SocializationProgram details
Early socialization is essential for our pups to learn how to read cues and body language, when to play, how to play and when to stop.
Our puppy socialization classes are the perfect first start as they take place in a safe controlled environment in the presence of a dog trainer.
Whilst the pups play and learn our trainer will ensure everything stays nice and polite as well as speak to you about body language, pit falls of over socialization or any pup related questions you may have. · Listed price: [object Object]

Mahalia and Karl were fantastic with our new puppy, Goose! We did in-home private trainings so our whole family including our daughter could participate. They were both so kind, patient and clear with the training skills. They were very understanding when our daughter got distracted during training and stayed patient with her. They both have such a positive attitudes and sweet dispositions with dogs. They showed great professionalism and were on time for appointments. I look forward to continuing to work with them as we may need tune-ups for our dog as he ages. Highly recommend using Mutts and Munch for your training needs!

We enrolled our pug in a 6-week training course with Mahalia when he turned a year old, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. She didn’t just train our dog—she taught US how to properly train him, which made all the difference.
We were able to correct some behaviors while also building a strong foundation with basic training. The experience was incredibly valuable and something we’ll carry with us for the rest of our pup’s life.
If you have a puppy, I highly recommend reaching out to Mutts n Munch for their basic training classes. Totally worth it!

We appreciate Karl and team so much for their time and expertise with training our rescue dog, Hubble. Hubble’s main training goals are with separation anxiety. With six sessions, Karl was able to arm us with tools and methods to help Hubble become a less anxious dog and calmer when strangers are nearby. Hubble can now stay for up to 12 minutes quietly at home, which is a huge improvement from him being upset when we would just walk to the door. We appreciate Karl and his team so much and highly recommend them for personalized dog training.

I can't say enough good things about Mutts + Munch. Karl and team helped us introduce a new puppy into our home with our aggressive 10yr old French Bull Dog Hudson. The team created 5 sessions of private training for us, using positive, non aggressive dog training techniques. We got homework after each session and worked with Hudson everyday. Hudson and our new baby Mable are now able to cohabitate without any issues. Hudson has been dog aggressive for a long time and we had doubts this would work, but now, Hudson is a new dog! Karl was gentle, confident, knew exactly what to do with Hudson. WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR MUTTS + MUNCH! THANK YOU TO A GREAT TEAM!

Mahalia was an absolutely amazing trainer for our boy Clover. He was a little crazy so she had some assistance so we are also grateful for sage and Karl for taking extra time with clover.
Clover has progressed great through the 6 weeks with Mutts + Munch training program. I highly recommend them!
