“Joy helped us trained our shy, reactive dog Aspen! She gave us just enough tools at a time to be able to correct some of Aspen’s undesirable behaviors. She made sure to give us plenty of practice time before adding in some other more complicated steps. After about 4 sessions we could totally see a huge improvement on our dog. We can’t recommend Mayhem Dog Training more! Definitely one of the best experiences with training we have ever had!

“We love Joy! We have a very reactive rescue pup who we adore more than anything and Joy has been so helpful. She always has great guidance and is so understanding to our situation. We can tell that she loves dogs just as much as we do 🙂 Millie (our dog) warmed up to her right away and we trust her wisdom! I highly recommend working with her for all your pup training needs.“

FAQ
Why should I choose Mayhem Dog Training?
Our training focuses on the idea that not all dogs are the same. To us, here is no one size fits all training technique. Each dog has their own personality and needs their own training plan. We pride ourselves on tailoring the training to the needs of the dog and the goals of the people.
Where do your private training Lessons occur?
Lessons occur mostly in Lake Tapps, WA. However, some may occur at public locations in the area like Sumner & Auburn, WA. On very rare occasions we conduct lessons in-home for additional fee.
When do lessons occur?
Lessons are scheduled Tuesday through Saturday with morning to evening availability on most days.
What are the vaccine requirements?
Sessions occurring at public locations or at the trainer’s, your dog will need the following vaccinations: rabies, Bordetella, distemper/parvo
Exceptions will be made for puppies too young to receive their vaccinations.
