I’ll personally review your inquiry and reach out within 24 hours to have a conversation about your puppy, your goals and answer any questions you have about working together
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
A. You’re a new puppy owner
You have a new puppy, and you’ve been consistently training them, but you’re feeling overwhelmed
You went from living a relatively normal and calm life to having everything change, and it’s been a total shock
You feel like the parent of a newborn with the sleep exhaustion and complete lack of peace during the day, and you find yourself overwhelmed with their constant biting, jumping up, and ripping of clothes
You love them to death, but you’re feeling so exhausted, and defeated, which is the opposite of what you envisioned when you decided to get a puppy
You want your puppy to be able to calmly settle and snuggle next to you while you watch a show/movie, and calmly coexist with you, instead of you having to be constantly paranoid about what kind of mischief they’re get themselves into
You want them to be able to independently play with their own toys while you work, or cook dinner, or hang out with friends
First and foremost, you want them to stop biting, and chill, so that you aren’t as stressed, but also, you want them to be the little adventure buddy that you can take to the dog friendly restaurant or on hikes, when the weather is nice, and be confident that they will be calm and well behaved
B. You are about to bring a new puppy home
You know when you're bringing your puppy home, you're counting down the days, you're SO excited BUT also (understandably) a little bit nervous
You've been around dogs in the past with behavioral concerns and you want to do everything you can to avoid that with your puppy
You are highly motivated to train them well from the start
You went into getting a puppy with the mindset of "I'm either getting them willing to take the time, energy, and effort into training them well, or I'm simply not getting them"
You're already doing your research
but there’s SO much information out there, that leaves you confused on where to start
You want to do your best to limit (or prevent) the stressful behaviors that everybody talks about right off the bat, like the biting, chewing, barking, etc
You’re willing to put in the work but you want to save yourself time and stress, by eliminating the guess work, and having a professional and expert guide you and support you in welcoming your new puppy into your life, while making sure you still have time for you, AND in training them to be the best friend and companion that you’ve always hoped for
This is for you when you’re ready to train your puppy to be the confident, well behaved, best friend and companion that you imagined when you decided to get a puppy, AND you're willing to do what it takes to get there
You're willing to put in the work and be consistent but you also want to make sure that the work you're putting in is effective work. That it is helping you see progress daily, and not leaving you frustrated
You value your time, and training your dog well from the start. You want to get ahead of unwanted behaviors, lay a strong foundation from the beginning, and do everything you can to prevent future problems with your puppy that you have experienced with others dogs, whether its friends or family
You've seen things like leash reactivity, jumping and chaos when guests come over, it being a headache to even take your dog to the vet because of the jumping, and barking, and you want to do everything you can to avoid those things with your puppy from the beginning
You're willing to do whatever it takes, but you don't want guess work
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY:
"Within a week of implementing this plan we saw improvements, and after being consistent for several weeks it felt like we owned a different dog! She is now 5 months old and blends into our lives so well."
"My husband and I came to Brittany with our 3 month old Chocolate Lab puppy in desperate need of help. We loved our puppy so much, but she was driving us crazy on so many levels and causing us more stress than happiness; which is not what we envisioned for ourselves when we got her. After getting a detailed idea of our lives and goals, she made a plan for us that was doable and tackled the many problems we were facing with our puppy. Within a week of implementing this plan we saw improvements, and after being consistent for several weeks it felt like we owned a different dog! She is now 5 months old and blends into our lives so well. We are genuinely enjoying our time with her, and we really did not know if we would get there before working with Brittany.
Brittany’s knowledge, patience, and responsiveness set her apart from other trainers that may have you buy a few sessions with them and that’s all they do. Brittany has truly been a partner with us in parenting our puppy and her support and direction has been life changing for us. We really do not know what we would do without her, and we are so happy and excited to have her on our team as we continue to meet the goals we have for our puppy as she continues to grow up!"
Madeline & "Cookie" - Nashville, TN
"Within two weeks, our pup was behaving better and we'd gotten rid of all the puppy pain points (chewing, play biting, whining in the crate, potty training) almost entirely."
"In only a matter of days, we were able to get Elliot to take naps in his crate for several hours and eliminate his puppy biting."
"We joined Brittany's program about a week after we brought our puppy home. We wanted to have a dog that would be a member of our family and that we could enjoy and bring everywhere without wondering if he was going to behave or not. Brittany was responsive from the get go and always gave us personalized treatment despite having many clients. Within two weeks, our pup was behaving better and we'd gotten rid of all the puppy pain points (chewing, play biting, whining in the crate, potty training) almost entirely."
-Brenda & "Alex" (Miami, USA)
"I got my 9-week-old Cavalier puppy during my second year of law school. I grew up with two large dogs, so I thought I knew what to expect when I picked up my puppy. I realized that was not the case three days after bringing him home. I was overwhelmed with school and a brand-new puppy.
After a day or two, I realized I was in over my head and needed help. On Elliot’s third day home, I contacted Brittany. Being in school, I needed a trainer who could accommodate my schedule and someone I could communicate with consistently on my puppy’s training. I also wanted a trainer who used positive, reward-based training methods that focused on correcting the underlying issue instead of trying to get a “quick fix.” Brittany checked all these boxes and more. Within a few days of reaching out to Brittany, she pulled together a schedule for Elliot and me to follow by incorporating my class schedule with his needs and training. In only a matter of days, we were able to get Elliot to take naps in his crate for several hours and eliminate his puppy biting. In addition, within a couple of weeks, my puppy could play with his toys and keep himself entertained while I completed schoolwork. With Brittany’s help, I could return to my studies schedule seamlessly. Within this short time frame, the painful parts of puppyhood were behind us, and I could enjoy hanging out with my puppy while watching a movie or completing work.
After accomplishing these goals, we could focus on other training items, such as leash training and other commands. At less than five months old, I could confidently take Elliot on a walk without any pulling and bring him with me in public. I am constantly being complimented on how well-behaved he is. With Brittany’s help, I have quickly achieved the days that I fantasized about when I pictured having a puppy in my life. Brittany has been there to support Elliot and me every step of the process and is there to answer any questions I have. To anyone on the fence, I HIGHLY recommend working with Brittany."
-Claire & "Elliot" (Dallas, TX)

"Becoming a first time single puppy parent was a lot and overwhelming. Brittany helps by giving a detailed schedule (based on your needs) to help make you and your puppy’s schedule seamless. I have even reached out a day before or the same day to ask how to adjust the schedule because something came up. She even helps with non-training related questions / first time puppy parent questions.
"Prior to getting my puppy at 8-weeks old, I researched tons of training tips online knowing I wanted to train my puppy to fit seamless into my life. I had actually come across some of Brittany’s videos in the process. I, like many other people, assumed I didn’t need a trainer because I was going to be the only one taking care of her and thought if there wasn’t any “rough” play she would never bite or start any unfavorable habits. However, I couldn’t be more wrong. After a few days of having my puppy, she turned into a complete land shark. I had tons of holes and rips in all my clothing and tons of battle wounds. After trying training tips I found online for two weeks and it not getting any better, I decided to invest in Brittany’s training course. I chose hers over your “traditional” dog trainer for many reasons.
Here are some of my top reasons: Brittany is all about positive reinforcement (I wanted to keep an amazing relationship with my puppy, I didn’t want her to be afraid of me), she can make a detailed schedule for you and your puppy(I have never heard of any trainer doing this - being a type A, schedule oriented person this alone sounded like a dream), she responds within 24hrs of texting her questions any day of the week (honestly I don’t think she ever even took that long to respond, it was always super quick), it’s virtual (I liked this because my puppy would be trained by me through guidance and my puppy wouldn’t be able to “put on a show” with no trainer physically present), there aren’t a set amount of sessions (where you need to purchase more when you run out) and best of all I have her as along as I have my puppy (this is a game changer especially since life changes so often and things happen - I can always text her whenever I have any questions).
Also, I have to mention the support she gives. This was my first puppy on my own. Becoming a first time single puppy parent was a lot and overwhelming. Brittany helps by giving a detailed schedule (based on your needs) to help make you and your puppy’s schedule seamless. I have even reached out a day before or the same day to ask how to adjust the schedule because something came up. She even helps with non-training related questions / first time puppy parent questions.
We did have an unexpected GI issue which prompted my vet to change my puppy’s food (going from dry kibble to dry kibble AND wet food) in addition to adding a couple medications in. The vet only gave me what much to fed my puppy per day but she was eating 3x day. Between the food change and the medication, I was completely overwhelmed and reached out to Brittany. She gave me a breakdown of how to split her meals using the new food. I don’t think many trainers would even entertain the idea of helping with anything other than “training” specific questions.
I can understand people thinking the cost is high, but for what you get it’s totally worth it. Especially, comparing to the hourly rates most trainers charge. I now have access to Brittany for years! My only regret is not starting with her before getting my puppy. In the future when I get another puppy, I will be using Brittany PRIOR to pickup"

HOW DO WE ACTUALLY GET YOU THERE:
I walk my clients through what I call my 3 phase success pathway
And each part of this is customized to you, your puppy, and your schedule
PHASE ONE
Phase 1 is all about working through the behaviors that are causing you the most stress
In this phase your puppy will learn to:
-
stop biting
-
stop chewing
-
stop jumping
-
stop barking, etc (or whatever is the most overwhelming behavior for you)
This is where you’ll see them bite less, and be calm more. You’ll be able to work, watch a show or movie, cook dinner, with them independently playing with their own toys, or relaxing
You’ll be able to peacefully coexist with them, without every moment being consumed by the biting, or barking. They’ll be able to be calm with you, AND play with you without any biting
We eliminate everything that you don’t need to teach your puppy to stop biting, barking, etc, narrow our focus, and simplify it, until you’re feeling happy in your days with them and not stressed
I take a root cause approach to not only teach your puppy to stop engaging in the behavior, but to train them in a way that the behavior won't resurface later OR turn into another unwanted behavior (basically, we ensure you'll see progress that lasts, and not feel like you're taking one steps forward to take two steps back)
PHASE TWO
This is where we start working on command training, leash skills, and teaching your puppy to have self control and be calm, whether you’re at home, or on walks
Your puppy will:
-
Be confident with basic commands (the commands we teach will look different for your puppy, and the things you want to work on)
-
Have self control on leash, and be able to walk calmly, without pulling, or barking at dogs/people they see
-
Greet your guests calmly, without any jumping, barking or nipping
PHASE THREE
This is where we really focus on working on self control and calm behavior in distracting environments
You'll be able to take your puppy to the dog friendly restaurants, breweries, to the beach, on hikes, and have this incredible companion that you can do things with, and be confident in, whether you're hanging out at home and having a chill day, or going out to your favorite outdoor restaurant on a nice day
WHAT YOU GET AS A CLIENT:
1. A personalized and customized training plan & schedule, that we adjust and evolve as we progress through training
The reality is, if your biggest concern right now is your puppy’s biting, there’s a lot of stuff you may think you need to do that isn’t necessary and is just adding more stress to your plate. Things that may not be necessary for your puppy and are delaying you from seeing progress
Think about it like this- you’re driving somewhere new, and you open the GPS and it says “which route do you want - the fastest, or longest?”
We want the fastest. We don’t want the extra turns, extra miles. We want to take the exits, the turns, follow the directions that’s going to get us there in the fastest way possible
After speaking with you, learning about the behaviors you're wanting to work on, watching your puppy in depth, I'll create a personalized plan for you, with ONLY what you actually need to focus on, so that you can see progress 10x faster, and in a way that is SO much less stressful
On top of that, it is important that you can be consistent with training your puppy, and it can feel hard to know when to do what, while still saving time for YOU. A lot of people stop doing things that were important to them when getting a puppy, things like going to their workout classes, going to the gym, but then, they feel depleted and it makes them feel 10x more overwhelmed than they need to
So I’ll not only guide you on WHAT to do, I’ll customize it to your schedule and build a customized plan for you, and be here to help you adjust as we progress through training.
2. 7 day per week messaging support with me directly
You have access to text me 7 days per week, with any questions. No waiting for a next session, or a Monday to ask a question and feeling stuck. We can work through it in real time, which allows you to see progress 10x faster.
If you were to have a session scheduled for Friday, but had a question come up Monday. Guess what? We can adjust Monday so that by Friday you’re already seeing progress, vs you being in the same place on Friday, feeling stuck
There’s no waiting
3. Unlimited 1:1 training calls booked on demand
4. Lifetime Guarantee
You have access to me and my training, for as long as you own your puppy.
Dog’s are a lifetime commitment and they go through phases just like humans. You’ll have somebody who knows you, your puppy, to support you through every phase of you and your puppy’s life together.
You have everything you need to set you and your puppy for a lifetime of success together for a one time investment of : $2,997 USD
extended payment plans available via Affirm or Klarna
I’ll personally review your inquiry and reach out within 24 hours to have a conversation about your puppy, your goals and answer any questions you have about working together
FAQ'S
1. How does online puppy training work? Watch this video to find out
2. Do you offer payment plans?
I offer payment plans through third party's- Klarna, or Affirm. You must be approved by them upon investing into this service, but they allow you to split the payment up to 36 months!
3. What if it doesn't work?
Here's the thing- you have unlimited access to me, and you're not capped to any number of sessions or support. So first off, everything is going to be customized to you, your schedule, your puppy, and we will be chatting consistently (you have access to text me daily) to make sure you're seeing progress. BUT puppy's aren't robots, and some may take longer to pick up on things than others. However IF you're not seeing progress, the magic about having unlimited support, is that we adjust. You're never going to be told "you have to invest in more sessions". We simply adjust and move at you and your puppy's pace until you're where you want to be.
