Client Testimonials
Kirsten is amazing.
My Belgian Malinois mix rescue girl has been struggling with anxiety, and we were referred to KW Happy Dogs by our veterinarian. Kirsten is warm, calm and incredibly intuitive. She understood my dog from the outset and taught us many things we could do to improve her quality of life. My girl showed improvement during our first session and continues to grow and feel happier and more balanced every day. We are so lucky we found Kirsten!
-Carly & Juno
I highly recommend Kirsten Wojcik. We only had one session so far and I already have some powerful tools to command or redirect my 21-month-old's attention. She is intuitive, calm and uses positive reinforcement that speaks to the way the dog''s brain works. No shock collars. No heavy-handed methods. No ego. Just common sense techniques that work. We both love her. Louis stood on the hill and watched her drive away after our session. That's respect (particularly because one of his best friends was waiting to play right behind him.). I am so glad I found her. I feel very supported.
-Dana & Louis
When our dog Leo started having issues with territoriality, we were worried and reached out to Kirsten for help. With Kirsten's patience, knowledge and repertoire of advanced skills, Leo was able to accept guests into our home and our relationship with him is so much stronger. Now we understand Leo's perspective when guests arrive, and we can support him as we show him that he is "off duty." We are so proud of our little pittie and grateful.
