"I can’t give Kellie a high enough recommendation. I have a three year old German Shepherd. He was extremely reactive and would lunge and bark and was generally terrifying around people he didn’t know.
Kellie has changed our life. She helped to find goals for my dog and myself to work on that would get us to our goal. Not only did Klaus make progress, but Kellie makes sure that it’s done in a way that the dogs are comfortable and happy/ She doesn’t watch the clock, she spends time with the dog that they need. Klaus is now able to go on walks and pays no mind to strangers we encounter.
Klaus has done board and train at Kellie’s twice. Before we met Kellie and Chris I was under a lot of stress because I needed to board him for a vacation we had coming up, but because of his reactivity I didn’t think I would be able to find anyone that would take him. They were not daunted by his scariness, in fact they said yes right away. Kellie worked with us prior to boarding and by the time it was time for my trip klaus was very comfortable with Kellie and I felt very comfortable leaving him. Their property and set up are very safe and welcoming to the dogs. The area they sleep is climate controlled and large enough that I felt Klaus would be very comfortable. While I was gone Kellie sent me updates daily with pictures and videos. It was clear that Klaus was not only learning, but he was having a great time.
My dog is my family so I completely understand any hesitation or worry surrounding leaving your dog with someone. But I can assure you that Kellie is really the best choice you could make. I know that you will be happy with the results and your dog will be too."

"I have a rescue Malinois, about 22 months-great little dog, but got extremely excited when she saw another dog--not aggressive, just crazy barking, jumping around at the end of her leash, etc. since I do agility with my dogs this was a problem. Got a recommendation from a good friend who has used Kellie (for other problems) We were going for privates as well as classes for a few months and making progress, but we needed a jumpstart--discussed it with Kellie, and decided to send Jiffy with Kellie for 2 weeks--I called it dog immersion boot camp<VBG>. Jiffy lived with Kellie, went to all her events/ classes, along with Kellie's dogs and had several 1 on 1 sessions daily as well. Kellie gave me progress reports as well as videos showing her progress. Jiffy has made incredible progress and we will continue taking classes for a while to cement her behavior.
I am extremely picky re: my dogs---Kellie is the only person I know to whom I would entrust my dog away from me, for training. She is kind but firm, (no force) and very knowledgeable about ways to deal with a particular dog's psyche."
