Our Story
Sean and I are incredibly proud of our expansion to Austin. After spending 15 years in business, with two offices under our belts, it was time to establish a third major location. In order to do so, we needed to partner with someone and Alexis Mitchell was our first choice and one of the best business decisions we’ve ever made. Alexis was hired several years prior after working extensively in applied animal behavior. She grew up in a house with 7 dogs, earned her Bachelor’s degree in Wildlife Biology, completed a wildlife training internship in Australia, competed in the American Kennel club, volunteered with the 4-H dog project, trained Lipizzaner stallions and toured the entire Northeast with them, worked in the Southeastern Guide Dogs puppy raising program and helped develop training protocols all before turning 23! Sean and I mentored her and she served as dog trainer at our Kansas City office. Later, Alexis was recruited to help establish our Houston office. She moved to Houston with us and continued learning under our guidance. Soon she was promoted and worked as a training supervisor, later managing our entire Houston location. When we wanted to expand to Austin, Alexis was once again excited and ready to help our brand grow. We saw in her the same love and passion for the work we do. Not only that, but she was extremely skilled in that work. Now, with a team of trainers and our partnership, we are so excited for what the future holds here in Austin and cannot wait to share the Beyond the Dog training difference with you.
