Love working with Kathy F.!
Kathy and her team truly provide an exceptional dog training service. They take time to get to know your dog and their needs. And their training methods are tailored to the dog’s level. It has been fun for our dog and us. But most importantly we have seen her grow from a scared rescue to a more confident dog. I highly recommend their services. 🐕
GREAT EXPERIENCE!!! Me - and my dog - loved it!
I took Trixie, my 2yo, Yorkie rescue to see Kathy as she's having a lot of anxiety due to her traumatic past. Kathy was so nice, calming and very knowledgeable. The handouts she provided are a great reference as there was too much to remember! Highly recommend Kathy at Polite Pooches for anyone who is struggling with there four legged friend! ❤️
