DOG TRAINER (please include your name and phone number on the email) Option 1 I, would like to offer my full and complete support to Kathy Trayler’s application to the RDKB. I know Kathy as a wonderful, compassionate and skilled dog trainer. She has a depth of knowledge and intuition where dogs are concerned that is a unique asset to our community. Kathy is generous with her time and expertise. A well-trained dog is an excellent companion and family member. A well-trained dog is unlikely to endanger anyone in a public setting. A well-trained dog is much less likely to be surrendered to a shelter. I support any application that enables Kathy to continue offering this important service to our community. Option 2 I went to puppy training classes with Kathy. My dog and I really enjoyed her friendly, positive style of training. She was always a good problem solver and helped us prevent and solve many problem behaviours. Our dog is now 13 years old and she has been a delightful addition to our family. Option 3 I was at the end of my rope with my rescue dog. Kathy helped me to solve a lot of the problems I was having and we now have a well behaved, happy dog that is a pleasure to be around. The community would greatly miss her services.
