Aunt Karen's Dog Behavior WNC

Aunt Karen is a true professional in her field! She’s a master at reading dog behavior and used a customized approach that worked specifically what my dog needed. My 1yr old pittie mix is a ball of energy and Karen helped us work on leash reactivity, and building our bond so we could communicate better overall. She’s a wealth of knowledge and shared many resources and skills with us. She’s also very kind and checked in regularly about how things were going! Thank you so much Karen!

New to the Hendersonville area and new owners of a rescued dog, we reached out to Karen for advice on behavioral issues. She far exceeded our hopes and expectations with helpful and nonjudgmental advice. She obviously has extensive experience and has the dog's best interest at heart. She is a trusted resource and we would highly recommend her.

My husband and I are so incredibly grateful for this wonderful woman Karen. She responded same day, while no one else had yet. We have 3 wonderful dogs, 10, 7, and 3. Out of nowhere our two boys decided to become aggressive towards one another. Karen gave us the direction we needed. In just two sessions, we have seen so much improvement. Giving us the tools, to help us get our home back to being loving a fight free. It's a journey of love and consistency. We notice where we went wrong and realize we got lazy with their training. Karen has helped us immensely with reading their body language, and stopping anything before it could ever even start! If anyone is struggling with their pups, I highly recommend this beautiful soul! THANK YOU FOR HELPING US!

I was looking for a behavioralist to help with my pups anxiety, fear, and sometimes aggression issues with other dogs. I contacted several other behavioralists before entrusting Karen with helping my pup. The primary factor was that more so than others, Karen was easily able to articulate common issues and her approach to treatment. From the first visit to the most recent, Karen was intentional, calm, and prepared allowing for rapid progress. While my pup still has a long ways to go, we were able to see results in a very short period of time and set the path for a better future for Rex, whom, for the most part has had to be separated from other dogs due to his behavioral issues. Thank you!

We have taken one of our dogs to group lessons and had a wonderful experience. Our newest foster fail is a 9 month old hound mix..approx 80 pounds. He had two issues that were very concerning, mouthing and dog aggression. After 2 private lessons all issues were addressed and resolved 😊😊😊 I cannot say enough of Karen's gentle guidance 🥰 She not only explains behaviors, but also trains the owners 😉 Love walking with my pups now, no struggles and pulling. Life is sooo much better 😌
