My mission at Kinder K9 is to keep dogs out of shelters as a result of behavior challenges that statistically lead more often to abandonment or surrender into the shelter system. I believe that by supporting as many households as possible from before the puppy arrives and through the first couple of years, I can have the greatest positive impact on this challenging societal problem. My training methods are grounded in positive reinforcement for educating both dogs and their humans!

We loved working with Lisa! She explained everything very clearly, personalized lessons and tips for us and our puppy, and helped us through the new puppy worries. Lisa got us and our little Herbie feeling confident and able to take on the world! Or at least Midland :)

Lisa is amazing. She is engaged, patient and worked at my level. She taught me new ways to improve my pup's behaviour. My favourite line that I use all the time is... "Make good choices". She helped me understand my dog's behaviour and I saw definite improvement. Highly recommend.
