Excited to offer you solutions.
I look forward to serving you through Video Analysis and helping you to solve behavioral or training challenges with you dog.
After 8 years of creating what I call Conscious Canine Community and managing off leash packs of up to 18 dogs during multi-sport wilderness adventures, single-handedly, I can assure you that my expertise, philosophies, and training methods are unmatched. My entire work day requires me to understand dogs as if they were my own species, so reading their embodied communication is a language I’m fluent in.
I may see things you didn’t notice or translate feelings or behaviors your dog has that confused you. Most importantly, so long as your challenge is within the scope of my service, I’ll have plenty of feedback and advice to help you create a happier, more connected, and less frustrating relationship with your furry family member.
As we consider working together, let me introduce myself and my family. I’m Toby Joy, Owner and Adventure Leader of Wild Pup Adventures. These are my 3 foster fails, the loves of my life: Wally Woo-Woo, Pack Leader Raven, and Jonah Meeks.
