About KV Dog Training
KV Dog Training LLC provides in home dog training in Dutchess County and surrounding areas. I focus on real life behavior, not just commands that work in a controlled setting. I help with leash pulling, reactivity, aggression, and the everyday issues that make living with your dog frustrating. I also work with puppies to prevent those problems from starting in the first place. This isn’t a cookie cutter program. I show you what’s actually causing the behavior and how to fix it in your day to day life so the results actually stick. All programs start with a comprehensive in-home consultation where I evaluate your dog, discuss your goals, and begin training right away. You’ll

Kim is absolutely amazing! We saw so much progress after the very first training session that we had to continue on. After just 4 sessions we have seen a tremendous improvement in Kona’s leash manners and reactivity. We’ve learned so much in our sessions and are so much better equipped to provide Kona with the necessary leadership and structure to succeed. Not to mention he LOVES the freedom he is gaining with his e-collar and off-leash training! Could not recommend Kim more!
Thanks to Kim’s guidance, our two naughty dogs are much more civilized at home and when on their walks! She helped me discover the eager students hidden in their shaggy coat…they have made tremendous improvements in two months. I look forward to continue working with Kim so we can keep up the good behavior and maybe even fine tune it some more. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Kim from KV Dog Training has been a pleasure to work with our puppy Atlas. She has not only trained my puppy the basics, but also taught me the skills to apply for everyday use. She has helped us with potty training, nutrition, leash training, and obedience skills. Kim is very patient, knowledgeable, and I would recommend her training services to anyone in the area.
