Frequently Asked Questions

General
One of our trainers will visit your home to meet you and your dog and discuss any issues you're facing. We will then demonstrate one of our model dogs so you can see what you can expect after hiring our trainers. From there, we will discuss the various packages we offer and which we feel best suit your (and your dog's) needs.
We provide full obedience training that covers all basic commands, both on and off-leash. Our in-home visits target specific issues like counter-surfing, digging, and more. Unlike some trainers, we work with all breeds, including those often considered challenging.
Yes. You (and anyone in your family who wants to be involved) are integral to your dog getting trained. We need you to practice 5-6 days a week, about 15-20 minutes a day for optimal results.
Once a week. We come to you (with the silver, gold and platinum packages) once a week to start your dog off, then you come to park sessions which are held once a week in Corpus Christi.
To effectively resolve specific issues, we need to start with a solid foundation in obedience. This approach helps you become a confident leader for your dog, which is key to addressing and preventing behavioral problems.
Nope. Those are dangerous grounds to tread upon. We'd much rather train a vicious dog!
We train dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your dog is a tiny Chihuahua or a large Mastiff, we have the experience and expertise to work with them.
Yes. Working with and controlling aggression is one of our specialties in Corpus Christi.
We focus on training companion dogs for veterans and individuals with PTSD and other psychological conditions. In addition to service animals, we also train therapy dogs that visit hospitals, nursing homes, and treatment centers.
To be a service dog, your dog needs to have an even temperament. Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Standard Poodles, Goldendoodles, etc. typically have a great temperament for service work. For some types of service work, your dog will need to have AKC certifications (such as Canine Good Citizen or Community Canine) which we are able to certify. As always, we would be happy to assess your dog's aptitude for service work for free!

    Grayson was great! He is knowledgeable and friendly and my dog, Scout, loved him! He takes time to demonstrate each new command and gives feedback on my attempts. My dog and I both look forward to each lesson with Grayson and I highly recommend him if you’re looking for a trainer!

    We recently added a second Belgian Malinois to our family, and just like the first one, she’s super energetic and requires a ton of attention. We’ve used other trainers in the area before, and while they were all good, none have matched the quality of Dog Training Elite. We opted for the platinum package along with the service training, and we couldn’t be happier with our trainer, Grayson. They’ve exceeded our expectations, and the group classes they provide for socialization have been incredibly helpful in addressing the aggression issues we faced. Today, we took our puppy to a store for the first time, and she walked right beside me without a leash, completely unfazed by distractions. She followed all the commands perfectly and did an outstanding job.

    DTE was great. I contacted them and they wrte able to come out very quick for the initial evaluation. Grayson was the trainer that came out and was absolutely amazing. She was very knowledgeable and I feel would be a great asset in the training for me and my little boy Hook. I look forward to the future.

    LWe had our first meeting with Jessica to learn more about the different training programs servuce dog certification and pricing. She was SUPER friendly and had an answer to every single question we had. We were concerned about payment flexibility and she informed us they do different payment plans and options. We were able to figure out a plan that fits our financial capabilities! We can't wait to start our journey and begin working with the Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend team!! They also offer a military discount which is super awesome!! EDIT: First meeting and training session with Grayson, super professional and helpful with our concerns and teaching us the commands to get our dog Daisy to stop things that are not acceptable and how to use the e collar. We are so excited for our next training session and to continue our journey with this amazing company!!

Anuj and Jessica, the proud faces of Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend, bring a heartfelt touch to the art of dog training. Anuj, with years of distinguished service as an Army Medic, has channeled his discipline and dedication into helping both dogs and owners alike. Jessica's detail-oriented background as a lab tech and Financial advisor ensures their business runs with precision and warmth.

Their approach to dog training is grounded in the belief that every interaction should be based on positive reinforcement and individual care. With their co-owner dogs, Rye and Reggie, they exemplify the transformative impact of their methods. Rye, Anuj's steadfast service dog, and Reggie, a shining example of their training success, are integral to their lives and work.

The pair’s mission is deeply personal: to support their fellow veterans and the broader Corpus Christi community by enhancing the bond between dogs and their families. Anuj’s own personal struggles and Service Dog Journey through DTE led the pair to pursue helping others achieve the same healing and benefits that their family has experienced. They're not just in the business of training dogs; they live it and they're fostering a family of dog lovers through shared experiences and mutual support.

When they're not engaged in training, Anuj and Jessica can be found immersed in the community, sharing their love for music and the water, and enjoying life with Rye and Reggie. Their commitment to their craft and their clients is as unwavering as it is genuine.

At Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend, Anuj, Jessica, Rye, and Reggie aren't just providing a service — they're welcoming you into a family where every dog is trained with care, and every owner is treated with respect and kindness.
