Katrina MoessnerCanine Educator
Katrina's passion for humans and animals began, like most, as a child, always surrounded by a variety of animals, large and small. As an adult, she received her undergraduate degree in Creative Arts in Therapy; her background in human services has resulted in a commitment to solution-focused and goal-oriented methodologies to achieve measurable outcomes for persisting problems.
Katrina has a strong belief that this unique set of skills can cross the species barrier. She now conducts private training and guidance sessions for dog owners as well as group obedience and puppy education classes, assisting owners to improve their body language and successfully implement positive reinforcement and balanced training methods. Katrina's goal as a canine educator is to improve interactions between humans and animals to develop stronger, more meaningful bonds. |
