Private Dog Behavior Consultations
Private Dog Behavior
Consultations
When your dog is struggling with behavior challenges, a group class isn’t always the best place to start.
At No Monkey Business Dog Training, we offer private dog behavior consultations designed to address your dog’s unique needs through individualized coaching, behavior assessment, and practical training solutions. Consultations are available at our Concord facility, in select public locations, or remotely via Zoom or phone.
Whether you’re dealing with aggression, reactivity, anxiety, or everyday training frustrations, we’ll work together to develop a plan that fits your dog, your family, and your lifestyle.
Not sure whether you need a class or a private consultation?
Contact us and we’ll help you determine the best starting point for your dog.
Personalized Support for Complex Behavior Challenges
Private consultations provide dedicated one-on-one attention and are often the most effective option when a behavior concern requires a deeper evaluation and customized behavior modification plan.
In many cases, we don’t need to see the behavior happen in real time to help. Videos of your dog’s environment, routines, or interactions can often provide valuable insight while allowing for greater scheduling flexibility and convenience.
What to Expect
Most consultations are 30 minutes long (unless conducted in-home). This allows us to focus on clear, actionable recommendations without overwhelming you or your dog. Additional time can be scheduled whenever needed.
Every consultation is customized. No two dogs—and no two training plans—are exactly alike.
With decades of experience, Helen St. Pierre specializes in helping families navigate challenging behavior concerns, including aggression, fear, anxiety, reactivity, and other complex behavior issues.

Which Consultation is best?
Talking to us personally is the best way to decide what service NMBDT offers that would fit you and your dog best. There are no extra fees for multiple dogs, and every consult includes written notes and/or handouts specific to your case, as well as email and phone call follow-up support. It is sometimes recommended to schedule multiple consultations to ensure you and your dog are doing well and usually these are needed for more complex cases.
