Kirsti is the very best! She is very knowledgeable, competent and professional. We worked with her for a few months before we sent Otto to stay with her for two weeks. He came back a new dog, and my daily life has improved drastically. I can now trust my dog in public places and he walks on the least beautifully. I also feel like I understand him more and know how to communicate better with him. I recommend everyone to do training with her! If I could give her ten stars, I would!

I had my 8 month old German Shepherd Zeke with Kirsti for a 3 week board and train in October. I see a big difference in him. He is a different boy for sure.
I highly recommend Kirsti for your training needs.

I left my six and a half month old labradoodle with Kirstie for 3 weeks and she came home Tuesday a brand new dog. Training with the e-collar is a very special thing and Kirsty knows how to do it right she showed us in advance just how good it was or we could save my dog's life if she ran towards the road or she took off when she didn't answer her name being a puppy. Bella came home with a new attitude and 7 months old she was there and learned everything Kirsty could probably teach her and then taught us as well with the e-collar now I know my dog is safe and we are thrilled being older people sometimes you just think you can do it and you find out you can't puppies will be puppies they're cursing knows how to train them and she's excellent in what she does besides being professional she's very courteous and kind and treated us with great respect. We are thrilled with this training my dog has gotten and Bella is a whole different dog a great dog thanks to her. Barb and Dennisthank you+ and Bella

I was so happy with the results Kirsti got after training Wilma. I realize she is still a puppy and does need more work at home but the difference in her behavior is amazing. Since I use a walker to walk her it is so important that she stays beside me and this morning it was so nice having her walk with me. A dog was barking at her from a porch and she looked and turned right back to me when I told her leave it, totally ignoring the dog. I was apprehensive about sending her but it was worth it. Kirsti sent videos of her training sessions and was always available if I asked a question. She is the best.
