All About Kate Richardson
CCPDT-KA, IAABC-ADT

IMG_4572.jpg

My passion is to help people have better relationships with their dogs through positive reinforcement training techniques. I don't believe that there is any such thing as a "perfect" dog. Instead, I believe that the goal for training (even in service work) is to have the perfect enough dog for you. Through my years of volunteer and professional training I have developed a love of teaching people why their dogs may be doing the things that they are doing and collaborating with dog guardians to set realistic goals and REACH them. My teaching style is to speak with you as a peer and relay up to date scientific based training methods in relatable and easy to implement ways. 

Ultimately I want to put you in a position to succeed with your dog and I will work hard to do that in whatever way works best for you.
