    Matt is beyond professionalism, he’s wonderful, knowledgeable and knows exactly what he’s talking about. Always detecting the problem and give the solution within seconds. I wouldn’t want to work with anyone else and can’t thank him enough

    We just had our initial consult.Matt was amazing. He was very thorough in explaining exactly what would be the right fit for our dog Casper. Within 10 minutes, he was able to correct behavior such as barking and jumping.I'm looking forward to working with him.

    Matt was excellent. He explained the collar more and had me work with Jake so he could show me what I needed to do and correct myself. I enjoyed our session tremendously. I will say there is a lot to doing this but I’m going to do this as well as my dog is.

    I could only give them 5 stars in this review....if there were more stars I would have used them all! The customer service ~ quality of teamwork ~ and overall knowledge of EVERYONE we dealt with exceeded our expectations. If you are considering dog training....dont....just do it! It is so worth the money! And this team is the absolute best when it comes to teaching you and your pup.

    From dog that would bite, snap, growl, bark, everything under the sun, who played by her own rules for far too long, I had very little hope in as she’s 10 years old, but figured it was worth a shot as a last chance….to a dog who I now have full confidence to bring anywhere she needs to go with complete control, couldn’t recommend this training program enough, it’s amazing what can be done.

    Matt is by far the best dog trainer I have worked with over the course of my many years as a dog owner. Every week I leave feeling confident that I can execute the skills he has taught. I can't recommend him highly enough, he is knowledgeable, patient and passionate about training. Well worth the investment!!!

    Matt is an OUTSTANDING trainer. He’s helping us so much in understanding how to get our dog from a young, energetic to an attentive, caring service animal. He’s great at hearing your concerns and easing your mind through the entire process and we can’t thank him enough.

    Matt F (and Nova) were fantastic. After years of training based off of trial and error / YouTube training videos- it was time to help my reactive boy get the structure and confidence he deserves. Matt helped me to learn how to better communicate with River, the importance of consistency and follow through, and helped us strengthen our bond. We are excited to begin our group classes this month and continue learning with Dog Training Elite!

    We have had an amazing experience with our chocolate lab puppy Puddle at dog training elite with our awesome trainers Marcus and Tiffany!! Within 5 sessions our dog went from a crazy counter surfing, dog jumping, leash pulling, out of control pup to a pup who no longer counter surfs, walks beautifully on a leash, even in busy stores, and is just so much calmer. That’s very good for a puppy who is not even 9 months old. We enjoyed every session that we had with Marcus and Tiffany who were professional, prompt, friendly and fun to work with. We feel that we have so many tools and gained so much information to continue our training so that Puddle will continue to make progress every day. We are looking forward to the 12 group classes so that she can keep having challenges and learn new things. From the bottom of our hearts….thank you! ❤️❤️

    I can’t recommend Dog Training Elite enough. I reached out for help with reactivity with our 6 month rescue who other second dog in the house hold. Matt F came to the house to assess the dog and was able to understand our needs. During the nine week training session we were able to give our pup the foundation of training beyond what I anticipated. All our goals were met and more. I have had dogs throughout my life and gained more understanding in these sessions than I ever thought. I was able to bring this knowledge to my older dog as well and gained a better relationship with her as well. We live in a peaceful house with both dogs. Not having anxiety of having guest over. Dog Training Elite is well worth the money, when Matt F couldn’t make it the others that would fill in were great as well. When I had questions they would return my call. Great customer service. It was commitment to use what we were taught between sessions but was worth it. Great experience.

    I finished my last one on one session today. Matt was very patient with me. I’m older and have an energetic lab/pit bull. Matt has made me more confident when handling him. Marvin is very trainable. I’m not however. Matt has been a huge help in teaching me how to manage Marvin’s energy. I have more work to do on myself, but I have all the tools I need going forward. Marvin was happy and responsive and loved to see Matt walk through the door. I recommend Dog Training Elite for all dogs. This training has been a positive experience for Marvin as well. I’m looking forward to my group classes next! Thank you Matt and Dog Training Elite!

    Marcus and the team continue to be an excellent resource for myself and my partner while navigating our GSD training. They have been more than flexible with training styles and curating a training program for our own individual needs. Whiskey has benefited so much from their guidance, wisdom, and patience. From basic training to more advanced issues, they are knowledgeable and dedicated to helping the dog and the parents, alike. Couldn’t recommend them enough!
