“You do not rise to the level of your goals.
You fall to the level of your structure. ”
At Dogs by Foster, we specialize in bona fide Canine Behavior Solutions. We understand that each dog is unique and deserving of a personalized approach and plan to address their specific needs and behavioral challenges. Our commitment to effective, real-life solutions is grounded in a deep understanding of people, canine learning, and behavior, ensuring we provide effective solutions that are sustainable over time.
We honor and understand the bond between you and your dog and strive to strengthen that connection through humane methods that allow dogs agency and choice. In an unregulated industry, we pride ourselves on maintaining professional certification and ongoing education to provide our clients with the most advanced understanding and methods available. Ashley Foster, our highly experienced (30+ years) certified behavior consultant, focuses on positive reinforcement and evidence-based practices, fostering an environment where the dog and owner feel safe and understood.
With over 30 years of experience in canine behavior consulting, we have honed a comprehensive, customized system built upon consistency, commitment, and community. Our exclusive system educates and empowers dog owners to meet their dogs where they are, address their core needs, and effectively solve their pets' behavioral challenges with sustainable plans that can lead to long-lasting results.
We prioritize communication and collaboration with you, ensuring that your insights and experiences play a vital role in crafting a tailored plan. By blending expertise with empathy, we guide you on your dog’s behavior modification journey. Additionally, we offer opportunities to cultivate a community that provides a nurturing environment where knowledge and shared experiences enhance your journey with your dog.

Introducing Our Exclusive Canine Behavior Solution System:
To Get Started…
We start with a 90 + minute initial consultation (Available in-person in Fort Collins, CO, Laramie, WY, or Virtually Worldwide) with Ashley Foster. This session aims to get to know you and your dog’s behavior challenges and develop your customized behavior solution plan. In this session, I will provide:
A thorough intake in which I obtain your dog's history, outlining their behavior challenges, understanding how their behavior impacts you, and other details to help paint the picture of your life with your dog(s).
Evaluation of their behavior challenges and identification of the behaviors' underlying function (cause).
A prognosis to provide an honest assessment of possible outcomes for your dog and your family.
Owner Education to help you understand your dog and their behavior.
Foundational behavior solution exercises and protocols.
A Forecast of your dog's behavior modification journey and the time and resources required to support your dog's progress.
Answers to your questions about your dog, their behavior, and our system.
A Month At A Time

A Month At A Time -
The Next Step
You commit and schedule your A Month At A Time exclusive behavior solution system to give you and your dog the time and commitment they need and deserve to experience true behavior change.
The most recent understanding is that it takes humans minimally 21 days to change a habit, most commonly taking at least 66 days. Therefore, when it comes to implementing bona fide behavior change in a dog, requiring both dog and human engagement, we have found that committing to consistent coaching, communication, and feedback provides a clear path to the time and resources necessary to help you help your dog. Your dog’s behavior concerns have likely been brewing for some time; therefore, it will take time to resolve them.
In our innovative monthly commitment system, I take on a limited number of clients each month to ensure you and your dog receive ongoing support to keep your behavior modification plan in a constant state of review, evaluation, feedback, and progression. Our system assists you in maintaining accountability and consistency and provides ongoing coaching and communication to ensure you are guided and supported in the process.
When you work with us, you are working with a private coach who will guide you on the path of behavior change—every step of the way.
When you commit to our A Month At A Time Solution System, you receive 31 days of ongoing support, which includes:
Two follow-up consultation/coaching sessions (in-person in Fort Collins/Loveland, CO or Laramie, WY, virtual worldwide) - Scheduled every other week
Written behavior plans.
Ongoing email support M-F
Bimonthly email check-in and video review - Scheduled every other week on non-consultation weeks.
Access to online tracking and accountability tools.
Access to our Dogs By Foster Owners of B Mod Dog Private Facebook Group
Access to the biweekly live Q&A/Office hours
Virtual month-end recap and progress evaluation: we will determine if you have achieved the desired behavior solutions or would like to commit to another Month at A Time.
Your Investment Toward your Dog’s Behavior Solutions
Are you looking for immediate guidance and feedback on a situation or event you have experienced with your dog and are unsure what to do?
We provide emergency virtual consultations to help you navigate, typically within 48 hours of contact. In these sessions, we will listen to your situation, gather a history of your dog and their behavior, evaluate it, provide an honest prognosis, and discuss options with you. They last 60-90 minutes and are billed in 30-minute increments -$63.00/increment.
