What Clients Say
“Kitra has worked with some of our most behaviorally challenging dogs, dogs with extreme fear, aggression, reactionary behavior, low impulse control, etc., and produced amazing results. She approaches every dog with respect, understanding, compassion, and a deep knowledge of training techniques and tools. She doesn’t practice a one-size-fits-all solution but tailors her training to each dog. She cares deeply for every dog entrusted to her care. Her compassion and talent have positively and immeasurably impacted our dogs' lives.” -Jennifer Mazzocchi, President & Founder, Mayday Pit Bull Rescue and Advocacy
