The Benefits of Puppy Training

Read More

Our classes help your pup grow into a well-behaved dog. Here are a few benefits you can expect from choosing our elite training:

  • Deepen Your Bond With Your Puppy: Training your puppy – and continuing training with new tricks as they get older – is a great way to bond closely. Puppies have a natural desire to please and will learn to rely on you for guidance and direction, establishing a foundation of trust and love.
  • Socialize Your Dog: Obedience training, especially with group classes, helps dogs become comfortable and well-socialized around other dogs and people. This is important for when you want to take your dog on walks or invite people into your home.
  • Improve Your Dog’s Safety: Training your dog to listen and obey your commands will help them stay safe in any situation. Learning commands like “down,” “leave it,” “stop,” and “wait” can keep your dog safe from messing with dangerous things like electrical cords and other situations outdoors.
  • Provide Mental Stimulation: Good dogs can become bad dogs if they don’t have a way to work out physical and mental energy. Training as a lifelong pursuit is a great way to challenge your dog mentally and keep them engaged.

    We are so happy we went with Elite after reaching out to multiple trainers in the area. We were given different options for how to go about training; in public, at their facility, or in our own home. It made it very convenient and helpful to train in different environments with our dog. Ramiro was a great trainer, not just for our skeptical dog, but also as worrisome owners. He explained each step and helped us and our dog work together to help us be more confident in public and having visitors over. Being a rescue, our dog has a tendency to be on high alert but training has helped him trust us and relax.

    Awesome experience with Ramiro! Completely transformed our dogs. Had issues with them being aggressive towards each other and with a baby on the way, we had to find a fix. Ramiro solved all of our issues. Highly recommend

    Dog: Hazel, 2-year-old Shelter Lab Mix Program: Platinum Package Issue addressed: Severe leash reactivity (lunging, barking toward other dogs,motorcycles, bicycles and joggers. Dog training Elite Northeast Wisconsin is a great investment in Hazels future. For shelter dogs with unknown baggage and deep-rooted anxiety or guarding issues.This program provided a safe, effective, and transformative solution that allowed Hazel to finally relax and be a confident family member. From our very first session, Hannah Randal demonstrated incredible patience, professionalism, and a genuine love for dogs. Instead of just drilling commands, they focused on why Hazel was behaving the way she was and taught me how to communicate effectively using positive reinforcement.

    We couldn’t happier with how Ramiro helped us transform our insanely hyper pup. We knew Rambo was a smart boy, but we struggled with showing him direction. Ramiro helped us mold Rambo into a focused and eager to learn good boy! Give Dog Training Elite Northeast Wisconsin a call today and your relationship with your dog will be so much better!

    Ramiro was extremely professional throughout all of our sessions and a superb teacher with the whole process. Our Mini Aussie went from a non stop barking dog to a very well mannered companion. I would without question recommend this training to anyone who is looking for dog training.

    We worked with my dog that was reactive and hard to control. They understand recuse dogs and how to work with them. I am impressed with the results and he passed his K9 test.

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dog Training Elite and more specifically our amazing trainer Brianna! From the very first session, her warmth and kindness made both us and our pup feel completely at ease. She’s incredibly flexible, always willing to adjust her schedule or approach to meet our needs, and her deep knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques is truly impressive. What sets her apart is how she blends professionalism with genuine care. She didn’t just help us train our dog; she built trust, confidence, and a meaningful bond between us and our pup, Brewer. Our dog has learned so much and has truly made amazing progress, and we’ve also learned so much from her along the way. We absolutely love her and feel so lucky and grateful to have found someone so talented and compassionate. Brianna truly understands dogs and treats every family with respect and heart! We highly recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone looking to train their dog.

    We took our Labrador to Dog Training Elite and we had a fantastic experience. Our boy was already pretty well-behaved and tempered, but we wanted to ensure he was a good listener, knew important commands, and get him used to distractions, new people, new places, etc so that we could count on him to operate well in all kinds of circumstances. Ramiro was so great to work with, Chubbs learned so much and is such an incredible companion thanks to Elite’s help. Would definitely recommend working with them!

    We knew our German Shepherd had all the potential but didn’t know where to start. We were worried at 3 years old he would be too set in his ways, but Ramiro assured us that was not the case. After 8 weeks we have a completely different dog, who I feel confident walking, having guests around, and taking into public. We were given all of the tools and just had to be consistent and apply them on a daily basis. We’re really excited to continue our journey, join classes, and keep Max working. Can’t recommend Elite Training enough, worth the expense to go from stressed to confident and educated.

    It has been an amazing experience for the dog's as well as for me. The control I have with my dog's without yelling at them or trying to guess what they are going to do has been a huge relief. I highly recommend this training to anyone who wants to get out with there dog's and enjoy the time you have with them you won't regret it! Gary Weyenberg

    They helped me to absolutely transform my pup and his life. I am now able to walk him and take him out in public, which was not an option before. He also now has great house and stranger manners. With this training and the complete turn around of Duke’s behavior, i’m able to give him a more fulfilling life with experiences we would’ve missed before. Thank you so much Dog Training Elite, and especially our trainer Stephany! I am beyond grateful for all of your hard work!

    We reached out to Dog Training Elite after failed attempts with trying to use a standard shock collar to decrease resource guarding. Hannah was so helpful and patient with training us and our dog, Dewey to respect his e-collar, improve his obedience with his recall skills, and even reduce his resource guarding with food around other dogs - something we didn’t believe he would ever be able to achieve! He’s still hesitant with other dogs in his personal space but has improved so much with his ability to respond to his commands to create a better peace of mind for all of us. We can’t thank Dog Training Elite and Hannah enough!

    Ramiro was always flexible with the schedule and was willing to change our classes when things came up. The dogs are doing soo much better and they learned a lot during the 8 weeks of training. Definately worth the money!

    When we first began looking into training for our 10-month-old golden retriever puppy, Crew, we were primarily seeking help with basic commands and obedience. After reading several positive reviews online, I reached out to Dog Training Elite and connected with Brianna. She walked me through the available training packages with great detail and a clear understanding of our situation. The glowing customer service reviews couldn’t have been more accurate. We ultimately chose the In-Facility Platinum package, which included a four-day training camp in Bellevue, WI, along with four in-home sessions. One area we were particularly anxious about was how Crew would handle crate training at camp. He had not been crate trained at home and had shown signs of anxiety at times. We couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. Each day after camp, Crew came home happy and more responsive to the trained commands than the day before. The in-home sessions further reinforced his listening and obedience skills. It’s clear how much Brianna and the entire DTE team care about the dogs they train—Crew lights up every time he sees her. We’re also proud to share that Crew successfully completed his AKC Canine Good Citizen test, thanks to the coaching and support from Brianna and the DTE team. When we first reached out for training, we never imagined he would achieve such a milestone. I would highly recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone in need of obedience training for their dog. We’ll definitely be returning for group classes and with future pets!

    Our dog Indy is a rescue that has quite a bit of anxiety and reactivity. We had tried another trainer without success and were pretty lost on what to do. But after starting with Ramiro we noticed a significant difference after just 2 weeks. Our family has noticed how much more calm and peaceful she is. We’re excited to start group classes to socialize her more!

    When we started we were very anxious on if any of this would work with our dog. Im happy to say after his 2 months hes had huge improvements compared to the last two years. Although his reactivity will be a process to work through, he has learned so much from Ramiro! His walks are longer and a lot calmer then they used to be , he listens and focuses on me now instead of every distraction. We could take down our black outs from our windows and he just lays down and watches outside instead of jumping on the window going crazy at other dogs and people most of the time. Hes more relaxed and over all attitude has changed for the better. This company even has group class with all of the dogs they've trained and im so excited to take dax (my dog) to them and socialize more with being around other dogs and people. After about a one and a half sessions , Dax went from going crazy and lunging at Ramiro to absolutely loving him. Dax hears his voice and immediately butt wiggles over to him. I was weary for sure , but over all it was a great experience and we fully trust Ramiro and love the amount of care and help provided to us in this training course! If I could give 100 stars I would! My husband and I got a lot of training as well , so he trained three of us for the price of one. 😁

Training Essentials for Your Puppy

Here are a few puppy training tips from the expert team at Dog Training Elite! If you have any questions or want to see these methods in action, give us a call. We are more than happy to show you a demonstration and provide you with a glimpse of what our professional team can do!

At Dog Training Elite, we believe in positive reinforcement and yummy treats do the trick! We recommend a high-quality, berry-sized reward that your puppy will enjoy. Rewarding your dog while training teaches them that you approve of that behavior and maintains their motivation to perform well.
Because you’ll be handing out lots of treats, you will probably want a treat bag or pouch. There are many options out there with different sizes, shapes, and ways to carry. The benefit of getting a treat pouch is the ease of access and the ability to reward your puppy quickly. If you aren’t interested in getting a treat pouch, we recommend getting a small bag to carry you puppy’s rewards.
A clicker is a great tool to have along with rewards when training a puppy. With a clicker, you can immediately provide a positive sound when your dog performs a correct behavior, and then you can reward them with a treat. Pairing a clicker with treats is a great way to instill positive reinforcement because you teach your dog that they get a treat when they hear a click. You can buy many kinds of clickers at your local pet store, and they even have helpful clicker apps.
A good leash is another essential when bringing home a new puppy. We suggest a leash made of a durable material like leather and about 6 feet long to allow for comfortable room for both of you. Training your dog on a leash will set you up for fun walks in the future, keep your dog safe, and prevent them from getting lost while out of the house. It is also beneficial for an excited puppy who wants to run around and play while training.
You'll need a sturdy collar or harness to attach a leash while training. Deciding between a flat collar or body harness is up to your personal preference, but it is good to consider your dog's comfort and demeanor. A collar is necessary while training and for safety while out and about. A collar/harness is also the best place to attach the identification for your puppy. If anything happened to your dog, you'd be glad you had a collar with your information on it!
Getting a dog crate is a great way to housetrain your puppy. You will want to get a durable and safe crate for your dog that has enough room for them to be comfortable. You want the crate to be a place of calm and safety for your dog, not a punishment zone. Getting your puppy crate trained gives you a safe space in your home to keep them while they are unsupervised and also prevents unwanted behaviors like chewing or peeing inside.
