the Meadow Ranch dog training

I have been taking herding lessons with my border collie at The Meadow Ranch for about a year now. As a fellow animal behavior and welfare professional, I am admittedly selective about what trainers I expose my dogs (and myself) to. I am always looking to ensure that I'm learning from professionals who are fair, humane, adaptable based on the individual dog, and can think critically about training strategies. Kelsey is all of those things. She is skilled, very professional, and fun to work with. My dog and I always leave feeling better off than when we arrived, which is the core goal of all of my training sessions. She has helped me bring out the best of my dog's natural abilities and I have learned so much from her! Highly recommend.

I currently have the the pleasure of working with Kelsey as my dog trainer and I cannot recommend her enough! She is truly exceptional in her field and has a unique talent for connecting with dogs and understanding their behavior. From the first session, it was clear that Kelsey is not just a dog trainer, but also a passionate advocate for animal welfare and a wonderful teacher for pet owners. Kelsey is patient, kind, and knowledgeable - and my puppy loves going to her puppy class. Her positive reinforcement techniques works wonders and my puppy is learning so much after just a few sessions. Kelsey is also very responsive to my questions and concerns throughout the training process, and always takes the time to explain things in a way that is easy to understand. Overall, I highly recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate dog trainer who truly cares about the well-being of both dogs and their owners. Thank you, Kelsey, for all that you do!
