Our story

Meet Max — the owner of Mobile Mills — and the reason this service exists.

A young man with glasses, a beanie, and wireless earbuds sitting on the ground, holding a smartphone, with a large brown dog lying next to him, resting its head on the man's lap, against a wall with red and beige surfaces.

Why we started.

Hello, my name is Max, the owner of Mobile Mills. I started this business because I want to help the most spoiled, yet also underserved members of our families, dogs. I have spent the last 4 years in animal welfare, and the last two and a half at the Humane Society for Hamilton County. Hyperactivity is a large reason for dogs ending up in shelters, whether its a high energy puppy who is chewing, or an 8 year old who pulls on the leash.

While a slat mill is not going to fix all behavioral issues, it will help with excess energy and often makes it easier to train your dog. When dogs aren’t hyperactive, they are better able to focus. As the owner of a reactive Australian Shepherd, I know how it feels to not be able to walk freely between 7am and 10pm. Rango will scream at any dog he sees! I often feel like I am not providing enough for his needs. Our goal at Mobile Mills is to help mitigate problems like these before they become a sticking point in your relationship with your dog.

All dogs can benefit from running, and the slat mills provide a safe and easy outlet for your dog. This is especially true in Indiana, where we can have super hot summers (and even spring days!) and icy winters.

What we believe

  • Outline of a first aid kit with a cross symbol, set against a yellow circular background.

    Dogs first, always.

    Every session moves at the dog's pace. Confidence comes before output.

  • A yellow circular background with a black outline of a shield containing a checkmark in the center.

    Safety isn't optional.

    Constant supervision, careful intros, and zero pressure to perform.

  • A black line graph with an upward trending arrow over a yellow circular background.

    Real results.

    Tired bodies, focused minds. Owners notice the difference within a week.

In the background, there is a red Subaru Impreza car, some garage doors, and various tools and bags on the floor.

Who this is for.

• High-drive working breeds who never seem tired

• Reactive dogs who can't safely walk in busy areas

• Senior dogs needing low-impact, joint-friendly movement

• Busy owners who want consistency without the trip

• Recovery cases cleared for controlled exercise
