She is patient and really understands not only how to work with dogs but how to work with us as the trainers, setting us up for success. She’s also very responsive when we’ve had questions. Every session I feel like we’re working on something new or refining tools we’ve been taught. Kim genuinely cares about the relationship of the owner and dog and the outcome of the trainings.”
