Elaine Williams2024-02-11Kazzi came recommended to me, and I would recommend her to others. Kazzi is great and our puppy loves her and the classes, she has a really supportive and adaptive style with lots of knowledge. We started with a 1:1 before our puppy was able to join a class, then the puppy classes and have now continued to further classes.Beth Lowe2023-09-06Kazzi is a excellent dog trainer!! I have attended training classes, reactive rascals class and had 1-2-1 training with my cockapoo. Kazzi’s classes are fun packed and varied, she always knows when to push your dog into the next step of training. I have learned so much from her and feel more empowered to manage my dogs training and behaviour. She is super knowledgeable and has a variety of ideas for you to try with your dog whatever you need to work on. I highly commend Kazzi Cosmic K9’s, she’s a fantastic trainer, rewarding and loves dogs!! I am so glad I found her and cannot thank her enough!!Rebecca Connery2023-08-27Our miniature schnauzer Frankie has been a graduate of the puppy class and is now on his Mission 2. We cannot speak highly enough of the wonderful instruction Kaz has given to help us train Frankie on everything from lead walking, to recall, sit and stays and everything in between. Our boisterous pup loves the lessons- especially the agility training he is now doing. More than this, Kaz has developed our knowledge of how to complete health checks and enrich Frankie’s life.ash hicks2023-08-19Karen is a top class dog trainer!!

Our approach to dog training involves using positive reinforcement techniques to make the process enjoyable for both the pet and the owner. I adapt methods based on the individual dog’s needs, breed tendencies, and learning style, while prioritising the safety and comfort of the dog throughout the training process
I have formal education in animal behaviour along with over 12years practical experience.
I am accredited and a full member of the IMDT and approved by the dog training college.
I have a comprehensive understanding of different breeds and learning styles. I am dedicated to building great relationships with not only the dogs I train but the humans I work with too.
I offer a wide variety of services including bespoke 1:1 training, group classes, reactive rascal courses and online consultations. I also offer a free 20 minute phone call to briefly assess your needs and to discuss the most suitable program moving forward.
You can contact me via email for a free consultation. Following this, we will discuss the most suitable program for your dog. This is dependent on the breed, age and size of your dog.
While it’s advisable to start training as early as possible, dogs of any age can learn new commands and improve their behavior. However, the duration of training may vary based on various factors such as age, breed, and previous training experiences.
Yes, I offer training to address various behaviour issues including separation anxiety. I use proven methods that don’t always require food or treats as a reward. Each behavioural issue is addressed through a custom training plan, made to suit the individual needs of the dog.
Yes, socialisation is a crucial part of a puppy’s development. I offer structured programs that introduce your puppy to a variety of experiences, people, and other animals in a safe and controlled manner. I also focus on all important habituation skills, keeping focus on the handler.
During the training period, I will provide regular updates and progress reports. These updates will include key achievements, areas of improvement, and future training plans. It’s also important to remember that progress may vary between dogs due to factors like age, breed, and temperament
We use a variety of tools depending on the training requirement, such as food rewards, toy motivation, and clickers. The use of any tool is first discussed with the owner and is used only to enhance the positive training experience and never to induce fear or pain. We do not use prong collars or shock collars or anything that would induce physical or mental discomfort.
We respect our clients’ privacy and maintain strict confidentiality regarding all information related to you and your dog
