We have found Katherine at Animal Psychology Center to be truly excellent. Over the last two years, her training of our dog has proven extremely valuable. She has a special gift related to working with difficult dogs. Our dog was very strong-willed and required a firm but kind trainer. She used her skills and expertise to tailor the training to match the personality of a dog. All the training manual's suggestions proved worthless in helping our dog. Katherine was able to discover ways to help our dog become well-mannered and a great pet.

Katherine provides excellent training & care for our Rough Coat Collie, Copper Rose. I recommend her as she is very professional, knowledgable, and skilled in working with Copper. She also helps us, as owners, so that we can train Copper to be well-adjusted & happy. Copper is part of our family, and we would not let anyone work with her unless we are sure that Copper is in a healthy environment & safe. When we are on vacation, Copper stays with Catherine at Animal Psychology Center. Copper receives extra training as needed as well as socialization with other dogs in a secure setting. Five stars is my rating based on our very positive experiences with Catherine & Animal Psychology Center.

Katherine has saved our dog. When we brought him home from the Humane Society, we found that he had many issues. We tried everything we could to calm him but nobody could work with him. As a last resort I Googled dog Whisperer and Animal Psychology came up. We took the chance and he has become a wonderful dog. He still has problems but Katherine works with him periodically. He is now 4 years old and is a major part of our family. We also adopted one of her Teddy Bear puppies and now both dogs are getting along and we have Katherine to thank.

I do not believe this woman is a pet psychologist as the puppy we bought from her had behavioral problems from day 1 that I am having to fix. I personally think she just gets the dogs & then sells them for a profit.

this place is a scam. look at the prices. the facebook pets for adoption site has this woman black balled. the "adoption" fees are 650, 350, etc. this is a con. too bad for the puppies
