K9to5

K9to5 is a dog training practice run by Christine Kelly that focuses on service dogs, emotional support dogs and therapy dogs. Training is customized to each handler, with work on psychiatric service dog tasks such as PTSD support, mobility assistance, seizure alert, and public access field trips. The practice also trains therapy dogs for visits to hospitals, libraries and similar settings, and uses science-based, reward-based methods.

Sessions are offered one on one in person or over Zoom, and group classes are available for a lower cost. Christine has no facility address; the practice works in the field and by appointment, and she asks new clients to reach out by text rather than email. The business serves the Colorado Springs area.
