Helping Dogs Feel Calm & Confident

Aggressive Dog Training in Green Bay / Appleton, WI

One of the most difficult, necessary, and rewarding behaviors to correct in a dog is anxiety and aggression. These behaviors can be learned, genetic, or innate. When a dog feels threatened, their natural response is either fight or flight.

Most dogs will try to distance themselves from the perceived threat; if that's not possible, they may resort to aggression or submission. Some dogs, particularly those who see themselves as confident pack leaders, may turn to aggression as their first response.

Both of these reactions are rooted in anxiety and can be effectively addressed with Dog Training Elite's balanced aggressive dog training in Green Bay / Appleton, WI.

Understanding Aggressive Behaviors in Dogs


Read More
Read Less

Aggression is one of the most concerning behaviors your dog can exhibit. If left unchecked, an aggressive dog can pose a serious threat to family members, strangers, other dogs, or even themselves.

Many dog owners struggle with how to recognize early warning signs of aggression or how to effectively address these tendencies. Identifying and managing aggressive behavior early on is crucial in preventing it from escalating into more dangerous situations.

Common signs of aggression in dogs include:

  • Growling or bearing teeth
  • Threatening barks
  • Standing rigid and/or taller
  • Raised fur
  • Nipping and biting

Aggression often stems from underlying issues like fear, anxiety, improper training, or negative environments. Dogs that have been rescued from poor situations or found on the street are particularly susceptible to developing aggressive behaviors.

At Dog Training Elite, we specialize in professional dog training for aggression, helping your dog transform from fearful or aggressive to a happy, friendly, and loyal companion.

    We are so happy with the results of this training! After 8 lessons, Bella is calm in public now and fun to take on walks! She comes when we call her and listens so much better! Ramiro was kind and professional and did a great job teaching my husband and I how to use the training tools. Worth the investment! We highly recommend this dog training!

    AMAZING!! We are working towards therapy dog certification and this program has been the answer! Ramiro has helped us immensely and in a few short weeks we’ve seen such progress. Dog Training Elite is a must for anyone wanting to train their pup!

    Training with Ramiro has been great. He was able to come to our home where Mochi had some unpredictable behaviors and give us training exercises we can continue to utilize. Mochi has gained so much confidence and so have we! We’ve also learned training techniques we can use for our other dogs. We’re really excited to get started in the group classes and continue to build on what we’ve learned this far!

    We are so pleased with the training we received for our dog Stella! My fiancé and I signed Stella up for training after experiencing some reactivity toward my dog as well as on walks. Before we started training, we were on edge a lot because we never knew when Stella might show aggression toward my dog. I also didn’t feel comfortable walking Stella by myself because of her leash manners and reactivity toward people and other dogs on walks. Each week we worked with Marcy on teaching our dog some basic commands and how to correct unwanted behaviors. Marcy did a great job explaining to us what we needed to do and why. We have seen such an improvement with Stella! We know how to handle different behaviors now and I am able to take her on walks independently which I didn’t think would be possible. The training was so worth it, we would definitely recommend Dog Training Elite!

    We had an incredible experience with the entire team at DTE. Our trainer Marci was amazing to work with and talk things over each week. Very understanding and always had great insight and tips to handle any issue we threw at her. The process works wonders if you want it to work and put the time in during the week while the trainer isn’t with you. We loved our experience and are already looking forward to the free group classes to keep learning more.

    Dog Training Elite Northeast Wisconsin was the best decision I could have made for dog training. Ramiro was great. I highly recommend them! It not a quick fix it definitely takes work but the end results are worth it.

    We have a 10 month old Doberman named Tito that started showing signs of aggression and reactivity with other dogs and people. We were frustrated and in desperate need of training for Tito and for ourselves as well. Our training experience with Ramiro exceeded our expectations with the very first lesson. He made everything fun and easy for us in our home and made sure we were set up for success. Tito has showed so much improvement, but consistency is key. We look forward to doing the work, and starting group classes. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite of Green Bay for your training needs. Mark and Nicole Dorn Appleton

    Dog training elite is a must for all dog owners. We adopted a very shy puppy from the humane society and she would barely get out from underneath the kitchen table. We worked with Stephany, Ramiro, and Hannah during our Platinum Package and it was with every penny. Our little girl now sets the standard for any four legged friend we may ever have. I would highly recommend them and your dog is worth the investment. You and your friend will be very happy with the results. ROXY gives the service 4 paws up.

    Stephanie, Brianna and Hannah Thank you so much for the great job training Hazel. Day one we noticed a huge difference in her behaviors and her Frenchie attitude. So happy with everything she has learned in short time. Looking forward to future lessons.
  • Regan Henrickson
    Apr. 8, 2025
    We just finished a GREAT training course for our “too smart” blue heeler. Finding the right program for her was our biggest concern. And with a young family at home, we had to get it right the first time. Ramiro was great with her. He knew exactly how she needed to be trained to get the best results out of her. Each class was more for us and what we needed to do, than for her. We left each class impressed with our teamwork and the growing strength of our bond. He showed us how to work with her intelligence and kept her engaged the whole hour. She is already a new dog after 6 short weeks. He gave us all the tools we needed to continue her future training. We are very thankful for Dog Training Elite for showing us what she’s capable of and giving us one less thing to stress about.

    Best decision we have made for our Boxer was getting her trained at Dog Training Elite. We can’t thank the entire staff enough for all the knowledge they are passing onto us. A special thanks to Brianna and Hannah for working closely with Coco. We can’t believe how quickly Coco has transformed into an obedient pup. We look forward to the continued support that they provide for her with the platinum package.

    If I could give 100 stars I would!!! My dog Bulma was the shyest, timid dog who struggled with fear reactivity. We took her to see the trainers at Dog Training Elite and in just 2 short weeks she is a completely new dog. We looked at a few other trainers in the Green Bay and Fox Valley area and from the beginning I was very impressed with the level of detail and care the trainers showed. We signed Bulma up for the 4 day platinum plus package and we had the joy of working with Brianna. She was so sweet and so kind to our timid girl and by day 2 Bulma was giving her kisses and wagging her tail. By day 4 I have a completely different dog. She doesn’t pull or bark when other dogs are walking by she listens and the biggest thing is her confidence is growing. We have to put the work in to keep making strides with Bulma but I can’t thank Brianna and the whole team at Dog Training Elite enough.

    My shy and timid dog, Emmie, made incredible strides thanks to Ramiro’s patience and guidance. I was initially hesitant on what type of training Emmie would need, but with Ramiro’s experience with shy dogs I knew I was in the best hands. Emmie gradually started to come out of her shell, and I’m so grateful for the progress I’ve seen. I would highly recommend Ramiro to anyone working with a shy or fearful dog. I went from a dog who was literally scared of anything to a dog being able to walk in a store and be ok with sniffing an unknown persons hand. Ramiro’s training consisted of using a prong collar and an E collar, and with those two tools I was able to completely see a difference in my dog.

    We had a great experience with them! The staff was great and passionate about their jobs. Marcy was a great trainer and they were very flexible and understanding with our busy schedule. Our Airedale terrier did great and we noticed such a huge difference with her training and growth. Highly recommend!

    Training with Ramiro has been life changing for our family!!!! Our beautiful boy Donnie started becoming very insecure and reactive towards strangers and other dogs at the age of 8 months old. We assumed he had become aggressive but quickly into his training it was clear that he was just scared. We stopped bringing him places and felt very sad and defeated. We have 2 small children and knew this wouldn’t work long term with them wanting friends over to play someday. We were worried that we could possibly waste our money if the training didn’t work but that definitely was not the case! Seeing our baby boy transform before our eyes has been an incredible feeling and we just feel so proud!! It has been worth every penny! If you are reading these reviews unsure or trying to find a push to go for it, here it is!! Thank you Ramiro and Elite!!

    I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dog Training Elite, especially Marcy, for providing my dog, Charlie, and I with a significantly improved quality of life. Prior to training, Charlie exhibited reactivity tendencies, frequently barking at strangers and other dogs, and becoming inconsolable. Given Charlie’s advanced age of 8 years, I anticipated a challenging and stressful training process. However, by placing my full trust in the process, I have witnessed a remarkable transformation. Marcy demonstrated exceptional patience with the stubborn Charlie, who has grown to adore her. During my in-home assessment with the owner of DTE, he inquired about my expectations, and I am pleased to report that I have received far more value than I anticipated. Marcy not only trained Charlie but also empowered me with the confidence to be an effective pet parent, and I now have faith in Charlie's ability to behave appropriately.

Our Personalized Aggressive Dog Behavior Training

Read More
Read Less

At Dog Training Elite, we understand that every dog is unique, and we have developed a comprehensive training program specifically to eliminate aggressive behaviors across various breeds.

  1. Initial In-Home Assessment: We begin with a free in-home assessment where we meet your dog to understand the underlying causes of their aggression, anxiety, or fears. During this session, we identify triggers and gather the necessary information to develop a personalized training plan.
  2. Personalized Training Plan Development: Based on the assessment, we create a customized training program tailored to your dog’s specific needs. This plan targets the unique behaviors and triggers that contribute to their aggression.
  3. Building Confidence and Establishing Leadership: Our trainers work closely with you to establish your role as the pack leader in your home. For fearful and anxious dogs, we focus on building confidence and reducing the fears that trigger aggressive behavior.
  4. Desensitization and Obedience Training: For overly aggressive dogs, we use desensitization techniques to reduce reactivity to triggers and anxieties. Obedience training are key components of this stage.
  5. Group Class Integration: Once your dog reaches a safe baseline of obedience, we gradually introduce them to group class settings. These classes are designed to help your dog reintegrate into social environments successfully. For safety, a muzzle is required during these sessions to protect all dogs involved.
  6. Ongoing Support and Reinforcement: We continue to support you and your dog throughout the training process, offering guidance and reinforcement to ensure lasting success. Our goal is to help your dog become a loving, loyal, and well-behaved member of your family.
