Clint Frank
Owner & Lead Trainer | Dog Training Elite Fort Wayne
Clint is a proud veteran of the Marine Corps, honorably serving his country with 2 impressive tours in Iraq during his time of service. Clint studied Exercise Science at Ball State University and continued further to earn his Masters's Degree in Sports Performance. Clint's passion for physical education led him to a 9 years long career as a High School P.E. teacher, where he also had the privilege of becoming the Athletics Coach in the strength and conditioning department.
Clint has a chocolate lab name Kamo, and the two enjoy hunting (mostly ducks) and any activity they can do together. Being from Indiana, Clint was surrounded by dogs all his life, so making a career change that involved these amazing animals was a natural progression for him. Family is everything to Clint! Clint and his wife, Cassie (also an experienced teacher) have two sons, ages 3 and 5. Clint thoroughly enjoys playing dinosaurs with their younger son and building/launching rockets with their older son! Clint and Cassie enjoy having the entire family involved in running their business and look forward to meeting you and your canine companion!

Cassie Frank
Co-Owner & Marketing/Communications Director | Dog Training Elite Fort Wayne
Cassie grew up in a small Indiana town and had dogs her entire life. When the time came to look into getting her first car, Cassie’s parents said she could pick out a used car or a puppy and a hand-me-down car. Cassie, of course, chose the puppy (a dachshund named Charlie). Cassie graduated from Ball State University with a degree in Elementary Education. While in college she met Clint, now her husband of eight years. Like most newlyweds, they decided to get a puppy. Kamo was quite the rambunctious chocolate lab. However, with training from Clint, he was an obedient puppy in no time! Shortly after Kamo entered their lives, their family grew by two sons (Scout currently 3 years old, and Palmer 5 years old). Cassie has taught at the elementary level for ten years and is excited for the new learning adventures ahead.

Trainer | Dog Training Elite Fort Wayne
Nathan is a loving husband and father. He values honesty, loyalty, and good friendships. Perhaps that is why he loves dogs so much, as they are the definition of loyalty and affection. Over the years, Nathan has owned several dogs. Currently, he enjoys the companionship of a sweet terrier mix named Wrenly, who is smart and eager to learn, and a big fluffy Pyrenees mix named Gracie, who takes a little more encouragement.
He has been married for 20 years to his wife Elissa and has three teenagers, Trace, Cole, and Samantha. When not spending time with his family and dogs, he is also a scheduler and mediator at MindCAP Cognitive Advantage and loves spending time outdoors. He is excited to work with dogs and their owners, to help them develop the skills they need to live peacefully and confidently in their homes and communities.

FAQs
One of our trainers will visit your home to meet you and your dog and discuss any issues you're facing.

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.
