Solving Behavior Puzzles
Dog Math Behavior Consulting continues See Spot Behave's behavior work — now a practice devoted entirely to it.
For dogs who are reactive, fearful, anxious, aggressive, or guarding, this is help that goes deeper than obedience: every dog is evaluated personally by Devi Puckett, and every plan is built for the real reason behind the behavior.
It's the same trusted approach, with a sharper focus. When your dog's behavior doesn't add up, we'll help you solve it.
Adventures with dogs!
See Spot Have Fun is where dogs get out into the world with Diane Smith: guided hikes, camping and trail trips, trail walking, travel with your dog, and enrichment that burns energy and builds confidence.
Real trails, real miles, and a calmer, more connected dog at the end. Dogs who need behavior help are referred to Dog Math; dogs ready to explore head Diane's way.
You don’t need a perfectly-behaved dog. You need a more connected one.
Behavior challenges aren’t solved with sit-stay-heel. They’re solved with emotional safety, trust, and partnership. We help dogs struggling with aggression, reactivity, fear, anxiety, and stress learn how to cope, connect, and thrive. "The best of the best. I learned more about dog behavior in one hour than I have my entire life. They are wonderful and know their stuff!" ~Angel P., Georgetown
Beyond Training
Maybe you’ve already tried training or medication, and your dog is still barking at strangers, growling at guests, hiding during storms, or falling apart at the smallest stress.
Or maybe you haven’t done anything yet—because you’re not sure where to start, who to trust, or how serious things really are.
Either way, you’re here now—and that’s the first step.
Some dogs don’t need more cues or better cookies. They need help recovering from stress, building confidence, and learning how to adapt to daily life.
That’s the heart of our work: not just behavior change, but emotional change.
We build solid, practical plans that support both the dog and the human—so progress sticks, and peace returns to your household.
This is where it begins.
What We Offer
Real behavior change starts
with emotional safety.
Every dog is different—and so is every family. We don’t follow a script or stick you in a generic package. We build smart, flexible behavior plans that meet you where you are and evolve as your dog progresses.
- Behavior Plans That Work: Tailored to your dog’s body, brain, and background—with clear steps, not guesswork. We look at behavior through the lens of trust, emotional safety, and practical daily life.
- One-on-One Coaching: We meet you virtually or in-person to help you implement the plan with confidence. No overwhelm, no judgment—just step-by-step support.
- Ongoing Partnership: You’ll never be left guessing. We adjust the plan as needed, answer your questions, and stay connected between sessions.
- Veterinarian Collaboration: We work as part of your dog’s care team. Our plans make life easier for you, your vet, and your support network.

How It Works
- Schedule your consultation:
This is two-part step - an intake call and an in-home evaluation, which we'll schedule at during the intake. You can schedule your intake call right away.
- Your dog's evaluation and first tools:
After intake, we'll meet in at your home to assess your dog and gather information for the training plan. You'll get easily applicable tips and tools too. We'll schedule the first training session at the end of this appointment. Then...
- Get your plan:
You’ll receive a clear, customized behavior plan with practical steps that fit your life. The plan is a living educational outline with milestones, and checkpoints towards your goals.
- Work together:
Rather than a cookie cutter package, your plan flexes as your dog learns, as you get the support you deserve, and the skills and tools you need. Some dogs graduate early and sometimes the goals change. You're never locked in to a path or price.
Peace of Mind
Education and experience are the foundation of our training philosophy and practice. You can rest assured that you and your dog are in good hands.
This isn’t about obedience.
It’s about creating a relationship where behavior change is possible. If your dog needs more than drills, and you want more than short-term fixes—we’re ready when you are.
