Your website mostly talks about dogs. How do you approach behavioral modification with horses or cats? What other animals do you work with?

As dogs are genetically hard-wired by centuries of dog pack dynamics, horses are genetically hard-wired to herd behaviors. Relocation is particularly traumatic for horses as they form a strong bond with the people who care for them and other animals they live with. Cats, on the other hand, are more self-sufficient and solitary.

A happy day for them will include some time away from people and other pets. Understanding the genetic framework that underlies the animal’s perceptions and behavior is an important first step to increasing communication with that animal and bringing about remedies to behavior issues.

Katherine works with all animals, large or small, warm or cold-blooded, to increase communication and harmony and bring the animal’s environment more in sync with its intrinsic needs.

    Animal Behaviorist
    Animal Psychology Center in Philip, South Dakota, is a pet psychology center owned by animal behaviorist and trainer, Katherine Andrews. Services and training are available in Rapid City, SD, and many desperate owners have traveled in from other states for her specialized expertise.

    My passion is to train and rehabilitate dogs with behavioral issues. Some even call me a "dog whisperer" thanks to my ability to work through particularly tough behavior problems and help with aggressive dogs, even when other trainers have failed and owners have nearly given up.

    Through my early love for animals, I developed it into a lifetime career and commitment. Backed with 20 years of animal training experience, I take pride in making life better for people and pets through my animal psychology services.
