"Kata has taught us so much about how to raise our Olde English Bulldogee, Pete and how to understand him better.  She has been wonderful from day one when Pete was a crazy little puppy.  She is very understanding of dogs at all ages and great at explaining why they act the way they do.  Kata has a solution to every problem and is always accessible (even outside of class) to answer our questions.  We have already learned so much from her and will continue to work with her as long as we can!"

"Kata is a pleasure to work with and has helped our pups tremendously.  We have two hounds (Coonhound and Beagle) which are notoriously stubborn dogs but we have made great improvements since working with Kata.  We are now able to walk them instead of them walking us!!  She is very professional and willing to take the time to ensure all or your questions are answered.  She also continues to be as helpful even after we finished up our classes with her.  She understands the doggie mind and is patient with helping us understand as well."

"Over the last couple of months, Kata has done so much to help prepare me for my first puppy.  All of her time, dedication, knowledge and commitment have compelled me to share my story with you.  Kata has customized a training program for me and my puppy and also took the time to meet me at a pet store to go over pre-puppy planning, grooming, dog etiquette, and much more.  Not too many people would spend two hours at a pet store!"

"Ever since we brought Rufus, our Polish Lowland Sheepdog puppy home, Kata has been helping us build a bond with him.  She's exceeded our every expectation of what a dog trainer should be.  Rufus came to us boisterous, mischievous, and full of energy - Kata has helped us learn how to find outlets for his energy, and helped us understand his instinctive drives to herd and play.  She has taught us to communicate with our dog effectively, which makes for a much more pleasant and loving environment for both Rufus and us.  And while he can now sit, stay, lay down and come to us when called, the biggest success with which we can credit Kata is that our dog is so well behaved around children and other animals.  Kata and Rufus have a truly special relationship, and it not only shows through her teaching, but in his butt-wiggling happiness whenever they're together."

"We were having dog aggression issues with our 6 year old Springer/Golden mix Gilbert, and 1 year old Terrier mix Goody is just your average young dog full of trouble.  Kata came to our house and showed us how to act so that our dogs will react positively.  Gilbert no longer hangs over the side of the porch and scares the neighbors and Goody comes every time she is called.  I enjoy living with and walking my dogs again, and I don't hesitate to recommend Kata.  Thanks again!"

"As a non-profit dog rescue we were thrilled when Kata agreed to come help us with training pro-bono.  We work with many dogs that have been neglected and abused, so behavior training is very important in our rescue mission.  Kata went through everything from house training to separation anxiety and answered every question we threw at her.  At the end of the training we had so much information that one volunteer claimed he learned more from Kata in one night about dogs than he has in his entire life!  Kata taught us so many valuable things about dog behavior and changing our actions to make happy and well behaved dogs.  We will not only be using these techniques on our rescue dogs, but we have already taken the advice home with our companions!"

"Kata is a delight to work with.  She's a great teacher with an awesome program.  I love how she's always given me and my puppy the time, attention, patience, and encouragement we need.  I know I can trust her advice and recommendations because she's experienced and knowledgeable.  Her training not only gave me the skills to effectively work with my dog, but also deepen the bond between us.  I'm so glad that I had a chance to work with her!"
