NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Kate Lussier
I have been a dog and animal lover since I can remember. My life mission is to make the world a better place to be a dog. As a trainer I see so many dogs that suffer with anxiety and develop unwanted behaviors due to their day-to-day lives not aligning with their mental needs.
Some common training practices, such as treat training and walking on harnesses; combined the overall lack of leadership and lack of mental outlets for the dog often cultivate an unhealthy relationship between owner and dog. My goal is to bring the knowledge to owners that will help them create a better life for their dog by addressing their dog's needs for leadership, mental outlets (mental exercise), and a home environment that cultivates a healthy mental and emotional state for their dog.
Kate is an absolute miracle worker. She really cared about our dogs as if they were hers and took the time to understand the issues we we're having. Her knowledge and friendliness helped make us feel that our dogs were in great, safe care. Kate's boarding is really clean and seemed comfortable for our dogs. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help training and understanding your dog's needs."

"I’m so glad we found Kate! Kate started working with us when our Goldendoodle, Mack, was 3 months old. Mack is now 6 months old and just completed a two week board and train program with Kate. Throughout the process, Kate provided daily updates of pictures/videos with what she was working on with Mack and the progress he was making throughout his stay. Kate is very knowledgeable and informative in different dog breeds and their specifics needs/behaviors. I would highly recommend Kate to anyone."

"Kate is a great trainer. She is very patient and great at passing off critical knowledge to clients. Having a skilled trainer breakdown the small behaviors and cues that often go unnoticed with your dog really pays off. She also takes great care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town. Having a place you trust leaving your dogs at makes traveling much less stressful. Would highly recommend working with Kate if you are anywhere in the eastern CT area."
