Kat Todd 

With over 20 years of experience, Kat the Dog Trainer and her dedicated team have been transforming canine manners and behavior. As a certified professional dog trainer, Kat has honed her skills under the mentorship of Joel Silverman, the esteemed host of Dog University on Animal Planet and author of "What Color is Your Dog." Joel imparted to Kat the invaluable lesson that dogs, like humans, have diverse learning styles.

Kat's approach centers on building strong, trusting relationships with both dogs and their owners, ensuring a personalized and effective training experience. Our training methods are engaging, fun, and dog-friendly. We steadfastly reject the use of shock collars, force, or intimidation. Instead, our techniques are customized to meet the unique needs of each dog, promoting a positive and rewarding training environment.

Our team consists of highly qualified and experienced trainers committed to helping your dog become a happy, confident, and well-mannered member of the pack. We encourage you to read our glowing reviews on Google and Yelp to see the success stories of our clients.

Training Philosophy

At our core, we believe that your dog is an integral member of your family and deserves to be treated with kindness and respect. Our goal is to help you build a lasting and meaningful relationship with your dog, grounded in trust and mutual understanding.

We make training enjoyable and use dog-friendly methods that align with your dog's natural temperament, abilities, and drives. When training is rewarding, dogs are more eager to participate, learn quickly, and retain more, which epitomizes effective training.

Recognizing that every dog is a unique individual, our trainers invest time in getting to know you and your dog. We take a comprehensive approach to training, considering factors such as breed, age, sex, temperament, general health, and history. This information is used to create a tailored training plan that addresses all of your dog's obedience and behavioral concerns. Our methods and tools are adapted to suit each situation, ensuring the best possible outcomes for you and your furry friend.
