FirstBarkKassondra is absolutely the best! Professional, genuine, kind, and a pleasure to work with. She provided us with a solid foundation for training our new puppy (who really loved her!). 10/10 would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog trainer!

Kassondra is not only professional, but extremely kind. She has been a huge help in making us feel capable of caring for and training our first puppy. Best of all, our puppy absolutely adores her. We did the Puppy 101 training, and we are seeing such great results. She has a long way to go, but Kassondra as given us all the tools to help our puppy as she grows.

Highly recommend!! Kassondra is awesome at what she does! We completed the Amazing Dog Program and it was remarkable! As a first time dog owner I did not know where to start when it came to proper training. I was anxious to start a program when I knew I would have so many questions and little knowledge. After reading reviews about this program I knew I wanted to go with Always Pawsitive. Kassondra never made me feel dumb or anxious at any point. My dog loved to jump, pull on the leash, run out of doors, and ignored me more than he listened to me just to name a few. She taught me and my dog more than I could have even imagined! She is very patient, responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. It was amazing watching my dogs response to her training and hearing her explanations for his behaviors! She sends homework each week outlining the objective and how to achieve it. Every goal I had was met and I cannot wait to continue using the skills she taught us from here on out. I seriously cannot recommend her enough!
I would recommend Kassondra to anyone who wants help training their dog. She truly knows dog behavior and how to help people get the best from their pet. My dog loves her! She provides custom instruction and feedback that is unmatched by a group class experience. Her excellent session-specific notes to help you practice at home. Additionally, she is very kind and delightful to work with.
Great training, communication, written materials, and results, thanks!!
