Owners - DTE Coastal Bend

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.

Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend - Corpus Christi Dog Socialization Classes. DTE
My Problem:
Poor Socialization
My name is Milo
Hi. My name is Milo, and I have a bit of a 'ruff' time making friends with my fellow canines. You see, I'm all about making new friends, but when it comes to meeting other dogs, I get a tad overwhelmed. I’d like to get out more, please.

My Problem:
Nipping & Biting
My name is Scout
Hello, everyone, my name is Scout, and I have a little, um, 'nipping' habit. I'm all about spreading love and happiness, but sometimes, my excitement gets the best of me, and I end up with a playful nibble or two. I want others to feel safe around me.

My Problem:
Separation Anxiety
My name is Nora

Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend - Excessive Barking Training in Corpus Christi, TX. DTE
My Problem:
Excessive Barking
My name is Link
Woof! I'm Link, and I've got a little quirk – a tendency to let my barks fill the air a bit more than necessary. I'm all about helping to maintain a harmonious vibe, but sometimes, I just can't resist the call of the wild, or the squirrel on the neighbor's fence.

My Problem:
Staying & Coming

I'm Dexter, and I've got a bit of a wild streak when it comes to the 'down' and 'come' commands. Sometimes my adventurous spirit leads me astray when those commands are in play. It would really make me happy to learn how to listen.
Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend - Destructive Chewing and Digging Training in Corpus Christi, TX
My Problem:
Chewing & Digging
My name is Charlie
I'm Charlie, and I've got a little hobby, or shall we say, an issue – destructive chewing and digging. I simply can't resist the allure of gnawing on furniture or unearthing buried treasures in the garden. I'm on a mission to mend my ways.

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.

    We had the pleasure of working with Dog Trainers Anuj and Jessica from Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend, and had the best experience. Our daughter needed a service dog for college, and she worked all summer for a Great Dane. We've always had big dogs, so it was go big or go home. "Ace" went through both obedience and service training, and thanks to the excellent guidance from Anuj and Jessica, he did wonderfully. At just 11 months old, Ace went off to college and is thriving as a service dog with our daughter. We couldn’t be happier with how well he turned out, especially considering we have three untrained big dogs at home! We will definitely be using their services again, and would recommend them to all of our friends. Thanks again!

    Just finished up a full training program with DTE and they were fantastic. Very professional and did everything we wanted with our 2 year old mutt who is now the most obedient pup in the neighborhood. Highly recommend Anuj and his team. You won't be disappointed!

    I moved from Houston to Corpus Christi in December 2023 and was very excited to see that I could continue our dog training in Corpus. The Dog Training Elite Coastal Bend has helped me deal with some recent issues that have come up with my 1 year old Doberman. Since we started the training, Peaches has been doing so well. I've started feeling more confident and Peaches is showing less reactivity and less fear. Thank you to the entire team for your support and amazing training program. My working Doby is a happy girl!
