Pre-Adoption Counseling

Thinking of getting a dog? During a Pre-Adoption Counseling session, we can answer your questions regarding:

  • Which breeds or mixes are most compatible with your lifestyle & experience

  • Where to find your new best friend and what to expect at shelters, breeders, or rescues

  • What to look for and what are "red flags" in a dog

  • Integrating a new dog into your existing "pack"

  • Bringing your new dog home and how to make the transitional period less stressful

  • How to get started training and preventing behavior problems, and what to do if your new dog develops a behavior problem.

We can also accompany you to local animal shelters or breeders to help you pick out your new best friend. If you are interested in a particular dog, we can evaluate the dog and determine if the dog would likely be a safe, friendly, compatible companion for you and your family.

  • Pre-adoption counseling session: $85.00 per session (1 hour)

  • Pre-adoption behavioral assessment: $100.00

Cancellation Policy

Your success is important to us at Pawsitive Fit.  To help you succeed, we have planned and blocked a session time specifically for you and/or your dog. Because of this, if your plans should change and you’re unable to keep a scheduled session, please contact us as soon as possible so we may be able to utilize that time elsewhere. If you’re able to contact us 24 or more hours in advance for private sessions, we’ll be happy to reschedule your session without any cancellation fee. However, if you must cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled private session or do not notify us of your inability to attend, we regret that we will be unable to reschedule or refund that session without additional costs.
