Our Team
Jon Somers
Everyday dog owner. Founder of Trail & Bone.
Jon started Trail & Bone after years of struggling with his own reactive and aggressive dog, Gibson.
He knows what it feels like to dread walks, avoid triggers, feel judged by strangers, and wonder if your dog will ever get better.
That experience is why Trail & Bone exists.
Besides running the day to day — Jon’s role is to make sure our training is clear, practical, and works for everyday dog owners like him. Not professional trainers. Not behaviorists. Real people with real dogs who need real world results.
Matt Cochran
TWC-Certified Professional Dog Trainer
Matt Cochran is the trainer and instructor behind Resolving Reactivity.
He specializes in transforming reactive and aggressive dogs to be stable, confident, and reliable in the real world.
Matt’s approach is direct, fair, and built around one core belief:
Dogs do best when they're truly fulfilled and trust their owners' authority.
With Trail & Bone, Matt teaches his training system, demonstrates the work with real dogs, and helps owners understand what to do, when to do it, and why it works.
The Support Team
Behind the scenes, our team helps with course access, billing, support, updates, and making sure members get what they need.
Trail & Bone would not be able to function without them!
