A little goodbye

After thinking long and hard about it, I’ve made the difficult decision to close Katie’s Kanines Dog Training.

This is something I’ve been considering for a while, and since having my baby, I’ve found it much harder to keep up with everything in the way I used to. I’ve always taken a lot of pride in replying to messages properly, taking the time to give detailed advice and helping wherever I could, even when someone wasn’t booking a session.

Unfortunately, over time, I found that I was putting a huge amount of time and energy into messages and advice, only for people to disappear without replying. I never wanted to make people feel like they had to book a session just to be able to have a chat or ask for some advice, and I never will. Helping people and their dogs has always been something I genuinely loved doing, but eventually it became too much for me.

Maybe one day I’ll come back as a dog walker again, who knows!

For now, I just want to say a massive thank you to every single client I’ve had over the years. None of this would ever have been possible without you, and I’m genuinely so grateful that you trusted me with your dogs.

I will miss the dogs more than anything. I’ve met so many amazing dogs over the years, watched them grow, overcome challenges and become happier and more confident, and getting to be a small part of that has been incredibly special.

If you need help finding another trainer, dog walker, groomer or boarding facility, please feel free to send me a message. I’ll always do my best to point you in the right direction.

I’ll keep this page active for a little while so hopefully this reaches as many people as possible, but eventually the page will be removed.

Thank you for everything.

Love,
Katie and the dogs

8.5 months old and consistently brilliant recall. She recalls from play, people, dogs, livestock, distractions and chasing her pals. I’m so proud of her. Of course she’s still only young, so she’s not perfect but she’s very nearly there 💜 whatta girl 🫶🏼

I have 1-1 slots available in the Downpatrick and surrounding areas next week ☀️☀️

💜A few changes going forward - please read! 💜

A little update from me with a few changes coming to how I’ll be offering my services going forward.

Firstly, 1-1 sessions will now be focused on local areas around me, including Downpatrick, Newcastle, Ballynahinch and surrounding areas. I won’t be covering most of Northern Ireland for 1-1s anymore, which will allow me to keep things a little more manageable while still giving each client the time and attention they deserve.

I’ll also be giving my website a bit of an update. It will have a full price list, along with a breakdown of each service and exactly what you can expect from each one. In the meantime, my messages are always open if you have any questions. There is absolutely no pressure to book, and I’m always happy to give advice where I can.

Residential training will now be a minimum of 2 weeks. This is something I’ve thought about a lot, and although it does mean the overall price will increase, I genuinely feel it’s the best way to get the right outcome for both you and your dog. I don’t want to rush training or send a dog home before I’m happy with the progress being made. My aim is always to provide the highest standard of training possible and hopefully exceed your expectations.

Day train will also be available one day per week, with the day to be confirmed. You’ll be able to choose between a full day or half day, and I’ll only be taking a maximum of 2 dogs each week.

Holiday boarding will be available to existing regular clients only, with strictly one family booked in at a time. If you have a holiday coming up, even if your dates are only provisional, please let me know as early as possible so I can keep the dates in mind for you. There will be a small price rise with this.

And finally, I’ll be taking a little break from 9th September until 20th September☀️

Services resuming next week 🤞🏼

Thank you so much, as always, for all of your continued support. I’m really looking forward to getting back into things and continuing to work with all of your lovely dogs🫶🏼 🐾 🐕

Hi everyone 🐾

I think I’ve got back to all enquiries I missed over the last couple weeks due to the arrival of my wee baby! If I haven’t got back to you, please reach out and message again if you’re still looking for some help!

1-1 sessions will restart at the end of August, daycare is to be confirmed! But likely the start of September 🫶🏼

Boarding will be extremely limited in the future, strictly one dog at a time, and only dogs known to me, so where possible, please book in some dates to avoid disappointment 🐾 small deposit required as usual!

There is a pause on residential training for a couple of months

Any and all questions please message 💜

Happy Friday 🐾🫶🏼

❌ notice for new clients!! ❌

I can’t work out how to disable the submissions on my website, and with being off on maternity I am not taking clients at the moment and can’t get back to everyone.

WhatsApp’s have a handy wee auto reply, but I am trying to get back to people to let them know. If I don’t get back to you I promise I’m not being rude 😂

Thanks so much 🐾 👶
