Kelsi is a dedicated and passionate dog trainer based in Middletown, CT, who transitioned into full-time training after serving as an animal control officer.

Kelsi specializes in behavioral modification, tackling challenging behaviors to help dogs and their owners achieve harmony and happiness. She has extensive experience working with a variety of breeds, but her heart lies with her three American Pit Bull Terriers. Together, they participate in a range of exciting dog sports that enhance their quality of life and strengthen their bond.
