Mayhem Dog Training

I see the most success with owners who know exactly what their goals are for training their dog. It’s because these owners know what kind of life they want with their dogs and they can stay focused on getting there.

If you’re stuck in the “I just want my dog to stop reacting” line of thinking… try to envision what you want your life with your dog to look like. You may have to think back to why you got your dog in the first place. Was it to go on adventures together? Was it for a camping companion?

Once you know what you’re training for then you’ll have an easier time staying consistent, making time for the tedious training, & persevering through the challenging stuff.

Happy Training Everyone!

A safe space to train your dog…

I work with a lot of reactive and over excited dogs that struggle with dogs, people, wildlife, bicycles etc. I see a lot of dog owners struggling on how to get practice, exposure, and experience without being overwhelmed by a busy park or neighborhood.

Which is why I wanted to create the Neutral Dog Club. This will give you the opportunity to practice in a controlled environment and help other dog owners do the same.

This is not a training class, it is a group meet up that will be facilitated by Mayhem Dog Training. You must be working with or have worked with a trainer in some manner to attend; you do not need to be my student.

All type of dogs are welcome, even if you’re dog is neutral and you just want to work on other things around distractions.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately and I’ve see a few other trainers think this way too…

I’ve always called dog owners who train with me my “clients” but over the years I’ve realized that isn’t really the best way to describe the relationship that I have with those who work with me.

I’m a coach. I’m a teacher. It is so much more than just a one time service.

It’s a support system, it’s a new skill that you have to learn and practice, it’s knowledge that is shared with you.

Some of you may not see it this way, but it’s true. You are more a student than a client.
