FirstBarkKatrina's skill paid off this past weekend when we took our pup to a hockey tournament with a hotel stay. He met at least 100 people - gave them all kisses - and a dozen other dogs with confidence and calmness. I credit Katrina and her puppy school board/train for the foundation that made this possible. DO IT!

Katrina is an absolute joy to work with. We have been working with her for two years doing Agility with my very anxious, shy & scared dog. Katrina has helped Phoebe come fully out of her shell when it comes to Agility, and she becomes a completely different dog on the course. She was incredibly patient as it took Phoebe a long time to shake the anxiety before entering a group setting. Her intuition and care for animals is evident in every interaction; not to mention it's clear every dog she meets loves her.

So incredibly thankful for Katrina Ahead Of The Pack Dog Training Center, LLC. We were at out Witt’s end with our unexpected puppy adoption. We were referred to Katrina and it was by far the best thing that has happened to our family of 5. We signed him up for the 10 day puppy training..She is a lifesaver. It is evident she truly cares about the pups in her care and is committed to helping them learn from the ground up. We would be lost without her! Truly appreciate how she took the time to also train us on how to continue his training at home and continues to follow up to discuss progress and talk through any set backs we face. 🤍🐾 Truly thankful and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Katrina is a masterful and passionate dog trainer. When we found ourselves under water with our four month old corgi puppy, So we signed him up for Katrina‘s 10 day Overnight puppy training and it did wonders. He came back such an obedient and sweet boy. She really saved us. We’re so grateful for Katrina‘s amazing work. Now our little guy is 10 months old and taking her agility course. He’s obsessed. It’s been such a fun experience for both of us.
Ahead of the Pack Training with Katrina has been just amazing. Katrina has worked with two of our puppies so far and the results are very impressive. Her natural love of dogs shines theough in all she does. She has provided many helpful suggestions and is always available for additional assistance. We highly recommend her for all you dogs training needs.
