What if you never had to repeat a cue again?
What if you never had to guess what your dog is feeling again?
With Loving Leadership + Basic Obedience there's no need to repeat yourself over and over again. You'll learn how to communicate clearly and effectively with your dog in 3 classes.
Tell me if this sounds like you,
- Your dog doesn't listen to you
- You're constantly repeating cues to your dog
- You are frustrated and embarrassed by your dog's behavior
What if there was a way to communicate clearly to your dog, have them understand you and build a great relationship while having fun?
That's exactly why I created Loving Leadership + Basic Obedience!
With these in-person classes you will get:
- Three in-person group classes taught by a professional dog trainer
- Learn how to communicate clearly to your dog AND have them listen!
- Three individual classes, building on each other to achieve a lifetime of learning (each class is approximately 1-hour long)
- Three hours to achieve a lifetime of learning (each class is approximately 1-hour long)
- Small group class, limited to 6 participants and their dogs
- Observer Pass (no dog) available for anyone who would like to attend but whose dog is not ready.

Created by Kate Gooch, dog trainer, founder of K9 Kate
Taking my experience working with hundreds of clients and their dogs and one of the most common challenges to training I see is lack of communication and understanding. Once you get your dog's attention and show them how fun learning can be, your training will take off like a greyhound!
I created this class as a foundation to get your training off to a great start. When you have basic communication, attention and some obedience skills, teaching most other skills is a snap.
My goal with this class series is to help you get your training off to a great start if you are just beginning or get you back on the right path if you are a seasoned dog-parent and you have been struggling with training for some time. It's a reset into a direction of fun and positivity for you and your dog.
