Helping dog owners take their dog from reactive, restless, and stressful to calm, focused, and fun to be around.
Imagine taking your dog anywhere — and actually enjoying it?
Whether your dog pulls like a sled team, barks at anything that moves, or can’t settle at home — we help you build real-world skills through relationship-based training — so your dog sticks by you on trails, the couch, patios, and wherever life takes you.

After game‑based training with Samaya, my once‑reactive Maltipoo Marvin finally focuses on me instead of barking at other dogs on walks.

Before working with Mission Paws, I avoided walks. My dog would lunge at everything. Now? We do trails together. She checks in. She listens. It’s like we’re finally a team.

I thought I had a stubborn dog. Turns out, he just didn’t understand what I wanted. These games changed everything. Zero punishment, and now he comes when I call!
