About Dogs by Foster

What they offer

Dogs by Foster is a canine behavior consulting practice at 204 N Link Ln Unit 6 in Fort Collins. The site says it works exclusively on behavior cases: reactivity toward dogs, people or environments, aggression, anxiety and fear, resource guarding, and bite incidents. Work starts with a required 90-minute Initial Consultation, held virtually or in person at its Fort Collins facility, followed by structured follow-up packages. The Unraveling Reactivity Hybrid Program pairs a four-week virtual foundations course in a small group with a support cohort of four dogs that meets in person and online. The Behavior Lab offers self-paced online courses on reactivity, fear and settling.

How they train

The site credits Ashley Foster, B.S., CBCC-KA, with over 30 years of professional experience. Its FAQ describes evidence-based, positive reinforcement strategies and says it never uses methods or tools meant to cause fear, discomfort, pain or intimidation. Dogs with a bite history get additional screening before work begins.
