The training your dog sends YOU to.
Evidence-based skills and compassionate support can help struggling dog owners cope with challenges related to:
- Living with reactivity or aggression
- Dog / owner relationship challenges
- Handler confidence building
- Training methods & process
- Family and social dynamics
- Owner mindset & emotion regulation
- Decisions about rehoming or behavioral euthanasia
- ... and so much more!
Clients come to trainers for help with dog behavior... but there is frequently much more that comes to the surface once they begin the work. Trainers are then tasked with both addressing the dog and with navigating the beautiful, but often complex and challenging, dog/human dynamic. Work with Jess 1:1 to address:
- Healing and preventing burnout
- Navigating client interpersonal challenges
- Trainer work/life balance
- Imposter syndrome and confidence
- Coping and mindset strategies
- Communicating with clients
- Managing recommendations about BE and rehoming, etc.
- ... and so much more!
Because dog people need training too.

"I highly recommend this program. When my partner and I signed up, I was almost ready to give up. I can say I wouldn't be where I am today without the skills and support I found."
Kelli + Cosmo
"H&H helped me change the way I think about our training journey. My thought patterns were making it so hard to continue on with training. Now, I can think more clearly about training and not be as afraid to continue. Even if things might not go as I would hope, I am able to recover from it more easily."
Lisa + Patches
"This is the best thing you can do for you and for your dog. I have become much more aware and patient with my dogs and myself. We are much more calm and take things day by day. I am more aware of MY emotions and not letting them influence my pets."
