About KR Dog Training

About

KR Dog Training describes itself as "Compassionate, Science-Based Dog Training in Racine, WI," working through "enrichment strategies, training games, and positive reinforcement to build trust and address behavioral challenges." The About section is written in the first person by Katie, "founder and behavior consultant at KR Dog Training," who describes herself as "a Fear Free Shelter Certified professional, an IAABC Shelter Behavior Affiliate, and an Absolute Dogs Pro Dog Trainer" with experience "working hands-on with hundreds of dogs in rescues, shelters, and private homes."

Approach

The stated method is concept-based: "rather than focusing only on obedience, we build skills that help dogs navigate the world with confidence." Sessions involve "interactive training games, enrichment strategies, and practical management plans to create sustainable, long-term results." The business also lists accessibility among its values, describing an effort to keep "training inclusive and welcoming for all dogs and their people."

Services

Private sessions "provide personalized coaching to help address reactivity, fear-based behaviors, and other behavioral challenges," and take place "in your home for tailored recommendations that fit your daily life," with follow-ups optionally at a third-party location. Each session includes "A written behavior plan, emailed to you after each session," a treat pouch, and ongoing email support. The initial 90-minute consultation is listed at $150 with 60-minute follow-ups at $100. An Adoption Success Path for newly adopted dogs starts with a 60-minute consultation at $85, with follow-up packages listed at $320 for four sessions and $450 for six. The site serves a 15-mile radius of Racine, with travel fees beyond.

Rescue work

A separate lane supports rescues, fosters and adopters, with workshops on "Focus & Engagement, Confidence Circuit, and Nosework," mock adoption events, and sponsorships "for those who want to support rescue organizations." Group workshops are listed on the site as coming soon, with a space still being sought.
