Our dog presented a unique challenge in that he is very small and (was) incredibly scared. He was aggressive and hard to manage. The trainers are very patient and obviously love animals. They instilled so much confidence in him that he is no longer the skittish, reactive dog he once was. They also made my family more confident dog owners. I would recommend them to anyone seeking assistance with their pet.

We worked with Toni for over a month with our dog Rosie who has severe anxiety outside with walks and people, and was unable to control herself around a new baby in our family. Toni did an amazing job training Rosie and teaching us the skills we needed to continue that training. Rosie went from not being able to sit still when the baby was around to staying calm in place, and still being able to be near him. It has been an unbelievable change! Rosie has been doing much better and walks and is getting more comfortable being outside every day. It's like we have a new dog!!! Toni was such an amazing help to us, extremely friendly, and knows what she is doing. Couldn't have asked for a better trainer! Seriously recommend!

We had an amazing experience with our trainer, Toni! She was so good with our dogs and great at explaining what we needed to do to be successful. Our dog, shadow, it’s a completely different dog after five weeks. We are now attending group dog training where we are continuing to see improvements in his behavior. Best investment we’ve ever made!

Been working with Toni from Dog Training Elite for over 8 weeks now in the Service Dog program. I can say with 100% certainty that I’m beyond grateful she was the one that knocked on my door for my dog Rozays Service Dog evaluation. She has been nothing short of amazing and has turned my dog into a completely different animal. He’s reached heights and done things I never thought were possible for him. This is all thanks to Toni. She is so good with my dog that he takes almost immediately to her new commands and gets excited on Mondays when he sees her for his training sessions. I don’t think I would ever let anybody else, but Toni train my dog. She’s very understanding of mine and my dogs needs. She definitely knows how to train dogs and get them to listen to her all while still maintaining a safe, comfortable and fun environment for my dog. If there is anyone deserving of a nice raise it’s Toni. She works with minimal stuff and still has an excellent outcome. Poor girl uses her own car to travel and train pups in a bunch of different locations. The company definitely needs to give her a car or a van or something to travel in! Treat that girl right because she does excellent work!! There is no elite in dog training without Toni! I almost want to call the company and complain to give that poor girl a car to use! Here’s a picture of my boy doing some place training with Toni at the mall.

Working with Toni has been an awesome experience! We reached out after noticing a progressive issue with leash reactivity/play aggression in our Irish Doodle as he matured. Toni was able to not only train our dog, Charlie but also taught us humans how to help him be successful. We are super happy with the progress he has made in such a short time and are super excited to see where these new tools take him!

Working with Ashley was great. She's a very knowledgeable trainer and works great with Akitas. I have two Akitas that are very hard headed, she took her time with them and was very patient.

Working with Toni has been amazing! After adopting an older dog with some aggression issues, I reached out for help making my German Shepherd feel comfortable in her new home as well as get her trained in basic commands. Toni came to our home on a flexible schedule that worked for us and has sorted out all our concerns. She’s helped build an amazing bond between me and my dog! Toni is gentle and consistent in her approach, making it easy to trust her through the tougher parts of training, like my dogs aggression towards other dogs and certain people. Dog Training Elite uses E-collars and it has made huge strides in just a couple months. I was hesitant at first but Toni taught me how to use it properly and how a low stimulus could catch the attention of my reactive dog without pain. My pup is starting to make new doggy friends because of this training and I can’t wait to see her living her best life by the end of the sessions! We’re forever grateful!

Our dog, Andy, was reactive to dogs he didn’t know plus had a few other bad habits too. Betsy worked with him as well as us and while it is hard for us to believe Andy can now walk past other dogs quietly when on walks. His other bad habits disappeared once he believed we were in charge and could take care of whatever was going on in his world. Cannot recommend Betsy or this training enough……Andy is a new dog and we’re newly appreciative everyday Thanks Betsy….hope everyone has a chance to experience what we have

Betsy and dog training elite Philadelphia are the best trainers around. I sent my 3 year old puppy, Artemis, to a board and train facility for several weeks. She understood the commands but was far from perfect. We called Betsy to help us tune up Artemis but through that process, we became totally bought in and elected to make her a therapy dog, with the goal of taking her to CHOP to help young children deal with in tough situations. I wholeheartedly recommend Betsy and dog training elite of greater Philadelphia- worth every penny!!!

We reached out to Elite Dog training and got Betsy as our trainer for our Golden Retriever Shiloh. Shiloh is going to be a service dog for our son. Our son has a seizure condition along with a lot of cognitive delays. From the very first phone call we have experienced nothing but EXTREME EXCELLENCE from this group! They have truly gone above and beyond for our family!! I would HIGHLY recommend this company! They love your dog and provide excellent training! Can not say enough good things about them! They truly care and are very professional! If you are looking for service dog training or just want a better relationship with your dog and want a well trained dog they are your people!!!

Betsy has totally transformed our almost 2 year old Cane Corso. Her patience and true understanding of dogs and dog breeds is the key to her success of both the dogs and the handlers. I can’t say enough about the effectiveness of Dog Training Elite and Betsy, I am grateful for the knowledge that I have been provided and the wonderful relationship that I now have with my Zeus!

Betsy of Dog Training Elite Lancaster is wonderful. The speed with which Betsy has taught our German Shepherd Dog to be respectful of us, to come when called, and to sit or go to a place until released is incredible. Betsy is a great trainer who adjusts the training to each dog. Betsy also comes to us, meets us at a dog park, and meets us at other places so our puppy can be trained around distractions rather than solely in the quiet and comfortable surroundings of our own home. I would highly recommend Betsy for dog training of any kind: family pet dog training, service dog training, protection dog training, and difficult or recalcitrant animal training. Hire Betsy and you won’t go wrong.

Betsy with Dog Training Elite Greater Philadelphia is an outstanding trainer. Betsy has taught my grand-dog manners and protection. I am elderly and was worried to have the dog come visit because she would jump on me and my wife. I can now enjoy my grand-dog, and thereby spend more time with my daughter and son-in-law. Thanks Betsy, for enriching an old man’s life!

I cannot say enough positive things about Betsy and Dog Training Elite – Lancaster. Our six-month old German Shepherd Dog is in psychiatric service dog training with Betsy and is progressing phenomenally! Sasha had been to obedience class and had a prior in-home trainer, but reverted back to her non-service ways shortly after each session. Betsy introduced us to a gentle electronic training collar and spent time ensuring that we were comfortable with it before use, then Betsy trains Sasha on each command – ensuring that Sasha knows the command – before we use the collar. Betsy meets us for training at different places to ensure that Sasha is comfortable and will mind in varying environments. Betsy is an amazing trainer and she customizes the training to the breed, strengths, and personality of each dog – and human! We will never use a different trainer. If you want a personal reference, please ask Betsy for the contact information for Sasha’s fur-parents at your first meeting with her. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Dog Training Elite is by far the most high quality dog training in the area. If your aspiration is for your dog to be impeccably trained, then without hesitation, ask for Betsy. She is a top notch trainer, who surely puts the “elite” into dog training! Betsy was hard working and patient, and always provided clear step by step instructions of what was expected. She came with a positive attitude every visit and reserved judgement, therefore putting us at ease, making us all feel confident in our abilities to transform our dogs’ negative behaviors into more desirable ones. Betsy took the time to get to know each of our dog’s personalities and what would work best for them. She actively listened to our family’s desired training outcomes and was able to create the most effective, custom action plan in order to achieve our goals. The dogs loved when Betsy worked with them, and instantly became trusting of her and her teaching methods. Our once Airedale “double trouble” duo has gone from rambunctious and running the household to calmer and much more well mannered and manageable. Everyone at home, including the pups, are visibly happier.

An absolutely incredible experience. Betsy and her team are literally the reason I’m able to keep my pup. I found on the street outside of my home, clearly used to breed and mistreated. This meant she obviously came with a lot of baggage, of which I was unable to handle on my own. Betsy came in and showed nothing but empathy for our situation, and even after Peri’s apparent dislike for authority, she never gave up and saw our potential. Peri will now sit anywhere I command her no, and not. I’ve until I say so. She has stopped chewing random things in my home, I haven’t lost a sock to her stomach (to then find it a couple days later) in months. I could not be happier, nor more grateful to have Betsy and this team in my life. 10/10 recommend. The concept of training WITH your dog creates an unbreakable bond between the owner and canine, and I’m so happy I chose this route opposed to a send away training. Best of all, we have a friend for life 🥲
