Ahead of the Pack Dog Training Center

Katrina is truly amazing. We had previously tried another trainer with our nervous pup and did not really see any difference in his anxiety/confidence/obedience. We have now seen an amazing difference (and so have our neighbors!) since starting with Katrina and will continue to attend future classes/programs. She explains the WHY behind everything to ensure that you understand fully what you're asking your dog to do & the psychology behind it. Highly recommend. She really understands dogs as individuals and is the perfect human for this job!

Ahead of the Pack is the best, hands down. We have been working with Katrina since our dog was about 6 months old. First with the board and train and then with subsequent boarding. Katrina is the only person we trust to leave our pup with, we cannot speak more highly of her. She provides guidance, reassurance and expertise. She is extremely experienced and thorough in her training. Our dog, Pepper has benefited so much from her lessons and we will continue to use Katrina and her team. Our dog showed great improvement in skills following the board and train and it is reassuring that when we are out of town our training will not be forgotten. Do yourself and your dog a favor and work with Ahead of the Pack.

Katrina is an incredibly knowledgeable & “no BS” kind of dog trainer. Which is exactly what I loved so much about her and her teachings. She encouraged my partner & I to enroll our puppy into a 1-on-1 teaching course over the group class, which we both can say was a wise choice. We chose the 4 week training course, and our pup Lannister learned SO much. We can tell that he not only had retained his teachings, but is willing/eager to learn. This training was worth every penny!!

Katrina is absolutely amazing, a true dog whisperer! We sent our pup to her 10 day board and train and we’re just amazed at how much he learned. He came back so well trained and now listens to commands and walks well on lease. Katrina even bathed him before he came home! Katrina took so much time with us to review what she taught him so we can continue reinforcing everything he’s learned. Our pup, George, loves her too. He cried for her at the door when she left! That says it all. Amazing experience.
