Psychiatric Service Dog Training in Columbia, SC

Amazing class! I enjoyed all of the knowledge and tips. I feel so much more confident with my dog.

Justin is personable and knowledgable.

Laird is an amazing trainer. Lotty and I are learning so much! She seems to know how my puppy is going to respond and instructs me how to handle her response. Laird is very professional and kind a rare combination.

Trainer was very energetic, competent and an excellent communicator. The training session was very lively and informative

Justin was promptly on time. He explained everything thoroughly, very professional had handouts so you could visually see what you were getting along with the pricing list. His two dogs were fantastic and hopefully we’ll have a similar result by putting in the work.

Working with Dog Training Elite and Laird has truly been a delightful experience for us. We couldn't be happier with how she has been so kind, knowledgeable, and loving towards our Akita. With her extensive experience, Laird has shared invaluable advice and guidance that has truly helped us in raising our dog. If you ever get the chance to work with Dog Training Elite or Laird, we're confident you'll have a wonderful experience too!

Justin was awesome. I was doubtful that Roxie was trainable With Justins explanation and our training she did great. We are so proud of her. Thank You Justin 😊

When we started we were afraid that It was going to be a “Dance Mom” case. Yet it wasn’t. The assessment was awesome, their schedule for training was spot on & most of all they care enough to give us the best dog training experience we could enjoy

Justin is very professional and patient with me with training and very knowledgeable in his field. Bear loves him too!!!

Very informative and great demonstration from Louie!

Everybody here is absolutely amazing! I can’t speak highly enough of their knowledge and professionalism!

Good job! My dog was happy and wanted to participate!

After being n vacation for 10 days I was pleasantly surprised by how well our boys are doing. We were in FL and the boys were very stimulated by the crowds and noises at Universal Studios. We had compliments as to how well behaved they were. Today they learned a new skill (closing draws and doors). They were very proud of themselves!

Justin was professional, polite, and an effective dog trainer. He exhibited patience and consistency. Our dog is showing progress with each session.

Justin was enthusiastic, friendly and clear in explaining the various programs. And very patient. Louie was spectacular!

Wonderful first assessment! We look forward to starting Therapy School next week!!!!!

Justin is great!

Great as always

Justin is a very professional young man who I have 100% confidence in his ability to help us create lovable obedient canine members of our family. ✅. Our first session has been extremely successful and rewarding.

Elite Dog Training – A Real Game-Changer After trying two other dog training companies that delivered zero results, I finally found the solution with Elite Dog Training—and what a difference. My dog, now 14 months old, has transformed into a focused, highly trained companion well on his way to becoming a legitimate service animal. The previous services turned out to be little more than slick websites outsourcing to inconsistent trainers, and none of them made meaningful progress. Elite was different from the start. They provided direct, hands-on training with real professionals who clearly understand canine behavior and training science. I saw improvements within weeks—obedience, responsiveness, and calm behavior that I couldn’t achieve elsewhere. Unlike the “middleman” services I encountered before, Elite doesn’t just promise results—they deliver them with consistency and care. If you're frustrated with ineffective training programs, I cannot recommend Elite Dog Training enough. They’re the real deal and they changed everything for us.
