A note from Kate

Trainer + Founder of Sigh of Relief

I’ve made all the mistakes with my dogs. Learning from those mistakes is why I’m here helping others navigate life and their relationship with their own dogs. I have experienced stress, embarrassment, resentment, doubt, shame and probably any other ‘negative’ emotion you could imagine in my journey with my Grimm Pack. Owning a dog (or a small pack of dogs, heh) was not as easy as I thought it would be. My love for my dogs and desire to find answers has led me on an incredible journey. I invite you to take this journey with us. Let’s go through the good, the bad and the ugly together and come out on the other side stronger and empowered. The lessons our dogs teach us last a lifetime.
