Kathy was very welcoming and receptive to what we had to say. She listens and gives tons of advice on how to work on your dogs’ specific behaviors. She had multiple options for our dogs, and plenty of recommendations on toys and other activities we could use for mental and physical stimulation! We were very impressed with Kathy, will continue to recommend her to anyone looking for dog training, and are so glad we brought our dogs to her!

Kathy was amazing. She understood our dog had anxiety and was helpful at tips to work with him in a positive way. We had taken him to a local dog training facility that was all about the "communicator collar" and it scared our dog tremendously. We love Kathy's approach of rewards with treats and attention.

Kathy and the team at Polite Pooches are fantastic! We started our Rottweiler puppy at Polite Pooches when he was about 11 weeks old. Puppy Class gave him (and us!) a great foundation with commands. We learned a lot about how to enrich his time, work his mind, and save our sanity from the day to day stressors of having a new puppy at home. He just completed the Basic Manners class and we can’t wait to get him enrolled in Intermediate Manners. He has learned so much and is becoming such a lovely member of the family! It was clear to us after our first session that fear free training is the only type of method we will ever use for any of our dogs. The results we have achieved are worth it!

Polite Pooches training is the BEST and Kathy and her team are AMAZING! We have learned so much and the positive reinforcement, consistency and all the techniques work 100%. My puppy Raven is well behaved, house broken (even touches a bell to alert me she needs to go outside to potty) and listens so well. This training was the best investment for both me and my puppy. I highly recommend Polite Pooches.
