My dog Stellah a GSD was having trouble listening to her family and was over protective of her parents. She was 2.5 years old when we decided to give kiwis dog training a call. Kirstie and Nick came to our house one Sunday afternoon to visit with Stellah and see how she acted in our house and with other dogs. After the meeting we decided to send Stellah with them for over two weeks the results speak for themselves. Stellah now comes when she’s told and parks herself in a seated position next to us when she is called. Her off leash recall is great and her overall behavior around other dogs is non aggressive. Stellah also goes once a week with kiwis on their pack walk. Which reiterates her training and also lets her get out and burn of some energy. Overall we are very happy with the dog training, boarding, and pack walks that Kiwis offers. Just wanted to thank Kiwis dog training for changing our dog for the better.

I called Kirstie after the rave reviews from a friend who sent their puppy to them. I have an older (6 yrs old) and very large lab who is a super loving, great dog but was also very anxious, would react badly to most strange dogs, and basically pulled our arms off on every walk. Kirstie was very open and honest that his issues could be addressed, but that it would take a bit more time. I decided to enroll our dog in their 4 week program and it has been life changing for us and for our dog. Kirstie and Nick are miracle workers. Our dog, who I couldn't let near a strange dog now runs fine with a pack. I've taken him with me to dog friendly stores and look forward to walks. You aren't just abandoned after the training ... they've taken additional time to work with us as well to make sure that we know how to carry forward. We continue to send him now to Kiwi's for daycare as he loves the day out with his old and new friends! If you are thinking about it, all I can say is do it .. the sooner the better!

We cannot say enough good things about Kirstie and her team at Kiwi's Dog Training Academy. We were at a loss with Franklin who is a black lab mix. He was impulsive, anxious, and at times aggressive. We recently moved into a home without a fenced in back yard and were unsure how we could keep Frank safely at our home. That is where Kirstie came in. She successfully trained Franklin using the e-collar and we can now have him in our backyard safely without concern. We can now take him out in public with confidence which is not anything we would dream about. Many people have come into our home shocked to learn that Franklin is the same god they met previously. Not only are we more confident, but Frank is too! He seems less anxious and has more control over himself which has made him a lot more comfortable in our home. We could not be happier with the results. Kirstie and Nick provided multiple updates a day and were available any time we had any questions about the program. The training Franklin received at Kiwi's Dog Training Academy has overall improved our experience with Franklin and made life so much easier! I could not recommend Kirstie and her team enough for any dog training needs.

Kirstie is amazing. My puppy Stanley was a handful and with Kirstie’s guidance and training he has really become a well behaved dog that I can bring anywhere! 5 Stars for sure!
