Primal Mountain K9 LLC is a dog training business based in Charleston, WV, led by trainer Hannah, who offers compassionate, mindset-based training focused on establishing leadership and a permission-based lifestyle for dogs. The program uses low-level e-collar stimulation alongside daily training regimens to teach five core commands: sit (stay), down (stay), heel, place, and come, along with crate and car manners, threshold control, and reducing unwanted behaviors like jumping, barking, lunging, and counter surfing. Training is delivered through an intensive 15-day board and train program, with optional extensions for anxiety or reactivity, and includes daily video updates, three public outings, and a go-home session. Owners are required to continue reinforcing training at home to maintain progress. The business also offers boarding and structured daycare exclusively for dogs who have completed e-collar training through Hannah or another approved trainer. Hannah emphasizes individualized attention by working with only one dog at a time, ensuring customized training that preserves each dog’s personality while improving behavior and confidence.

Hannah’s approach is rooted in her personal experience transforming her own high-energy dogs into calm, well-mannered companions, and she has completed a shadow program with Almost Heaven K9. Her clients report dramatic improvements in obedience, reduced stress at home, and the ability to take their dogs confidently into public spaces. The program is designed for dogs 6 months and older who are crate-trained and up-to-date on vaccinations, but does not accept dogs with a bite history.

Primal Mountain K9 is known for its high level of communication, daily social media updates, and ongoing post-training support, helping owners sustain long-term success with their dogs.

Accomplishments

Hannah has been training dogs for over 4 years and completed a Shadow Program with Almost Heaven K9 in January 2022. She has successfully trained numerous dogs with severe behavioral issues, including reactivity, anxiety, and leash pulling, transforming them into calm, obedient companions.
