    Dog Training Elite and trainers Marcy and Mitch are absolutely incredible!!! 💛🐾 The team at Dog Training Elite is so professional, patient, and insanely knowledgeable. They didn’t just work with Albus, they taught us how to confidently lead him and actually understand what he needed. Their training was structured but still personalized to him, and they really focused on getting to the root of his anxiety and reactivity. And now?! Albus is calm, responsive, and SO confident 🥹✨ He walks right past other dogs without any issues, follows commands beautifully, and is genuinely such a joy to take anywhere. I actually look forward to outings now instead of stressing about them. The transformation has truly been life-changing for our family. If you’re even a little unsure about training, this is your sign. Dog Training Elite is worth every single penny. We are beyond grateful and could not recommend them more!!! 🐶💫

    Today My dog Nova and I did our Public Access Test. Our trainer Renee Juliano a highly trained Dog Handler with Dog Training Elite. This test is to ensure that dogs that have public access are stable. The Bottom Line of this test is that Nova demonstrates she is safe to be in public and that I demonstrates I has control of Nova at all times. Our final Result was "Pass." Renee is a valuable quality skill in her trade nothing but the best.

    Off to a bit of a rough start being transferred between trainer. Then got Alina who earned my dog’s trust and now he loves lessons and works hard. We have made great progress and are almost ready for our trip to Utah. Cannot say enough great things about her.

    Ali’s been great with me and my dog Spike, who has “reacted” negatively to people and other dogs, but he likes Ali (almost), as much as me, and that says a lot. Ali is good at communicating with both of us, and we’ve made significant progress with obedience and recall, and we’re working on getting Spike more comfortable around other dogs. I’ve been very happy with Ali as our trainer.

    Cannot be more thankful to have found Dog Training Elite and Scott and Jen. After some bad interactions left Walter on edge, nervous, and reactive, Scott and Jen gave me the tools to help build Walter’s confidence and to help communicate with him when he’s nervous or on edge! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

    My puppy is currently being trained by Dog Training Elite, and our experience has been great. Ali is our trainer and she is phenomenal at what she does. My dog gets beyond excited to see Ali every single time she arrives for our sessions. She knows exactly what she is doing, is so loving with my dog but also gets him to do precisely what she wants him to do. It’s incredible to watch him work with her. You can tell she really takes pride in her trade and also loves dogs so much and truly wants to see the dog and their owner succeed in their training.

    Ali has been awesome working with my mini dachshund, Lucia. From the beginning, she has been patient, intentional, and genuinely invested in helping Lucia grow. Lucia has made so much progress since working with her. Ali has been training her in service tasks, which is her specialty, and it has been amazing to watch Lucia build confidence and truly step into her work. You can tell Ali really understands how to train service dogs with clarity and purpose, and she takes the time to make sure both the dog and the handler understand what is being asked. Her group classes have also been such a great experience. They are challenging in the best way and push both the dogs and the handlers to think and stay engaged. She keeps everyone on their toes and creates real life scenarios that make a big difference in how reliable the dogs become. I am so grateful for the care, structure, positive energy, and knowledge Ali brings to her training. Lucia would not be where she is without her, and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for serious, intentional training.

    Our training experience with Dog Training Elite honestly changed our lives. I feel like I finally understand my dog instead of just reacting to behaviors I didn't know how to handle before. The trainings always felt supportive and realistic, and we saw real progress that carried into daily life. I am so incredibly grateful for the patience, clarity, and care throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend David and Nikki enough.

    Megan is a very upbeat trainer and is excellent with my stubborn puppy. She explains everything and takes the time to answer questions. She is patient, kind and caring. She corrects you in a kind manner and explains and demonstrates what she is doing. I love the compassion that Megan shows when she works with Gus, she is very positive and upbeat.

    It was scary for us to commit to spend so much money on training our dog. But after even the first session it felt so so worth it. Our doggy is better behaved and so much more fun to have around. Deidre clearly loooves what she does and always brings so much good information and energy. If you have an overreactive doodle like us you will only regret not doing it sooner!
