’s comfort level. You’ll receive a short written summary afterward highlighting what we practiced, how your dog responded, and tips for reinforcing the same skills at home.

This is a great option for dogs who:

• Are sensitive to new or changing environments

• Need extra practice in confidence-building

• Benefit from calm, structured enrichment with a professional trainer

Goal: A more resilient, curious, and connected dog — ready to take on the world (or at least the neighbor’s inflatable skeleton).
