When you enroll for an evaluation, you'll receive personalized attention and expert guidance from one of our professional dog trainers. The trainer will thoroughly assess your dog's behavior, temperament, and training needs. They will take the time to comprehend your objectives and concerns while assisting you in setting goals for your dogs training plan. Finally, your trainer will guide you through the process of determining what services best fit your needs.
An evaluation is required before scheduling any of these lessons, to ensure we’re setting you and your dog up for success. Our 1-hour private lessons offer flexibility—you can meet at the MuttSchool Training Center, your home, or another location that fits your goals. A travel fee is paid directly to your trainer for any sessions held outside the MuttSchool training center.

Mutts in Motion • 30-minute private lessons $65.00
Mutts in Motion is ideal for dogs of all ages and temperaments. This 10-lesson program uses off-leash games and patterns to teach your dog to focus and engage with you. By meeting the needs of our dogs both physically and emotionally, we can teach calm behaviors and improve impulse control. This helps dogs make better choices and think before barking and lunging at distractions.
Mutts in Motion Leave & Learn is a drop-off training option that lets your dog work one-on-one with a professional trainer while you go about your day. These targeted sessions focus on building real-life skills, reducing problem behaviors, and reinforcing calm and confident responses—all without your need to be present. Each session is tailored to your dog’s current needs and includes progress updates, allowing you to continue learning at home.
Does your dog hesitate on new surfaces, shy away from unfamiliar objects, or seem unsure in new environments? Or maybe they’re the adventurous type, always looking for the next fun challenge! Each confidence course is built like an interactive playground filled with textures, sounds, balance work, and creative challenges. It’s safe, fun, and totally pressure-free. From puppy to seniors, cautious to the fearless, all dogs can benefit from this fun and rewarding experience!
Confidence Course | Leave and Learn is a structured drop-off program that helps dogs build confidence and independence. Dogs engage in tailored activities on our Confidence Course, addressing challenges such as unfamiliar environments, interactions with new people and dogs, handling and grooming sensitivities, and various physical obstacles. This comprehensive approach fosters resilience, alleviates anxiety, and promotes positive learning experiences.
At MuttSchool, we don’t just train behaviors—we support your dog’s whole well-being. Because here’s the truth: a stressed, anxious, or unwell dog can’t learn effectively, no matter how consistent your training plan is. That’s why our MuttMind & Body sessions go beyond obedience to support the whole dog—body, mind, and spirit.
We blend a powerful mix of wellness therapies, including calming sensory work, dog-safe essential oils, and pheromones. Each session is carefully designed to regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and help dogs feel safe, grounded, and capable of learning.
This service is especially helpful for dogs recovering from surgery or illness, those with chronic stress, reactivity, fear, anxiety, or overstimulation, and even dogs needing weight loss or fitness support. Whether your dog struggles to focus in training, panics at the vet, or doesn’t seem like themselves, we can help them feel better—and learn better.
Mutt Mind & Body • PEMF and Red Light Therapy $60.00

MuttMind & Body • Treadmill & Canine Fitness $60.00
When dogs struggle with behavior, we don’t just ask what they’re doing—we ask why. Often, the answer lies in their body. Just like people, dogs need healthy movement, balanced energy, and physical confidence to feel and function their best.
Our MuttMind & Body fitness sessions are designed to do exactly that.
Using our professional canine treadmill and fitness equipment, we gently guide your dog through structured movement exercises that build physical strength, improve focus, and support emotional regulation. Whether it’s walking on the treadmill, balancing on platforms, or learning how to move through a carefully designed course, your dog will gain body awareness, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment.
This is not a high-intensity workout—it’s mindful movement with purpose.
These sessions are especially helpful for:
Dogs recovering from injury, surgery, or medical treatment
Dogs who are overweight or under-conditioned
High-energy dogs who need a productive outlet
Reactive, anxious, or overstimulated dogs learning to regulate and focus
Puppies and seniors working on coordination, balance, and confidence
Every session is tailored to your dog’s needs. Our goal is not just a well-behaved dog, but a well dog—one who feels strong, safe, and ready to learn.
MuttMind and Body • Reiki & Shamanic Energy Healing $60.00
At MuttSchool, we believe training a “good dog” starts with nurturing a well-balanced one. That’s why our MuttMind & Body program includes holistic energy work designed to support your dog’s emotional and physical well-being from the inside out.
Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or hands-near) energy healing practice that promotes deep relaxation, reduces stress, and helps rebalance your dog’s nervous system. It can be especially helpful for dogs experiencing anxiety, fear, physical discomfort, or trauma recovery.
Shamanic energy work goes a step deeper—helping release stuck energy, past emotional imprints, or experiences your dog may be holding onto. This non-invasive, intuitive practice can create powerful shifts in behavior and confidence, especially in dogs who’ve had a rough start or struggle with behavior blocks that traditional training can’t quite explain.
This work is especially powerful for recently rescued dogs, who may still be processing big transitions, unknown past experiences, or the emotional weight of starting over. Energy healing provides comfort, grounding, and a sense of safety—creating a foundation for healing before training even begins.
Whether your dog is recovering from surgery, adjusting to a big life change, or just needs help settling into their own skin, energy work offers a calming and restorative experience. And because your dog doesn’t have to “do” anything during a session, it’s ideal even for sensitive or overwhelmed dogs who need healing without pressure.
Sometimes, the first step to better behavior isn’t more training—it’s helping your dog feel safe enough to learn.
