Off Leash Dog Training in Charleston / Summerville, SC

Pulling your pup through the great outdoors on a leash is less than ideal for adventurous pet owners.

At Dog Training Elite Lowcountry, we offer private training sessions that are designed to fit you and your dogs needs. Our trainers focus on addressing specific issues while encouraging you to be actively involved in the process.

Key Factors for Successful Off Leash Training

When it comes to training, there are several key factors that ensure your dog is safe, well-behaved, and responsive to your commands. At Dog Training Elite, we focus on the following critical areas to help you enjoy a confident, leash-free experience with your dog.

Whether your dog is on or off leash shouldn't change his behaviors. We focus on instilling obedience in your dog so that you can feel confident in his ability to listen and remain loyal.
You are likely to come into contact with other pet owners during an off-leash walk through the park. Your dog must exhibit proper manners to the people and dogs he or she encounters. We can help eliminate problem behaviors like jumping and licking.
Off leash walking exposes an untrained pup to dangers, like bolting off into the road while chasing after a squirrel. On or off leash, the "heel" command directs your dog to walk by your side. Other commands, like "stop" and "off" prevent dangerous situations for your dog.
Squirrels, other dogs, wide open fields perfect for running - there is plenty to distract your dog on a long walk. Off leash adventures require you to have control over these distractions and your dog must be attuned to your commands. Our talented trainers will lead your dog through distraction exercises during training to teach proper attention and obedience.

    I most definitely recommend DOG TRAINING ELITE. I HAVE A 5 month cane corso MAXIMUS. BAELEIGH HAS BEEN AWESOME AND EXTREMELY HELPFUL. THERES A NIGHT AND DAY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIS BEHAVIOR.

    Y’all. If you need a dog trainer, you need Baeleigh. She is AMAZING. She just has a way about her and my dog loves her. He was super reactive to other dogs and after just a few sessions he is a completely different dog. I cannot believe it. He’s also stopped call barking in the back yard and doesn’t try to steal food off the table anymore. YAY! We do our homework and “trust the process”. HUGE RESULTS. I’m mad I waited so long to get help so don’t make that mistake!! Baeleigh will help you turn your dog into the good boy or girl they are meant to be ❤️

    We have had a great experience. Expectations are clearly set. Training barriers are understood and worked within our abilities and goals to deal with any barriers are broken down to manageable steps. I always get positive feedback back each session, even when the dogs have been stubborn with not wanting to cooperate. We have 2 little kids in the home and natural chaos is welcomed to our training sessions as it is just part of life. Scheduling is easy to coordinate.

    My husband and I have been working with Baeleigh for almost a month now and the progress we’ve seen with our dog Winston has been incredible! As a rescue, he struggles with anxiety and aggression but outside of that he is the absolute sweetest dog. With just a few solid weeks of training and structure he is much more calm, well-behaved and gets so proud of himself when he learns new skills and commands! The photos attached are from this week when he finally started to understand the “place” command. While we were hesitant to get a dog trainer at first since it’s such a big investment, it has been 100% worth it for us so far. We still have lots of work to do but I honestly can’t believe the progress he’s made in just a few short weeks!

    Baeleigh, Denham is by far the best trainer, she is understanding, easy to work with, straight forward, competent, and with her optimistic addittude it's impossible to not like her. We have a 8 month old bernese who is now perfect because of the guidance and training we have received from her and we couldn't ask for more. If you are EVEN considering getting a dog trainer by a professional, please use Dog Training Elite Low country and ask for Baeleigh, Denham, you won't regret it!

    I started back in August with a very crazy Pug wasn’t sure how he was going to do. It’s been 6 months and I can’t believe the difference and he also became a Service Dog. The training we received was awesome the trainers are great and I highly recommend there programs. BayLeigh has been doing task training and it has been so helpful.

    We have a great pyrenees who we thought would be a good therapy dog. During our first training session, we realized how helpful the training would be for us. He was a good dog but had some bothersome behaviors. A few lessons in and our home life has changed. Baeleigh has literally walked with us through his journey in becoming a therapy dog. He is extremely well-behaved. We highly recommend Baeleigh. She is creative, positive and committed to helping us achieve our goals.

    Baleigh at Dog Training Elite is an amazing trainer. She has helped us train our sweet golden girl Maggie as a therapy dog. We have been working with her since Maggie was around nine weeks old and she’s now nine months old and she has transformed so much in such a short time. We are so thrilled with the progress she has made and all the support from dog training elite. She still has some work to go, but she is on her way to being a wonderful therapy dog. I know she’ll be able to help so many people with her sweet and kind demeanor and using all her skills she has learned in training. I cannot thank the team enough for what this process has done for our family already. It’s amazing just to see how my kids interact with her and people in our neighborhood. And how she brings so many smiles to peoples faces.

    Excelled beyond expectations. The scheduling was handled efficiently. The coach, Baeleigh Denham, was a joy to work with. Very professional. Attentive. Patient but firm. I highly recommend Elite for anyone wanting a highly effective dog training (actually, owner training) resource.

    Baeleigh is the best! She is so knowledgeable about animal behavior and explains everything so it makes sense. She helped me be more confident when I’m training my dog.I noticed major progress within the first month of working with her. Ranger used to pull me down the side walk and try to wiggle out of his collar if he didn’t want to comply, but now he will walk by my side, I can take him in Public without him being crazy, and so much more. The group classes are also great for exposure around other dogs. I would recommend Baeleigh and dog training elite over and over again!

    COLBY is the GOAT. We choose Dog Training Elite because of Colby. From our first sign up meeting through our sessions, Colby has been professional and so incredibly supportive and instructive. Her patience with us and ability to not only train our dog, Diesel, but our family so we are all on the same page has been outstanding. I highly recommend DTE and Colby.

    I got a puppy earlier this year and immediately searched for a trainer. I made an appointment and a week later met Colby for a consultation. She was knowledgeable, kind, and professional. Almost 6 months later my puppy is exceptionally well trained and on her way to being a service dog. I’m so thankful for this company and their support. Highly recommend!

    This company has helped us turn our Airdale around from a terrified, aggressive canine to a well-behaved pooch. Colby and Bayleigh have been fantastic to us! Bayleigh often leads the group sessions and our individual sessions are mostly with Colby. They spend most of their time teaching us how to build our dog's confidence and obedience so she can live a happier life.
