REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE. REAL-WORLD RESULTS.
Before founding Belleville Dog Training, Mitchell served as a Search & Rescue K9 handler, training dogs to locate missing people in challenging environments.
Today, he brings that same hands-on experience to everyday dog training, helping dogs build confidence, reliable obedience, and the freedom to explore more of the world.

Great trainer and great results!
Mitchell was excellent. When we started, our Doberman Lily would pull so hard on her harness to get to other dogs and animals that it was basically ripping off her body. Now, if she sees another dog, she looks back at me and comes over, or she just goes back to sniffing and doing normal dog things. Mitchell doesn’t just train dogs to stay glued to your...

Mitchell was excellent. When we started, our Doberman Lily would pull so hard on her harness to get to other dogs and animals that it was basically ripping off her body. Now, if she sees another dog, she looks back at me and comes over, or she just goes back to sniffing and doing normal dog things. Mitchell doesn’t just train dogs to stay glued to your side and robotically obey commands. He teaches both the dog and the owner how to let the dog be a dog while still being obedient enough to stay safe and out of trouble. Thanks to his training, I can now walk Lily fully off-leash at night and on parks and hikes. We’re still working on daytime city walks and busy traffic areas, but with everything he’s taught us, I expect to feel comfortable with that in another 2–3 weeks. He was always responsive and helpful with questions, and stayed upbeat and supportive the whole time. Highly recommend.
