    Highly recommended! Great with Lola my dog and very professional and friendly!!

    Annie is such an amazing trainer! I feel super comfortable with her, she is so nice, and she is very knowledgeable. My puppy already knew some of the commands we went through during our sessions but Annie took the time to go over other things my puppy was struggling with since she already knew the command we were working on that day. She did this multiple times. She is always so kind and attentive and just fun to work with!

    We're going to change he is extremely awesome very good with the fur babies, well at least my guy baby, he's a very kind man, explained everything in detail so that I understood completely what the process was and what it would be going forward.

    All around f fabulous experience. Working with Josh today was awesome and gave us great insight into helping our pup be the best he can be! Thanks Josh!

    They did a great job with our puppy. I would highly recommend taking your dog here if you want to stop any behavioral issues or just want to develop a closer bond with your dog.

    We could not be happier with our experience working with Dog Training Elite! Josh has trained both of our doodles and each time we were amazed how quickly our dogs transformed before our eyes! He first trained our goldendoodle, Finn, who was having some aggression issues a few years back. He helped make Finn less anxious through training which has made all the difference for us. When we recently added a Bernedoodle puppy to our family, we knew where to turn! Josh trained Birdie so patiently even though she was stubborn at times! One of the things we love most is the DTE training structure. They focus on building skills slowly, teaching one command each week, which has been such an effective and successful process. Our dogs have been able to truly learn and retain each command before moving on. We can’t recommend them highly enough—if you’re looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and cares about long-term success, this is the place to go!

    He was very helpful with my pup's training. I will definitely continue to use Dog Training elite of Carmel for my pup's training.

    Our home visit was wonderful. Elijah was patient with us and Stella. He gave us a lot of very good suggestions. He even brought his dog, Ash, because Stella has a hard time accepting other dogs. Stella made great strides with Ash. Ash, of course, is well trained and obedient. We truly appreciate how much Elijah helped Stella and us. We have been extremely pleased with this whole program.

At Dog Training Elite Carmel / Fishers, we believe in-home dog training is the most effective way to address your dog’s needs. Unlike traditional obedience schools, which often provide a one-size-fits-all approach, in-home training allows our team to observe and address your dog’s behavioral issues within the environment they naturally occur.

For instance, if your dog has a habit of barking at the mailman or chasing the neighbor’s cat, our trainers can work directly with your dog in those exact situations. This personalized approach ensures we target the root of the behavior, making it easier for your dog to understand and follow commands.

In-home training minimizes distractions and allows your dog to focus better on learning. By starting in the home and gradually introducing group lessons, our program helps your dog retain commands and respond accordingly to their surroundings.

Benefits of In-Home Training Techniques

Read More
Read Less
  • Develop a Strong Bond
  • Dogs thrive in training sessions when they are with their loved ones. Learning commands is a way for your dog to connect with you, and your praise and treats make the experience enjoyable and strengthen your bond.

    Sending your dog to obedience school separates you from the training process, missing out on this important connection. At Dog Training Elite, we involve you and your family in every in-home training session. Our trainers focus on teaching you how to train your dog and enhance your bonding experience.

  • Quickly Teach Obedience
  • Obedience commands are crucial for any comprehensive dog training program. They ensure your dog’s safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. At the core of successful training, these commands must be mastered before progressing.

    Our in-home training program emphasizes foundational obedience, teaching essential commands like sit, down, come, and drop it. Once these basics are solidified, our trainers will guide you and your dog through more advanced skills.

  • Correct Problem Behaviors
  • If your dog jumps on guests, charges the door when the bell rings, or begs at the table, these issues can be effectively corrected with the right training techniques.

    Group classes or basic training programs often overlook these specific problem behaviors, which usually occur in your dog's familiar home environment. Bringing a trusted trainer into your home ensures these behaviors are addressed in the context where they happen, leading to more effective solutions.
