Kim's Dog Coaching Chicago, Illinois

Kim is fantastic. She has spent most of her life devoted to animals and helping people with their dogs. She leads by example and gives a lot of love, encouragement, and authenticity to each and every class she teaches. We will continue to train with her, as her balanced approach really works.

Knows what she's talking about, and to the point

Kim is the best and will go out of her way to help you. She is to the point and will tell you the truth, but this will make you a better handler and drastically improve your relationship and bond with your dog!

Kim is an amazing trainer who provides straightforward nonessence advice on training your pup. She really cares for your dog's well being and future. I have a border collie smoothed-hair who is extremely smart and can be stubborn. With Kim's help, I was able to train my pup into a well behaved focused dog who could still enjoy puppy life. Even post classes, Kim helped me with some issues that arose during the fireworks and kid interactions which truly helped turn my pup's fear around.

I had been training my dog for a year using books and the internet. I wasn't getting the results I wanted. I called Kim to figure out where to start. She recommended basic/beginner obedience. 5 weeks later and it's like I have a different dog. Dog training takes time and never really ends. Kim will set you on the right path. She will show you what you're doing wrong (it's not the dog) and get you doing it right. I intend to take every course she offers. Every dog in my class showed improvement. Classes seem to be no more than 8 people at a time so there's plenty of personal attention. Kim encourages us to contact her with any questions outside of class. I called at least 4 times for help and got what I needed. If you're on the fence about training don't wait. Sign up now. Best $175 (total cost) I've spent and you won't regret it either.

Jorge is a great trainer!!!

If you want/need a dog trainer, Kim is the person to go to. And if you're looking for something extra, Kim has a variety of classes beyond basic obedience, that will keep you and your dog busy year round.

Kim is amazing. Mac and I completed training with her and she rocks.
