Out of This World Dog Training is a positive-reinforcement dog trainer serving Columbus and the northern suburbs (Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center), known for coaching owners alongside their dogs and for publishing its prices upfront — rare in this market.

How they train

Training is reward-based — food, play, and praise — with a customized plan for each dog rather than a fixed curriculum. The model is deliberately owner-focused: instead of taking your dog away and returning it "fixed," the trainers teach you the skills, on the principle that lasting results come from understanding, not a reset that fades at home. Clients consistently mention ongoing check-ins after the formal sessions end.

Programs & pricing

Pricing is unusually transparent for this market. Private lessons run $180 (single), $350 (three) or $550 (five); a four-week group obedience series is $200, with $25 drop-in group walks. Board-and-train comes as Puppy Bootcamp ($1,500 / 7 days, under 6 months) or Adult Basics ($2,000 / 10 days, 6+ months), each including pre and post lessons plus group classes; travel boarding ($150/day) is for existing clients. Services span behavior consulting (resource guarding, anxiety, aggression), on- and off-leash work, puppy foundations from 8 weeks, group puppy socialization through the critical 8–16-week window, and weekend pack walks.

Experience & credentials

Lead trainer Alex Eaton is certified through Animal Behavior College (graduated with honors). New clients begin with an assessment, receive a customized plan, train with the trainer present, and leave each session with home-practice guidance plus follow-up check-ins.
