Kate has been a nationally known competitor and trainer since the mid 1990's. She began teaching for Contact Point Agility Center in 1999, and 2004 she opened DrivenDogs Agility.
Kate is currently located in Camarillo, California. She began competing in dog agility in 1992, at the age of six years old. She currently has a twelve year old Shetland Sheepdog, Heisey (retired), a seven year old Border Collie, Quick, and a four year old Border Collie, Driven.
Heisey and Kate blazed the path for many Junior Handler teams in the agility world. They are the first Junior Handler MACh and MACh2 agility team and placed 5th at the 1999 AKC National Agility Championships. Heisey and Kate competed at the 2002 ESPN Great Outdoor Games and in 2002 won the ESPN Sporting Dog Challenge.
As an adult, Kate and Quick won the 2006 AKC 20" National Agility Championships in Tampa, FL. In 2006, Kate and Quick were selected at members of the IFCS/United States Dog Agility World Team, to compete at the World Championships in the Netherlands. At the World Championships, Kate and Quick earned 2 Gold and 3 Silver Medals.
Driven is also earning national recognition. In 2005, Driven won the USDAA 22" NorthWest Regional Grand Prix Finals. Driven competed at the 2005 USDAA World Championships where she was a 22" Grand Prix of Dog Agility and Dog Agility Masters Team Tournament Finalist and was the 22" Jumpers World Champion.
Along with her own dogs, Kate has shown a number of dogs for clients. These dogs help to illustrate Kate's breed diversity, as a trainer and handler.
Kate uses fun and energetic methods for teaching dog agility. Agility is a fun sport based upon your relationship with your dog and a strong foundation; therefore, she focuses on building a strong, positive relationship between you and your dog, and a solid understanding of the foundation and handling needed to succeed. Kate believes all teams need to have a strong understanding of what each team member expects from the other; so she focuses on building the dog's independence and complete understanding of obstacle performance and the handler's consistency when handling. When it comes to handling, Kate strives for complete understanding and communication between the dog and handler for the most efficient path.
