One-on-one dog training

Private training starts with a phone call, then a plan.

Private coaching is for the dog problem that needs a closer look: leash pulling, focus, recall, reactivity, aggression, biting, off-leash reliability, confidence, or search-style foundations.

Send the request and Mitchell will call to schedule.

Step 1

Send the request

Tell Mitchell what is going on.

Step 2

We talk first

Mitchell calls to learn more about your dog.

Step 3

Schedule then train

You pick the first session together on the call.

What we can work on

Loose leash walking, recall, focus, reactivity, aggression, biting, confidence, impulse control, off-leash foundations, or beginner search-style work.

What you get

A practical plan built around your dog, your goals, and the situations that keep repeating.

How payment works

Payment is due on the day of training by cash, Zelle, or Venmo. Missed private lessons require at least 24 hours advance cancellation.

Private training signup

Request private training.

Send your dog’s info and what you need help with. Mitchell will call you, then schedule the first session from his calendar.
