This is me

Hi! My name is Kait Danforth, I'm a professional dog trainer (CPDT-KA certified) & I've been educating dogs & their people for the last 7 years. 
I graduated from Triple Crown Academy, a world class, hands on school for dog trainers, in 2006 (which is now referred to as Starmark Academy - if you try to Google it {I used to be on their website but it's been remodeled since my day & Facebook was just a baby when I was there - I believe most students were using an archaic form of it called "My Space"...but I'll try & find some photos from "back in the day" :)


While there, I learned everything dog; reading body language, all levels of obedience, manners, trick training, Rally O, nose work, beginner agility, search & rescue, service & protection, behavior modification, nutrition, first aid & much more!!

My main focus since school has been pet dogs & keeping them happy in their forever homes. I have a highly competitive nature (seriously, I was kicked off the soccer team in first grade for being too aggressive...) so I don't compete with my personal dogs. Dog sports are supposed to be about having FUN with your pup & unfortunately my brain equates competition with winning. 
So my passion is private lessons & offering a wide array of group classes; I help good people train great dogs!
