Positive Dog Training with Kala Farnham, CPDT-KA 🐾

Compassionate. Evidence-Based. Tailored to Your Dog.

With over 15 years of experience in animal care and professional certification from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CPDT-KA), I offer gentle, relationship-based training that helps dogs—and their people—thrive. I use force-free, rewards-based methods rooted in behavioral science and respect for your dog’s emotional well-being.

Whether you're welcoming a rescue into your home, managing reactivity, or starting out with puppy basics, my approach honors the unique story behind every wagging tail.
