Mountainside Mutts is an exciting & unique dog training option for pet parents in Rutland County, Vermont.
We offer day training, private coaching, and group classes to help you raise an incredible companion dog, and we use only humane & force-free dog training methods. Constantly telling a dog what not to do is tiresome. Wouldn’t it be easier if you didn’t have to nag them all the time? Teaching a dog what you want them to do is far more effective and fun. In fact, based on current scientific evidence, the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior recommends that only reward-based training methods be used for dog training, including the treatment of behavior problems.
Your dog is an individual and training should be customized to your wants and needs.
Mountainside Mutts is pleased to offer modern dog training services in Rutland, Vermont. Our offerings include private in-person coaching, group lessons, or virtual sessions.
