Diane and Gabe Gatchalian, both passionate and experienced dog lovers, have extensive experience with various breeds, temperaments, and ages.
They have a background in working with dogs to overcome behavioral issues and master basic obedience skills.
Their expertise was honed under a certified dog trainer, and they have volunteered for several years with Mostly Mutts Animal Rescue in Kennesaw, Georgia.
In addition to their private training client base, Diane and Gabe have been part of the rescue dog training team with Mostly Mutts University since 2017, working with challenging dogs rescued by the shelter.
Their work has successfully improved behaviors that might otherwise hinder a dog from being adopted or put a dog at risk of losing its home.
They also teach an in-shelter obedience training class for new adopters, setting families up for success as dog owners.
Having fostered rescued dogs in their home, requiring assessment and rehabilitation, Diane and Gabe have gained extensive experience in working with a variety of behavioral issues.
They firmly believe that every dog has the potential to improve behavior and learn new skills with the right training.
My Loyal Dog Training aims to help every dog reach its full potential.
With a focus on addressing diverse behavioral issues in dogs of all sizes and ages, My Loyal Dog Training has worked with challenges such as reactivity to other dogs, undesirable behavior towards people, guarding behavior, fear-based behavior, and socialization for dogs with limited interaction with people or other dogs.
Their practical approach and hands-on experience make them valuable partners in addressing and improving canine behavior.

Group sessions offer a communal setting where your dog learns general obedience alongside other dogs. In contrast, private sessions grant focused attention, making them perfect for targeted behavior modifications or individualized training agendas.
All our trainers are committed to positive reinforcement techniques and steer clear of any harsh or punitive methods. Their primary goal is to make training a joyous journey for you and your dog.
Results depend on factors like your dog's nature, the specific behaviors in question, and your training consistency. While many clients observe improvements in just a few sessions, it's crucial to be patient and persistent.
Reach out to the trainer you're interested in to discuss possibly attending a session. It's a great way to get a feel for their approach and see if it aligns with your expectations.
