A useful starting point
Is this right for your dog?
These everyday situations can help you decide whether to call and talk through a first visit.
01
Slow to warm up
Your dog needs time to watch a new person before coming closer.
02
Cautious with touch
Your dog is more comfortable when touch starts slowly and changes with their response.
03
Healthy and older
Your dog benefits from stable footing, an easy position, and more breaks.
04
Ready to wind down
Your healthy, active dog enjoys a quieter rhythm after a full day.

When Sina arrives
Know what happens during the first visit
The visit begins with your knowledge of your dog. Touch comes later, if your dog is comfortable staying close.
Talk first
You share your dog's routine, health context, home, and what has been feeling difficult.
Let your dog look
Sina gives your dog time to watch, sniff, keep some distance, or come closer.
Begin gradually
Touch starts only when your dog remains comfortable near Sina.
Adjust as you go
A change in position, a pause, or walking away changes what happens next.
If your dog does not settle
Your dog does not have to settle on cue
Your dog can stand, move around, drink water, check in with you, or take a full break.
01
Approaching or returning
Sina can continue slowly while watching for another change.
02
Turning away or repositioning
Sina changes his touch, position, or distance.
03
Leaving or staying away
Sina pauses or finishes. There is no routine to complete.
