Kasten's Dog Training Inc - Bristol, Indiana

We feel very fortunate to have found Kasten’s. We were traveling to Middlebury for several days of work on our RV and needed a place for our beloved dog to stay. We appreciate the friendly help that we received both on the phone and in person. Thanks so much for taking good care of Spike. Kasten’s really cares about their clients! Spike thanks you, too.

If you were to tell me a year ago that I would be calmly walking my 150lb, 6year old German Shepherd, or don’t have to call the vet when I’m in the parking lot to make sure room is ready and there are no dogs inside, I would have never believed you. Steve and his team were amazing and have truly changed our life with our dog. I thought he was too old and too set in his ways to train. We discovered the first time we boarded him, extreme separation anxiety and he absolutely could not be around other dogs. And walking him? Forget it. He walked me.
I called a lot of places with in a 3 hour distance who claimed to work on anxiety/dog aggression. Out of all of them, Kasten’s was the only place I instantly felt like knew exactly what I was dealing with and was confident they could help. Steve was the ONLY trainer who not only called me back, but spent at least an hour explaining all the ways he would handle my dog and how he would overcome the many concerns we had with our dog.
I can now walk my dog calmly and not in complete fear. I can now take him to public parks and to PetSmart, and the vet with no fear of dog aggression or not being able to control him. I am also incredibly confident in being able to plan a vacation and know that he can be boarded there and they know how to handle him (my parents would always have to drive 9 hrs to come dog sit and could never board).
I am so thankful for the opportunity Steve and his AMAZING staff (literally, they are all awesome!) have given us. They have given us our life back and given Blitz a much better life as we are are now able to get our dog the proper exercise needed. FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS, THANK YOU SO INCREDIBLY MUCH!! ❤️

Pascal went to a board and train for 28 days to work on listening to my partner and to work on his fear issues and recall. He's my service dog and already was a good boy but now he's amazing. We went to my sister's wedding this weekend and he blew us all away. He worked so well and held his down stays amazingly. Even around the loud speakers he didn't show any signs of fear. I definitely would recommend Kasten's. The staff is super friendly and definitely seem to know what they're doing.

I loved the knowledgeable team at Kastens, they were never condescending with their training and are very loving and gentle with the dogs. My dog was there for about a month and completed program 3 peak performance, she was already a delight, but now she makes me very proud to take with me and show off. People stop me to comment how well behaved she is for a pup.

Goose is also thankful for her training and growth, thanks Kastens!!

We took our Mini Aussie there for training. He was protective over his home and didn’t like being around people.

After our training sessions, we have no issues with people coming over or even encountering strangers. The Kastens team did an amazing job with him, they were able to assist him in ways that were positive to him. The staff also helped us learn how to calm him down and redirect him in situations that would previously set him off.

I highly recommend Kasten’s programs.

Such a great experience! I enrolled my puppy into puppy preschool and she has gained so much confidence over the last couple of weeks! The staff is super professional and respectful!

Our dog is definitely on the up and up with his training thanks to Kasten's. They are extremely professional and their trainers are absolutely amazing. Our dog was a hard one to break but they were able to get him on the correct path. It's up to us now since he's home from training but the materials they gave us and the knowledge should help continue him on his new path. They are the best in this area for sure.

I highly recommend Steve. I have been very pleased with the service my dogs have received for the past 4 years! My dogs have been trained, boarded and treated as if they were his own. It is very comforting to know my dogs are in wonderful hands while away.
