Coaching, Courses & Community
Designed for Dog Professionals
How many of us have seen a rise in behavior issues coming through our doors over the past several years? Most clients come to us for help with anxiety, leash reactivity, and aggression, and fewer dogs simply need basic training. That’s where I come in.

How many of us have seen a rise in behavior issues coming through our doors over the past several years? Most clients come to us for help with anxiety, leash reactivity, and aggression, and fewer dogs simply need basic training. That’s where I come in.
There’s nothing I love more than helping other trainers succeed.
My courses, community, and coaching are open to any trainer, regardless of skill level. If you’re looking to learn, to get support, and to deep dive into the nuances of dog behavior and training, you’re in the right place. I look forward to connecting!
Warmly,
Jessica Wheatcraft

Community
The Collective Wisdom Dog Training Community
I run an online community for dog trainers that offers a safe place to collaborate and learn. The Collective Wisdom Dog Training Community is designed for dog professionals (trainers, behavior consultants, dog walkers, or shelter staff). It’s a place where you can receive support with your cases and the opportunity to learn more about dog behavior and training through the lens of real case studies, expert presenters, and the collective wisdom from colleagues.
Personal Coaching
Work one on one with me
I coach trainers through a variety of challenges – whether you have a case that you are in over your head on, a sticky client issue, or questions related to dog training and behavior, I’m here to help.
WORKING WITH COMPLEX CASES
Working with complex behavior cases is not a straight forward process, and I’m here to help. As a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CDBC) I routinely work with leash reactivity, dog to human aggression, dog to dog aggression, resource guarding, hyper arousal, and shy/fearful dogs.
ONE SIZE DOESN’T FIT ALL…
I strive to understand each individual dog and person that I work with. In doing so, I often think outside of the box to find the most effective, practical, and humane training solutions.

About Me
My love affair with dogs began as a child – I wanted nothing more than to be around them all day and tried to convince my parents for years that we needed more than two dogs… they said no, of course.
When I was in high school, I began volunteering for a local shelter, and it was there that I discovered my heart was drawn to helping dogs in any way I could. Shortly after high school, I volunteered for the Prison Pup Program at the California Institute for Women, an organization that helped inmates train service dogs. Volunteers like myself would take the dogs in our homes for the weekend to help generalize their training to the real world to prepare them for placement.
I help trainers with:
Structuring Services
Client Communication
Increase client cooperation for successful outcomes
Behavior Consulting
Skill Building
