Kasten’s Dog Training recently had the honor of being featured in the June edition of Lakes East Magazine, a publication celebrating outstanding local businesses. This recognition highlights the dedication and passion that Kasten’s Dog Training brings to clients (both canine and human!). Check out some of what they had to say below!
Where it Began
The story of Kasten’s Dog Training begins with Steve Kasten, who started his career in the corporate world. After spending years in a completely different industry, he decided to turn his passion for animals into a career. In 2006, he took the leap, and Kasten’s Dog Training was born. Since then, the business has grown into a family-run establishment in Elkhart County, Indiana. Here, they serve a variety of clients and their canine companions. Steve’s journey is an inspiring example of following one’s passion and making a difference in the community.
Kasten’s focuses on providing balanced training, which means they adapt their methods to fit each dog’s needs and temperament. The trainers at Kasten’s understand that every dog is unique, requiring individualized training methods rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. Their goal is to instill confidence in the dogs they train, making them not only obedient but also more comfortable in their environment. This holistic approach to training is one of the reasons they have been recognized as a standout business in their community.
Specialized Programs
The programs offered by Kasten’s Dog Training are varied and designed to cater to different behavioral challenges. For example, they provide residency training. Dogs stay on-site for a set period, receiving intensive training with daily, structured guidance. This program is ideal for owners who may not have the time for regular lessons and need quick, effective results. Kasten’s also offers private lessons, group classes, and specialized puppy programs. Private lessons provide focused, one-on-one attention, while group classes help dogs socialize.
Kasten’s puppy programs focus on the critical developmental stages in a young dog’s life. Early training is essential to shaping a dog’s behavior and ensuring it grows up to be well-mannered and socialized. The puppy programs at Kasten incorporate basic obedience, socialization, and exposure to new environments, all of which are important in preventing behavioral issues down the road. These programs lay the foundation for a lifetime of good habits and positive interactions. This helps puppies grow into confident and well-adjusted adult dogs.
