Emily & Jax
“Kat has provided me with an incredible toolkit to help me continuously work with my pup. Jax is my first dog and quite a challenge as a former stray. Kat made me feel at ease through attentive training and answering my endless questions.
Katrina & Macca
“I adopted Macca as a nearly grown puppy — a sweetheart of a dog but also very highly energetic. I struggled in training her to keep pace with me and be more responsive, particularly in outdoor situations where she gets easily distracted. Kat has developed strategies to redirect Macca's attention and improve her performance on a leash. Kat even has her conditioned to be a running partner on a hands free leash. Kat treats my dog with the kindness and respect she would her own dog and I trust her implicitly to continuing refining Macca's behavior.
PJ & Major
“I was seriously at the point of taking my new foster pup Major back to the shelter. Every time a dog walked by, it was like a light switch went off and he became a totally different appearing aggressive dog. But Kat helped reign it in so that he would not be distracted when other dogs walked by. We did basic skills and then started to invest time into the dog socializing. We got to a point when I was able to run with a dog attached to each hip and take him to the brewery with me. He's still got work to do, but it's come so far in just a short time.
Fareed & Beans
“Beans is always excited for his runs with Kat. Since they started running together he has been so much calmer. The runs really help him get his extra energy out.
AR & June
“My dog Juniper was great around the house, but anytime someone came over or in public if people gave her attention she was overly excitable and distracted. After working with Kat, she became much more at ease around others and was taught to focus less on her surroundings and more on her handler. Kat is incredibly easy to work with, and is an excellent communicator making the whole process that much easier. I recommend her to anyone needing extra training help.
The first few months set the pattern for everything that follows. Build commands, cues, and handler communication habits that make daily life manageable.
Structure and skills for adolescent dogs, newly adopted dogs, and adults who need a clearer foundation for daily life.
Precision, reliability under distraction, and distance control for dogs who have the foundation and are ready to do more.
