I am a balanced trainer. This means I believe in rewards through praise and food but I also believe that dogs need to be told no when they exhibit bad behavior. Dogs need to be held accountable when breaking the rules of a known command.

Very pleased with the results of our golden doodle having been enrolled with Kristie.
Her technique and teaching skills are amazing. Would highly recommend new beginnings for helping one to understand their dog, as no 2 breeds are alike. Having Labrador retrievers in the past, our golden doodle was more difficult to figure out. Kristi was the answer to solving the puzzle.
Having great times with training drills and keeping it fun for our dog and for us.

Kristi is great after 1st lesson we were able to walk our 100 lb bernese mountain dog without pulling. He listens great it's still a work in progress because he's still a puppy but she has done wonders for us! Thank you Kristi

I took my puppy, Tito to 3 training sessions with Kristi. You can tell she’s very knowledgeable and experienced. I learned a lot of useful things from her that I will be utilizing in the future!! Tito & I say thank you ☺️

I took my 3 year old rescue pup to Kristi for leash pulling and other behaviors that needed help. After one session, he was already walking so much better on the leash! He listens a lot better now too. I would highly recommend Kristi to anyone in need of dog training.
