Boxer Dog Training in Atlanta, GA

Boxer dogs have long been a favorite among families, and for good reason. These attractive, muscular dogs are known for their loyal and loving nature, making them an ideal family pet.

However, their intimidating appearance can be quite misleading to those unfamiliar with the breed. Unlike dog breeds like bulldog or pit bull that are known to be more aggressive, the boxer is a playful and strong dog but is not considered to be aggressive. Professionals that work with this breed suggest that aggression in a boxer is an indication of poor training. Dog Training Elite's Atlanta Boxer puppy and adult training is a crucial step for pet owners to take seriously.

The Importance of Proper Training for Boxers

When you become a pet owner, you’re responsible for that animal's well-being. This obviously includes the feeding and nurturing of the animal, but no less important is the training the animal receives. A well-trained pet is one that has learned how to live cohesively with their environment and their family. This is a requisite for a pet’s happiness — and the happiness of their owners as well. With 40 years of experience in breed specific training, Dog Training Elite in Atlanta provides an in-home training program that is ideal for both pets and their owners.

At Dog Training Elite we believe in classical conditioning training. This kind of training is particularly good for the loyal and affectionate boxer breed. We want to establish a firm but kind dominance between the owner and their boxer. Boxers need to know their owner is in charge, but this can be asserted with consistent and balanced training. Our approach is sure to provide sustained obedience and encourage bonding between the pet and their owner.

    100% would recommend Dog Training Elite Northwest Atlanta! We reached out to Michael and Gosia in desperation after our overprotective black lab tried to chew through the basement door when we had a babysitter. We had resigned ourselves to the fact that we just couldn't have anyone in our home when we weren't there. They came over to assess Charlie and explained his behavior in a way that gave us hope. Their expertise and patience with Charlie (and us) has decreased Charlie's anxiety and has brought out the best sides of him. We are so grateful for their expertise! Their one on one training sessions have been game changers, and we are excited to have the continued support through group sessions going forward.

    Highly recommended - sought out a trainer for our 6 month old pup, and after extensive research, we decided to go with Dog Training Elite. They did not disappoint! Michael (our lead trainer) was knowledgeable, detailed, informative, flexible and most of all PATIENT! If you are looking for in-home training, this is it!

    Gosia has been a delightful person to help us adjust to and know how to train our sweet golden retriever pup Sandy. We have a large family with many kids of various ages and wanted to insure that we were all on the same page and consistent in setting up puppy training right. Gosia’s patience and kindness and expertise have given us tools to help us be in control and love our sweet girl even more as she learns to obey and please. We look forward to continuing obedience training as she grows.

    We highly recommend Dog Training Elite Northeast Atlanta! We loved having the one on one experience combined with group dog training. Our dog, Louie, is much better behaved and happier and so are we😀

    The training is perfect for a puppy. They taught my puppy to sit, place, come and walk on a leash. They actually taught me how to train so I can keep it going. Perfect dog training and great people!

    Mike and Goisa were enthusiastic, well prepared, caring trainers. They knew exactly how to get my wild bernedoodle to do as they asked. Always had good tips and eager to answer any questions I had about puppy behaviors. Very nice people, as well!

    My wife and I sought out training services with DTE NE Atl for our 6 year old labradoodle, Della, after recently adopting her. We were seeking support for Della as she was a VERY anxious dog, especially with people (new people.) She is a very sweet dog, never aggressive, just nervous and anxious and overall lacking confidence. My wife and I were skeptical if anyone could help Della, as we had her for 6 months at this point, she’s an older dog, and it seemed to be more of a personality trait and maybe the effects of what she had been through in the past before we adopted her. Then came Michael with Dog training Elite. Della has completed their platinum training program and is truly a different dog. She still has a shy disposition, but has gained so much confidence from training with Michael in our home and out in public. Her anxiety has decreased and as we continue to work on it, she now knows so many commands and looks to us as her owners to see if a situation is safe before running away. She has confidence in us AND herself. We now attend group classes regularly with Michael and Gosia which have propelled Della even further. They run an amazing program!! We are truly grateful for their help, flexibility, and support in equipping us and Della for success.

    “I can’t recommend Dog Training Elite owned by Michael and Gosia enough! Their expertise, patience, and dedication turned my Doberman Pinscher Arya, into a fully Certified Service Dog. From day one, they provided clear guidance and personalized training that truly made a difference. Arya is now confident, well-mannered, and ready to assist me in everyday life. If you’re looking for a trainer who genuinely cares and delivers results, look no further!”

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have had an amazing experience working with Michael and Gosia during our Platinum program for our puppy, Lyra. Their training methods are highly effective—we’ve seen noticeable improvement in Lyra’s reactivity, and she’s become much more obedient. Michael and Gosia are incredibly personable, always on time, and very communicative throughout the process. They genuinely care about the success of both the dog and the owners. While training can be an ongoing process & we know we still have work to do in the group classes ahead (which are included with platinum pkg), we are so grateful for the strong foundation they’ve helped us build and cannot wait to continue improvement. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for knowledgeable and reliable trainers!

    Many, many thanks to Dog Training Elite and especially to our Trainer/Owner, Michael Billedo. My wife and I checked out several dog training programs in the area for our Cavapoo, Cali, prior to contacting DTE. We were both very pleased and impressed with Michael and with the information he provided on that first phone call and felt very comfortable setting up an in-home introductory appointment. That first appointment went very well and Michael was very friendly and informative and there was absolutely no sales pressure. He made an immediate connection with Cali and with us and we comfortably selected the program we all felt would best meet our needs. Michael far exceeded our expectations as both a friendly and personable instructor and an expert dog trainer (and passionate dog lover!). We enjoyed working with Michael immensely both personally and professionally and highly recommend DTE and Michael for a great dog training experience. Our training goals were met and we now possess the tools and techniques we learned for a lifetime!

    Whit and his family have done an incredible job with my Bella, as well as with us as dog parents. We enrolled Bella for service dog training since she was a little crazy puppy, and she has grown into a wonderful well behaved adult dog that we are very proud of. Consistency is key, and we appreciate Dog Training Elite West Atlanta for always being consistent with us.

    Mikie & Dixie have made SO much progress from training! Gosia & Mike were so patient with our newly rescued, very skiddish, dogs. The pups went from scattering like cockroaches with any amount of freedom or any noise to following us off leash in a Home Depot in the loud lumber department & following us down the path to our dock or wherever we lead them.p Thank you!!!

    The terms "professional," "personable," and "efficient" scarcely encapsulate the outstanding training and demeanor that Whit Gray provides! My dog had been labeled as "fear aggressive," as Whit accurately described. He would nip at strangers and exhibited discomfort with being touched, although he was comfortable around my family members. Additionally, he appeared intimidated by toddlers and unfamiliar faces in our home. After just four one-on-one training sessions, I observed a remarkable transformation in my dog! What I appreciated most about Whit was his patience and professionalism in his training techniques, complemented by his thorough explanations of his methods and their underlying rationale. He offered me reassurance and guidance on how to teach my dog right from wrong. Whit not only excels as a trainer but also maintains an approachable and responsive demeanor when I had inquiries about my dog's behavior or needed to reschedule sessions. His communication was consistently professional and efficient. I wholeheartedly recommend Whit as a trainer for anyone seeking a patient and skilled professional. Thank you, Whit!

Boxer Training Tips

When you utilize the dog training services from Dog Training Elite in Atlanta, you gain access to our specialized training services tailored to fit your needs.

Here are some essential training tips for Boxers.

When training a boxer puppy the first consideration is socialization both with other dogs and with people. When socialized properly a boxer can be a friendly and social pet.

Boxers are athletic and strong dogs that can weigh from 50-80lbs. For this reason, it is important to have a dog that will quickly respond to commands. A boxer that can do the following is one that will be easier to keep safe as well as be a safer pet to have around.

  1. Listen when their owner calls
  2. Heeds requests to sit or heel
  3. Knows not to jump up on people
This, of course, is a skill of utmost importance to all pet owners. The boxer breed is known to be a clean animal that is amenable to being potty trained when given the right kind of instruction.
