Kaia at Cold Creek Dog Training has been an absolute lifesaver. Our pup has always been prone to anxiety, struggling with excessive barking, lunging, and just generally being a handful. After working with multiple trainers, Kaia has been the only one who truly helped us understand how our dog was feeling. She took the time to assess his needs and never shied away, even when he barked at her. Unlike past trainers—one of whom was too afraid to even approach him—Kaia remained calm, confident, and dedicated. Her training has been transformative. We live in a busy neighborhood with kids, dogs, and daily commotion, and for a long time, we had to avoid the front of our house just to prevent stressful encounters. Now, we can confidently walk out the front door, knowing our pup is making progress and, more importantly, that we have the tools to handle any situation. While he's still learning and growing, my husband and I now have the knowledge and confidence to continue building his trust and managing his anxiety effectively. This experience has been incredibly freeing for us. Before working with Kaia, we felt lost, as none of the other trainers had provided lasting results. We can’t thank her enough for her patience, expertise, and dedication to helping both us and our pup.

Emily helped me and my dog immensely! After being attacked multiple times as a puppy, Eclair became very reactive and scared of other dogs and people. When she came to live with me, she could not walk past people without barking, or dogs without twisting, pulling, barking and generally freaking out. It was very stressful to even take her outside and I didn’t know where to start. Luckily, Emily transformed both of our lives with dedicated, informative training. Eclair is so much happier and healthier than she was before. We are both confident to go for long walks in our neighborhood and she has even visited places I never thought she could! Her reactivity toward people has dramatically diminished and she has many friends. Eclair is still on her training journey, but I have the tools and resources to continue her journey and help her each day. I am very thankful for the experience.
