Testimonials
I had a wonderful experience with Katherine at Fiskar K9. She helped me immensely with my newly adopted Husky (medical foster). She helped me understand what her issues were. She explained easy ways to handle different issues. They were things that I could easily practice. She worked within my budget to give the best experience to me and my dog. It was money well spent. There was such a dramatic difference in the confidence of me, and my dog, as I put her advice into practice. Thank you Katherine! I just adopted another Husky from Paws without Borders….so will be setting up another training soon!
– Client
I am so grateful Tucson has Katherine as a resource for dogs and dog owners alike. She brings so much experience and knowledge to dog behavior and her approaches are balanced with results. I have not only seen the results with friends’ dogs but she has also helped me immensely with my foster pup, Rooks, who was on a deadline for shelter decline. He is now thriving and ready for adoption. And her support extends past the actual training. She offers a pack walk experience most Saturdays for current and former clients which is invaluable for the types of dogs she helps. I recommend her highly, for whatever challenges you may be facing with your pup.
– Client
Katherine has trained multiple of my dogs, including several foster dogs I was able to bring to her. She has a true passion for working to an individual dog’s needs, and the results speak for themselves. Kaleb, a true unicorn success story, is here with me today because of the work she put into him, and taught me to continue doing at home with him. He did a board and train and then several day trains with Katherine. Kaleb learned how to be a DOG with her, even after he had done board and trains and work with other trainers. His confidence and ability to connect with me skyrocketed. And my 75lb walrus, Biscuit, did some leash work with her that made it so even while I’m in cancer treatment, I can walk him. Which just about made me cry, I was so happy. He can also now walk in a park without a muzzle because he’s come so far in his resource guarding too.
