About Mindful Training

Mindful Training is a dog training service based around teaching the pet parents how to be a mindful dog trainer for their own dog. We teach you basic obedience, troubleshoot any difficult behaviors, and practice with you all along the way. We also include daily training notes so you can refer back to our sessions at any point. We begin our service with a consultation at your residence (or remotely via webcam). The consult usually lasts 30min-1hr. The consult is used to discuss your goals, concerns, and answer all of your training and behavior questions. We then briefly discuss our modality, "how" we train. Lastly we discuss our logistics of service. If you decide our service is appropriate for you we can schedule a training session.

My dog Willie and I have been working with Mindful Training for almost six months. I had been training Willie myself for months, but I'm so glad I reached out to Josh. Willie was doing well with what I had taught him while we were at home, but when we were out on walks, at a store, or even in the front yard, he was very distracted and wouldn't take commands. He wouldn't even take treats! Through working with Josh, Willie has made a lot of improvement. I have learned how to get Willie to listen in a lot of different surroundings, and while he is a young excitable Boxer and we're still a work in progress, he is doing leaps and bounds better since we found Mindful Training. All of the help Josh has given us has been very positive. Willie loves Josh! I also appreciate Josh's professionalism. He is great with communication, he is punctual, and he is always friendly and respectful. I also love that he emails training notes to me after our sessions so I can look back and remember everything we went over that day. Willie and I highly recommend Josh and Mindful Training!

THE BEST trainers and pet sitters - they have worked wonders with our anxious, high energy dog. He is now more confident, knows all of the basic commands plus we have worked on agility, fun tricks and getting along with our resident cats. He loves both Toni and Joshua and has a great time with them when we have to be away. Bonus - the prices are so reasonable

Joshua with Mindful Training first started working with Clementine, my fearful and reactive little chihuahua, and now is working with her new sister Rosie, also a scared and anxious chihuahua. Clementine now responds to basic instructions and can heel like a pro. Joshua is very gentle and patient and meets these little dogs where they are (because believe me, they are a lot!). He is very intuitive when it comes to canine behavior and knows how to bring out the best in these little dogs. I also have tools to help them in anxiety-inducing situations and have learned about how to better deal with their behavior. We're very thankful for Joshua's training and instruction!

I am so happy that we chose Mindful Training for our Davy. This experience was so positive and Joshua was great! He really listened to us and made every class a great experience!

This was the perfect training for my 1.5yr old pit bull girly. We are in an apartment complex and Toni came to us and we trained at home and around our complex. The notes Toni emailed were so helpful and clear and really helped us keep up with her training at home. The best investment I’ve made with my dog so far!
