Overview
Dog Over Breed offers in-home dog training in the Concord area focused on behavior modification, socialization and owner guidance. Sessions cover behavior, obedience, social skills and loose-leash walking.
We help train and mentor people who want to learn how to work with dogs and their owners. That hands-on experience with dogs, owners and future pet-care professionals shapes practical dog-handling guidance you can use every day.

Skills reinforced in daycare and on pack walks, not just in a session.
You learn what your dog needs, so progress continues after we leave.

Dog over breed has been an absolute blessing to us! When we first moved to the area I spent months looking for a reputable dog trainer and dog sitting service for our reactive pitbull. After our first meeting, we knew we finally found someone that we could trust to help us. Mohit and his team not only helped our dog live up to his potential but helped us become better dog owners! Our dog can now walk calmly on a leash without reacting to others, he is able to socialize with other dogs in a friendly way and we are no longer anxious taking him on walks. Dog over Breed is the only place we trust to board our dog. When I tell our dog we are going to Uncle Mohit’s he gets the zoomies and waits at the front door ready to go. Thank you guys for everything! I highly recommend them! You will not regret it!

Dog Over Breed has been with us since we first got Brooklyn. It’s been almost 5 years and they treat her like she is their own. They’ve done an amazing job with her socializing and dog training, and we are lucky we found them when we did! Brooklyn gets happy every time she sees them. For anyone needing assistance with their dog, I highly recommend Dog Over Breed!

Great group of dog experts. These guys understand how the dogs think, what motivates them, and how to change their behavior.
My cattle dog mix is very much a 1-person dog, but he loves his pals at Dog Over Breed and is better behaved with them.
As is often the case, it’s been my inconsistencies as the pet owner that my dog was taking advantage of and getting confused by, so these guys also helped to “train” me on what my pup expects/needs to be his best self.
They have supported us with walks, which are more than the typical walk around the block for 30 min you often get. They pick up and drop off the dogs and it turns out to be a few hour adventure for them.
Doggie daycare is well managed at their facility as is grooming (bath, nails, defur, brushing, etc.).
Communications and timeliness are spot on.
Thanks guys!

FAQ
Where does training take place?
Training visits are one-on-one at your home, so we can work on behavior where it actually happens.
How many visits will we need?
Experienced dog owners often need one visit. Owners who haven’t raised a dog in a while may need up to two, and new dog owners typically need two to three.
Do you work with reactive dogs?
Yes. Behavior modification and socialization are at the center of our work. We’ll talk through your dog’s history during your free phone consultation.
Do you guarantee results?
No. Every dog is different, and progress depends on consistency at home. We focus on building routines, communication and practical skills you can keep using.
How much does training cost?
In-home training is priced per visit. Current rates are shown in our secure booking system as soon as you register. Pricing, eligibility, availability, and service details are confirmed at the time of booking.
Do you offer board and train?
No, and that’s deliberate. A dog trained by our staff during a stay learns to listen to us, not to you. Instead, our one-on-one training teaches you to work with your own dog, so your dog learns to listen to you, and those habits are reinforced in daycare and on walks.
