    We started working with Dog Training Elite Central Mass in July 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with the progress our 14-month-old Lab, Rusty, has made! From the very beginning, their team has been incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive. The combination of private sessions and group classes has been a game-changer for Rusty’s training. The private sessions have allowed us to focus on specific challenges, while the group classes provide a great opportunity for socialization and practicing commands in a more distracting environment. Every trainer we’ve worked with has been fantastic, bringing their expertise and encouragement to every session. Rusty has gained so much confidence and obedience through their program, and we’ve learned invaluable skills as owners. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite Central Mass to anyone looking for professional, effective, and positive dog training!

They are very experienced, patient with dogs and humans, answer all of the questions (in sessions, via email and through group classes). They have a great system to text reminders and they are quick to respond if there are any issues with the location. Each trainer has also been extremely experienced and consistent.

    We really have learned a lot training our 7 month old husky puppy through Dog Training Elite. Marcus and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable when it comes to dog training. In just three months, our dog has learned so much and we have gained confidence in knowing how to interact with him. Marcus and his staff take time to personalize training to our dog's needs and answer our questions. Our puppy is almost one year old and is getting ready for his public access test. we chose Dog Elite Training because of their expert ability in being able to train service dogs and we could not be happier!

At Dog Training Elite Fitchburg, 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.
