 - Worldwide Phone Consultations 
       * Are you from another area? Too distant to have us come to you directly? That's okay! Julie has done THOUSANDS of Phone Consultations and we set these up for success by having you fill out an extensive questionnaire and send any video clips you can to help us assess prior to your Consultation Call via regular line, WhatsApp or Zoom! Then, we spend time discussing the gameplan and homework recommendations and have options, like: written e-mail follow ups and Virtual self-paced courses to help with foundation behaviors as well! Use our Contact Page to get more information about scheduling. 
We usually start off with a brief call going over a few things to ensure this option may benefit you and your pet without need for a more local veterinary behaviorist lesson or class, and then we will setup a Phone Consultation next. From there, we do follow-up calls, video chats, or even Skype lessons.
Typically this program consists of:
* Initial Call - 10-15min to go over program details and get basic information from you. This call is free, but no advice can really be given in such a short time.
* We will then e-mail you a questionnaire and a list of things to do prior to your Phone Consult, like which types of videos and scenarios to take video of based on your needs. Most phones have decent camera recording functions, but i-pads and laptops can work well also. We will likely ask for 3-5 specific types of 2-4minute in length videos, but may request more or varying depending on your goals and concerns. 
* We will e-mail you a PayPal or Square invoice for the time option you elect. Most Initial Phone Consultations take a minimum of 60-90min. Rates are $60/hour, $100 for 2hrs or $160 for 4hrs. Time needed for basic obedience question/concerns are shorter in length; Aggression or Anxiety programs will likely take longer to discuss all of the details and setup the initial homework exercises. Any time leftover from each call can be used for future sessions. We will review your completed questionnaire and videos once your invoice is paid and we set up your date/time for the Phone Consult then as well. We will send an e-mail with all recommendations for videos to send us, information to have handy, as well as how to setup your phone call for the most successful use of the time. 
* Initial Phone Consultation - usually 60-90minutes to discuss your questionnaire concerns, setup program, go over foundations and starter homework exercises. We then follow up with an e-mail with all recommendations, any homework exercises to work on, handouts regarding your program recommendations, and your next list of things to do.
* Follow-up Phone Calls usually occur between 2-4 weeks (like a typical in-person program). These are all based on time. Same rates as listed above. Same rollover if time is not used.
* Skype or Video Chats can occur next if you'd like, or we continue phone consultations until goals can be met. These fees vary between $75-90, depending on media and day/time needed.
* Homework is provided after the Initial Consultation call via e-mail. We also provide links, handouts, and any supplement recommendations at this time as well. Follow-up session homework can be requested for $15 per session. 
* Please keep in mind that you will likely need access to a camera device for recording a few things (even if just a capable phone or computer webcam).
* This program does not always replace the benefit of in-person sessions, however, can be very effective for many students. If we feel your case needs more than what we can help you with, we WILL refer you to other sources and options. Most of our students who elect this option do so because they have some difficulty scheduling in-person sessions right away. Sometimes, this option is best for people with PTSD and/or anxiety disorders as well because it removes the "in person" fears and can give the information needed to succeed in the goals. With the recommendations we follow up with, many have had great successes moving forward in their programs right away instead of waiting. This can be an ideal option for many issues, but some aggression and anxiety cases may warrant in-person sessions.
    ***Long Distance Phone/Video Chat New Student Package includes: Initial Call to setup, Initial 90min Phone Consultation, TWO Follow-up Video Chats, Written Homework for all three sessions, and THREE video instructionals for two of your choice cues. Package fee: $325 (savings of $65).
