What You’ll Get In 45 Minutes
Here’s what we’ll uncover together in our session:
- Unpack your dog’s challenges. You’ll share what’s been happening, and I’ll listen with an open mind.
- Identify key patterns. We’ll connect the dots between behavior, structure, environment, and handler influence., and I’ll help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
- Define practical next steps. You’ll leave with clear, actionable insights you can use right away.
- Discover your roadmap. If I feel like you and your dog could benefit from deeper work and continued collaboration, I’ll outline options that will fit your goals and timeline.
You’ll walk away feeling grounded, confident, and ready to take the next step for your dog — whether that’s with me or on your own.
Why This Matters
When You and Your Dog Move in Sync, Everything Flows Easier
Most challenges in training or performance aren’t about a single cue or command — they’re about connection and alignment.
This session helps you see the bigger picture: how movement, mindset, and environment work together so both ends of the leash can perform as one.
Who This Consult Is (and Isn’t) For
This session is designed for handlers who:
- Want to understand why their dog behaves or performs a certain way
- Are ready to make thoughtful changes to drive sustainable long-term results
- Value a holistic, evidence-informed approach to canine development
- Care as much about partnership as they do about precision
- Want to strengthen their bond, not just their dog’s obedience
This consult is not for handlers who are:
- Looking for a quick-fix or rigid “one-size-fits-all” methods
- Not open to reflecting on their own role in their dog’s progress

Meet Your Partner In Canine Development
I specialize in providing sport dog handlers with personalized, holistic strategies to maximize their dog’s potential, helping them stay focused and ready to succeed.
I’ve been working with animals since childhood—my first riding lesson was in 1989, and my first job was as a veterinary technician in the mid-90s. My passion for holistic solutions grew from a desire to maximize my well-being, and my dogs’.
Integrative Canine was born in May 2020 after I lost my first working German Shepherd to hemangiosarcoma. His crossing over ignited my commitment to optimizing the potential and well-being of working dogs and their handlers.
“I struggled to find the right food for my two dogs, but Charline and I worked together to determine a raw / kibble combination that works for both my older and younger dogs. She alleviated my anxiety, and pointed me in the right direction!”
