Testimonials

“Working with Cathy has been a dream come true! Allie (my mini Goldendoodle) was the most obstinate little puppy I’ve ever had. I didn’t think I would ever be able to train her. Cathy works miracles and now my sweet Allie is a joy! I’d recommend Cathy to anyone and everyone. She is great at what she does and is a lovely person as well.”

“This is Charlie, the sweetest boy with a big heart. He was 5 months old when I reached out to Cathy’s K9 Kids for obedience training. I had no idea what I was doing when it came to training a puppy. Using her techniques, I was able to get him potty trained in two weeks. Thank you Cathy! I was very impressed with her teaching skills. #1 – She uses whatever training tools are appropriate for each dog. #2 – She will travel to your home, so both you and puppy are learning in your own environment and #3 – She provides one-on-one training. I can’t thank her enough. I’d highly recommend working with Cathy. Her passion for dogs and upbeat nature makes the class engaging and enjoyable.”

“Five stars! I had a great experience with Cathy’s K9 Kids Dog Training. Cathy was incredibly helpful from start to finish. My two-year-old Schnauzer exhibited high anxiety and worrisome growling when young children were in our home. At our initial consultation Cathy assessed Ivy’s behavior and set goals, followed by a customized training plan. Cathy coached me on how to manage my dog’s behavior in different situations, treating me as a partner in the training process, she had patience and her demonstrations were clear. Following each lesson, I received verbal and written progress reports, including accomplishments and areas that need more work. Prior to coaching from Cathy, Ivy wore a harness when taking a walk and would pull me along. Cathy taught Ivy and I how to walk at the same pace, building a great walking relationship. I am regularly using learned commands with success. Let’s Go, Come, Leave It, Wait, Off, Place, Heal/Sit. Going through the training process my dog understands expectations and it strengthened the bond between the two of us. I am so happy that I made this decision for myself and my dog. I highly recommend Cathy’s K9 Kids Dog Training.”
