Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
We have a 4 yr old border collie 50 lbs who is wonderful with people but becomes aggressive around other dogs, especially by her house. She was attacked by two german shepards and has not been dog friendky since. Can she be retrained?
Most likely yes however I would like to chat with you and get more info before I can answer for sure. Give me a call when you have a few minutes.

Cathy has been instrumental in helping with all three of our rescue Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd dogs. She has taught us how to be pack leaders within and outside our home, as well as how structure, consistency and foundational obedience are critical to establish a balanced and peaceful relationship with our dogs. Cathy truly cares about dogs and takes the time to teach owners. I highly recommend Cathy!
If you want to have a dog that listens, loving and calm. Contact Cathy immediately! She is excellent, loving and caring person. She has the expertise to train and direct any K-9 to be an excellent pet and family member! She is in a class of her own! Thank you so much Cathy! Sincerely Patterson Family!
When Cathy comes over Sadie starts behaving. Ha! It’s so strange! She has a presence about her and that’s one of the things she teaches. I trust her with my dog because I know she loves and wants her to be the best dog she can possibly be. On top of that, she just a kind person who’s enjoyable to be around (which is important as well as this should be a fun experience). Highly recommend.

Cathy has been a saving grace for our family. Benny is our 2 year old rescue that is afraid of his own shadow. Cathy did an assessment and did more in that hour than the previous trainer did in 4 visits. We sent Benny to Cathy’s doggie bootcamp for 4 says and he came back a new dog. He is now confident and more of a “dog” using his dog skills rather than what he’s adopted from us or his housemates that are cats. I wouldn’t trust anybody else with our Benny. Thank you. Cathy!
