Mitch worked with me to train our Samoyed puppy Mackey. He is patient, knowledgeable and always demonstrates each new lesson thoroughly. Our puppy always receives compliments from people we meet as they say he very well behaved. I would highly recommend Mitch to train your dog. He loves dogs!

Dee, thank you for the great review! Mackey has done a phenomenal job, and those public compliments are a direct result of the hard work you’ve put into his training. Teaching the human end of the leash is just as important as the dog, so thank you for being such a great student. Give Mackey some extra praise for me!

We hired Mitch primarliy to help us work on 'coming when called' with our doodle. He was excellent to work with - he provided detailed handouts after each session about the skills we worked on, was responsive between training sessions when we had questions, and was very creative in dealing with some of our dog's frustrating behaviors. The best part is - our dog now comes when called & we feel more confident when taking him outside his normal environment.
We'd work with him again for any other training need we have.

Madison, thank you so much for taking the time to share this! Working on recall with Arbie was such a fun challenge, and it’s awesome to hear he’s coming when called even outside his normal environment now. That consistency across environments is exactly the goal. I really appreciate you and your husband trusting me with his training, and I’d love to work with you both again anytime. Give him a scratch behind the ears for me!

Mitch has been very invaluable in helping us gain control of our mini Bernedoodle puppy Jake and his endless energy. Jake was four months old when Mitch started working with us and within 3-4 sessions Jake knew the basic commands sit, down, stay, and off. We’re now working on the stay command, which has been our biggest challenge. Mitch makes trying easy by coming to our house. We highly recommend him.

Hi Paul, thank you so much for the wonderful review! Jake is an absolute blast to work with, and his endless puppy energy always keeps things fun. You all have done a fantastic job staying consistent between our sessions, which is exactly why he picked up sit, down, and off so quickly. Consistent practice is key, and I know you'll conquer that 'stay' command in no time. Looking forward to our next session!

Mitch has been a WONDERFUL resource and support in training our rescue pup (Shepherd Mix). Our dog responded really well to Mitch's style of training which blends rewards to teach obedience and correction to proof obedience. Mitch was awesome when we trained together but also responded to text messages for help in the moment while we were training on our own and provided lots of material to review so we could work on things between sessions. Highly recommend Mitch and Unlease the Good Dog Training!

Emily, Thanks for the high recommendation! Netti is a rockstar, and a huge part of that success is how dedicated you've been to practicing between our sessions and staying on top of the homework. I'm always happy to help text-troubleshoot when you're out there doing the real work. Keep it up!

This video is awesome! Juno’s heel looks fantastic, and your timing with the treat and affection is spot on. It’s amazing what can happen in just one lesson when you have a great dog and a dedicated handler. Thanks for the review and for showing off all of your guys’ hard work!

Mitch was wonderful to work with! Sonny has made so much progress with behavior and obedience since we have started training. He explains everything clearly and is a wonderful teacher. We’ve noticed such an improvement in listening, focus, and overall manners. I highly recommend Mitch to anyone looking for patient, knowledgeable, and effective dog training.

Thank you Lizzy for taking the time to leave this wonderful review! I am so pleased to hear that your experience has been positive and that Sonny is making such excellent strides with his behavior and obedience. Seeing the improvement in his listening and focus is why I do this work. I genuinely appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing Sonny continue to thrive!
Mitch worked with me to train an overzealous dog. He also taught me a few techniques I can use on my own. Huge change in a short time. Mitch understands and respects dogs and really knows his stuff. Definitely the guy u want to help u with your dog.

Hi Jake, thank you so much for the kind words! It was a pleasure working with you and Roski, and it was great to see him progress through his lessons. He was such a fun pup to work with. Reach out anytime if you need anything down the road!

Our training was excellent!! Mitch made everything so simple and easy to carry out. I have a 4 year old chihuahua mix, and was about ready to give up. Mitch talked to me before he came to my house and I actually implemented some of his suggestions before he came over. He gave me homework after every lesson and I logged my practice sessions. He reads them and we discussed them at the next lesson, My dog and I are still a work in progress, but I am optimistic that we can overcome our issues. We have made great progress, overall!! I would highly recommend Mitch and his business, Unleash the good Dog. He is a miracle worker!! Marty Miller.

Thank you so much, Marty! I'm glad the homework and practice logs are working for you, and I really appreciate how consistently you've stuck with them. Putting in the effort between lessons is what makes the difference, and it shows in the progress you and your dog have made. Keep at it, because a 4 year old dog can absolutely keep improving! It’s been great working with you!

I would highly recommend Unleash The Good Dog Training. Mitch was so patient and understanding. He helped so much with my 8 month old Bernese Mountain Dog. I'm older and so it's a little bit more difficult for me to handle her. She's a handful and either high strung or high energy. Not really sure which it is. Maybe a little of both. LOL but I really appreciate Mitch and all of his instructions and actually showing me how to do the different things. I'm now able to take her for a walk by myself and I feel like I can have people come over without her jumping all over them and being out of control. I can't thank him enough for all of his help. It was well worth the cost and I highly recommend anyone that needs help with their dog to reach out to him.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this, Cheryl. It really means a lot. Bernese Mountain Dogs that age can absolutely be a handful, especially with all that energy and size, so it is great to hear you are now able to walk her on your own and have people over without the jumping. That is exactly the kind of progress I love to see. Thanks again for trusting me to help you both, and for the kind words!

We worked with Mitch on training our 5 month old rescue puppy who was eager to learn and also very smart - sometimes too much so! Mitch was always friendly and helpful, and excellent with training. Our puppy Carbon picked up on things quickly, and he was always willing to give extra tips and tricks when needed. We also especially loved that Mitch sees dogs as members of the family, and helps them learn in a way that still helps them feel happy and loved. We would highly recommend him to anyone!

Thank you so much, Sarah! Carbon was a fun puppy to work with, and I appreciate you putting in the work between lessons. Dogs learn best when they feel safe and connected to their people, so I'm glad that came through. Please keep in touch and let me know how he's progressing. I'd love to hear how he's doing as he grows. Thanks for trusting me with his training, and for recommending me to others.

10/10 would recommend! Our girl was struggling with reactivity both generally and with our new puppy which caused us ALL a LOT of stress! Mitch has been phenomenal with her and our new pup and has truly given us so much peace of mind and encouraged us that our girl was not a lost cause. From our very first consultation, he has come alongside us and taught us how we can work with and help her with absolutely ZERO judgment! I truly cannot recommend him enough, my girl is so much happier and we can actually enjoy our walks now!

Thank you for taking the time to write this Bri! Reading that Mochi is happier and your walks are actually enjoyable now is exactly what makes this job worth it. Reactivity, especially with a new puppy in the mix, is such a stressful thing to work through, and you put in the work right alongside her, which made all the difference. I’m glad you never felt judged along the way, because you shouldn’t be. Boba is lucky to have a big sister who’s learning right alongside him, and an owner who was willing to show up for her. Thanks for trusting me with your pups!

Mitch is very well organized and he was amazing with our puppy. It’s like he has magic powers! The puppy was so excited for his sessions. Mitch provided guidance both in person and in documents that I can refer back to. He taught me and the puppy so much, and set us up for a happy relationship going forward.

We were having trouble with our 10 month old puppy chewing things he wasn’t supposed to chew. Mitch explained we had a very smart, bored Doodle! He then taught us (the humans) how to challenge our dog & teach him good behavior. Mitch made it fun and super easy to understand.

Jun 29th, 2026
Thank you so much, Ann! Bored, smart doodles definitely keep us on our toes. I loved working with you, Mike, and Lynyrd. It sounds like he’s getting the mental outlet he needed. He is such a great dog! Looking forward to hearing how he keeps progressing!

Mitchell has been an incredible help in training my dog, Maisy. She was dumped in an alley. She was sweet- but scared, timid and unsure about everything. I knew I needed professional help, as she clearly had a traumatic start. Within a few weeks of working with Mitchell- she showed huge improvement. She learned “place”, “sit”, polite leash walking (she didn’t appear to be familiar with a leash). With his guidance on training and ability to answer questions & trouble shoot, as well as written tips that he customized for us- she has really blossomed into an amazingly well behaved dog. I would highly recommend working with him!

Jennah, I truly appreciate your recommendation! Maisy’s transformation is a testament to your hard work and consistency with the training. Helping dogs overcome their past and blossom into well-behaved companions is the ultimate goal, and it was a real joy guide you through that process. Thank you for trusting me with Maisy’s training!
