    I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dog Training Elite. I had Amber for all of my training sessions and she was professional and personable the entire time. She taught me so much! I learned a great deal, likely more than my dog who was an absolute natural and took to the training extremely well. I sincerely feel that my bond with my dog has been made so much stronger after having worked with Dog Training Elite. I have no problems taking my dog into public spaces or walking her. Before training she would pull and try to sniff everything possible. My dog seems so much more regulated and in control. The training has been worth every penny!

    Dog Training Elite has been amazing to work with. The trainers explain everything they are asking you to do and why. They have worked with our schedules as well. We tried online training during COVID with another company, boarding training with another, but no one has really helped us with our anxious Frenchie as much as this team has so far. We are now excited to try group training which we would not have considered a few months ago!

    We were so lucky to find Dog Training Elite of Northern Utah! I knew we needed a service dog, but didn't know who to trust. When we started our puppy with them, I saw big improvements even in the first week, and now we have a truly dependable service dog. They really care, and are extremely professional. Zero complaints, only gratitude. Would not hesitate to send anyone to them.

    Truly if you want to learn how to work with your canine companion the best Deidre is who you’d want to work with. I have always wanted help and guidance on how to work with my dog better to achieve the best for the both of us. I really look forward to every opportunity that we get to learn from Deidre. There’s not enough kind things I could say for how thankful and excited I am to work with someone so talented kind and more than amazing.

    During the consultation Daidre was very thorough when discussing what to expect, what is acceptable, and where the dog was coming from. I have looked for a dog trainer willing to come to my house to address the territorial aggression and that is just what we found. I am looking forward to working with Dog Training Elite.

    We have two dogs—one 6 years old and one 2—and before training, neither of them had any structure. Unfortunately, they picked up each other’s bad habits to the point where walks were stressful and nearly impossible. We couldn’t control them, they barked constantly when outside, and they wouldn’t listen to commands once there were any distractions. That’s completely changed now. With simple, consistent commands, they actually listen. Walks have become enjoyable instead of overwhelming, and we can confidently have them outside without nonstop barking. They’re calmer, more responsive, and overall much happier—and so are we. The time and money we invested were absolutely worth it, and we’re committed to continuing the work to reinforce these great habits. We truly cannot thank Ramiro and Dog Training Elite enough. Having the training done in our home, in their natural environment, made all the difference. It was a game-changer for our dogs and for us.

    We’ve had a wonderful experience working with Dog Training Elite! We have two large, energetic dogs with very little formal training experience, but just a few sessions with Carrie has brought huge positive change to my dogs. The private at-home sessions have been amazing for each of my pups to get the care and attention they need, and I’m continuously surprised at how well my dogs respond to this training method. They are already living a calmer, more structured lifestyle thanks to Dog Training Elite, and I’m confident that they will only continue to thrive! Could not recommend more!

    As a local business owner, having a reliable 'office dog' is a game-changer for our daily operations, and we owe that entirely to Cheyenne and Chelsea at Dog Training Elite Orlando. ​We originally brought Okey to them as a 6-month-old with the goal of service dog certification, and the process was so seamless and professional that he is now the perfect addition to our workspace—calm, focused, and impeccably behaved around clients. We were so impressed by the 'elite' standard they maintain that we’ve already entrusted them with our two newest puppies. If you’re looking to elevate your dog’s behavior to a professional level, I cannot recommend this team enough. They are truly the best in the industry!
