Kay is literally one of the best dog trainers in the world. As a dog trainer myself, I can tell how in tune she is with how dogs think and behave. She’s always two steps ahead and can predict a dog’s next move so accurately that she reacts instantly and with such clarity that you can literally see the teaching “click” in the dog’s head in real time. What makes it even more impressive is how clearly and patiently she then explains what she’s doing, making it an incredible learning experience for the human, too! Her training style balances clear, consistent guidance with plenty of fun and affection for the dogs. You can tell how much happier and relaxed dogs are once they have this structure to follow. And on top of her incredible skill and effectiveness, Kay is so down-to-earth and fun that you can’t help but leave her sessions with a smile! I genuinely can’t recommend her more.

Game Changer for My Reactive Dog

Had my first private session with Kay and her team this past weekend, and I’m already seeing a huge difference in my dog’s behavior. He was extremely reactive to people and other dogs, and walks had become really stressful. We’d tried multiple trainers before without much success, so this has been a game changer.Kay truly understands the pitbull breed and how to work with dogs like mine. He’s not only listening better, but he seems happier and more confident—and I finally feel comfortable taking him out again.What really stands out is the level of support. Kay brings in additional trainers and uses other well-trained dogs to create real-life training situations, which has made such a difference. Highly recommend!

I got a different dog back

My baby Peanut just finished her two week board and train with HightailK9. When I reached out to Kay, I wanted to get specific behaviors under control like lunging, walking better on a leash, want to attack smaller animals (she has a high prey drive). After picking Peanut up yesterday, Kay informed me that yes she likes to hunt, but a lot of her behavior is her desire to dominate. 🤯 Kay had my sister (who walks with a cane) walked with Peanut and she did fantastic. She matched my sister’s pace, heeled when told, and downed. I took Peanut on her first walk this morning and she had lots of challenges (cats, squirrels, 4 or 5 dogs) and she was able to successfully LEAVE them be. Kay’s energy is infectious. It was such a joy to work with her and I would love and will work with Kay again. Highly recommend.

You want an easier life with your dog? Book Hightail k9s!

I have been searching for a dog trainer for a while and I’m so glad my family found hightail k9s! I have only had one session so far and I’m extremely pleased with the results I’m already seeing. In less than 5 minutes Koko was already adjusting walking with Kay. Kay was very clear in instructions and guiding me on how to manage leash pulling. I not only feel more confident and relaxed walking my dog, but my children do as well. The energy was as amazing as the training and that means a lot! We learned more about our fur baby but also had fun. I highly recommend investing in training with Hightail K9s, both you and your dog will love the outcome!

Stella’s Transformation😍🙏

This is why my pup Stella is doing so great!!!😍 I used to be shouting and trying to do corrections while trying to work from home and it was driving me insane!!😵‍💫 She literally would be bouncing off couches and eating the floor!😭 But now she’s so much calmer. The transformation is incredible!Sometimes, I feel she’s toooo quiet so I’ll check in on her and all she’s doing is sleeping (in her bed) The socialization with other dogs during the board and train also helped her reactivity. Stella is now a relaxed and content pup and you have brought peace back to our home. Thank you Kay. You and your team did an AMAZING job!🙏👏👏

Hightail Kay

Kay, amazingly provided immediate training results with one of my most challenging Livestock Guardian pups. She amazingly instructed me via virtual session, and had my large LGD responding to several commands within minutes! She provides a major value and expertise! Wow is all I have to say.

Just finished a session with Hightail K9s and I couldn't be happier. Kay is just as warm in real life as she is online. Great energy, clear direction. Such a knowledgeable trainer. Will definitely be back!
