Support your dog trainer by sharing your story

Kate Bigger, CDBC is a Boston based animal behavior consultant and trainer who specializes in helping people with dogs that need a little extra understanding. From aggressive to terrified, she has helped a wide variety of dogs with problematic behaviors for the past 18 years. She specializes in helping change the feelings and behavior of dogs who bark and lunge on-leash as well as dogs that guard things like food bowls, couches, an old toy that nobody cared about until this morning, dogs with big feelings about being left alone and a variety of aggression issues.

Kate is also a passionate sport dog trainer; specifically scent work, competition obedience and agility. She is a seven-time National Agility Invitational Qualifier, multiple National Agility Finalist, who has racked up six agility championships on three different recycled dogs. Kate has had years of experience training happy and confident sport and city living pet dogs.

As the president of Performance Scent Dogs, a national sport scent detection organization, she has traveled from Alaska to Florida to Canada to judge and fine-tune hundreds of scent work teams. Having seen dogs lives transformed for the better so many times through scent work, and the profound impact it makes on the dog-human relationship, she is dedicated to helping grow scent work. She mentors scent work instructors and offers free classes to foster dogs.
