FirstBarkKatherine is a wonderful trainer and worked wonders on my stubborn boxer. I’ve seen other trainers, but only she gave me the tools I needed to manage my dog’s somewhat obstinate behavior. Highly recommend!!!!

We came to Hop River very nervous if we could keep our dog as a part of our family due to his aggression and resource guarding. After only 3 sessions, we have seen incredible gains in not only our dog’s attitude, but in his response and attention to us as his leaders. We have learned so much, and feel much more confident taking our dog into the community and building our future with him in it. We cannot say enough positive things!! If you’re willing to learn alongside your dog, you will make incredible progress here.
Fantastic
