Kathleen is very knowledgeable and has helped me with my 3 year old labradoodle. The class sizes are smaller so that she can address each dog's needs individually; at the beginning of each class, she specifically asks about how each dog did during the last week, and tailors the class to teach what is more pressing/useful. She focuses on developing a better relationship between each person/dog pair, and gives the tools to continue training at home

Kathy has been a godsend to me and my pup, Sunny. She has given me practical tools that have set me and Sunny up for success. In just a month’s time, the difference is incredibly noticeable. She is accessible, provides great feedback and has helped me as a dog owner in ways I never thought possible. She is always on time, she gives me homework and leaves great notes I can lean on in between our sessions. She has really helped me think differently about the way I interact with my dog and I’m incredibly grateful for her!

If your dog has a behavior that needs love, support, and training, this is absolutely your gal. We didn't need "basic training" or even reactive leash training. Our dog wasn't exactly reactive, she is anxious and then has a hefty alert bark, with the occasional protective bark over our new baby when a human enters the house. Through Cosmic Dog, we have been able to support our loving girl to live in her calm headspace and be much less attentive/high alert to her surroundings. Thankful to have this training and support. Kathleen speaks dog.

Cosmic Dog Training has been a wonderful experience. Kathleen was not only able to help me better understand my dog's breeds and how they interact while being trained but how to work with my neurodivergence to gain better results on my end as the trainer! Highly recommend

Kathleen has been so helpful teaching us how to develop and solidify our relationship with Fiona, our sweet Staffy who sometimes does not make the right decisions. Her approach is direct, rewards focused, and effective! We highly recommend Cosmic Dog Training - big issues, small issues, Kathleen has the expertise to help.
