🐾 Cooperative Care Training

Helping your dog feel safe, confident, and willing during handling, grooming, and veterinary care.

Cooperative care training teaches your dog to actively participate in their care using positive reinforcement and consent-based training. Instead of force or restraint, your dog learns that handling is predictable, safe, and even rewarding.

✨ Ideal For:

Dogs who are fearful or sensitive to touch

• Puppies learning early handling skills

• Dogs who struggle at the vet or groomer

• Dogs needing ongoing medical care

• Owners who want a low-stress, fear-free approach

🧠 What We Can Work On:

• Nail trims (fear-free training)

• Ear cleaning and medication

• Eye drops and oral medications

• Grooming (brushing, bathing, handling)

• Veterinary exam preparation

• Injection prep (vet visits or at-home care)

• Muzzle training (positive introduction)

• Body handling and desensitization

🎓 Training Approach:

• Positive reinforcement–based methods

• Step-by-step desensitization & counterconditioning

• Consent-based training (your dog learns to opt in)

• Focus on emotional well-being—not just compliance

• Customized plans based on your dog’s comfort level

💼 Session Options & Pricing
