I am a graduate of the CT-K9 Professional Dog Trainer School and a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. Committed to providing the most effective, humane solutions to clients’ dog training needs, I avidly pursue ongoing continuing education and professional development by attending seminars, networking with other trainers and keeping current on all industry literature. Secret Lake Dog Training, LLC puts clients first. When not helping clients to enjoy easier lives with their dogs, I spend time with my four dogs. "We absolutely love Karen and her gentle demeanour. She is very knowledgeable and a fantastic instructor. Gentle reinforcement of people and puppies." - Jennifer
personalized attention and concern for the overall well being of all the dogs." - Bruce " If/when I ever get any new dogs, as long as she continues to train I will only go to her- highly recommend her training style and enjoyed going to class." - Tara
and be happy. We are first time dog owners. Our puppy loved attending kindergarten and we learned how puppies play and learn. Our puppy responded very positively to the experience. It's fun for everyone. All questions are answered and help is given. Both dogs and owners are happy during and after class." - Althea
