"Thank you SO much for a wonderful session—I should say 'a revelation.'

Your discussion put SO many things together for me I can’t tell you. It was as if in various bits of reading, and fitting some training into my life, and talking to people about the many problem dogs—through all that I had all these little bits and pieces of information—but I hadn’t fully connected.

I get some training and then most of my life is work and trying to place dogs and I don’t really THINK about it. Suddenly it was as if everything fit into place."

Kathy was wonderful. We left our session with her with a calmness in our hearts about our furry kids that we haven't had in a while. Thank you!

"Kathy was a wealth of valuable information. I'm so glad to have found her! Charlie does have other issues besides the resistance to grooming and she provided tips on how to deal with those as well. She was very helpful!"
