Boxer Dog Training in Greenville, SC

Boxer dogs have long been a favorite among families, and for good reason. These attractive, muscular dogs are known for their loyal and loving nature, making them an ideal family pet.

However, their intimidating appearance can be quite misleading to those unfamiliar with the breed. Unlike dog breeds like bulldog or pit bull that are known to be more aggressive, the boxer is a playful and strong dog but is not considered to be aggressive. Professionals that work with this breed suggest that aggression in a boxer is an indication of poor training. Dog Training Elite's Greenville Boxer puppy and adult training is a crucial step for pet owners to take seriously.

The Importance of Proper Training for Boxers

When you become a pet owner, you’re responsible for that animal's well-being. This obviously includes the feeding and nurturing of the animal, but no less important is the training the animal receives. A well-trained pet is one that has learned how to live cohesively with their environment and their family. This is a requisite for a pet’s happiness — and the happiness of their owners as well. With 40 years of experience in breed specific training, Dog Training Elite Upstate SC provides an in-home training program that is ideal for both pets and their owners.

At Dog Training Elite we believe in classical conditioning training. This kind of training is particularly good for the loyal and affectionate boxer breed. We want to establish a firm but kind dominance between the owner and their boxer. Boxers need to know their owner is in charge, but this can be asserted with consistent and balanced training. Our approach is sure to provide sustained obedience and encourage bonding between the pet and their owner.

    Dog Training Elite has done so much for my dog. Our trainer Sydney was absolutely amazing, our initial appointment I had absolutely no hope that my dog could even be half as behaved as her dogs were and I was proved totally wrong. My freshly 1 yo puppy (who i’ve only had for 4 months) has perfect recall, manners in public, walks in a perfect heal, and most importantly doesn’t react to other dogs. my goal is for my pup is to be a service dog one day, and Dog Training Elite has helped me see that is totally doable. I am so happy this is the training company I went with, couldn’t be happier and neither could my puppy.

    Cannot say enough good things about Dog Training Elite! From our in home trainings with Sydney, to our group classes with Jared and Sydney, every experience has been great! We enrolled our little guy Colt to help with his reactivity to other dogs and people, and are just amazed at his progress! He is able to stay calm and let other dogs walk by him and get close without going nuts. Thank you guys for being so kind and for all your help!

    Jared , Casey and the whole Dog Training Elite team are phenomenal. We came to them for help with our GSD and his reactivity issues and he's honestly a completely different dog. Jared ran a lot of our sessions and he is extremely knowledgeable and really cares about the success of each dog he trains. Scheduling was very easy and flexible. Overall, I cannot recommend DGE enough. Definitely check them out. Worth every penny.

    From a person who never leaves a review on Google, I’m compelled to leave a very positive review for Dog Training Elite Upstate. Having spent many thousands of $$$$ for training my BorDoodle pup for 3 years, I wish I’d met Jared a long time ago but perhaps I had to go through all that other training to really appreciate the difference he has made for my relationship with my wizardly smart pup. Most good trainers can have a dog do things an owner is unable to accomplish. The big difference between short term and long term success is that now for the first time, as an owner, my dog is doing those things for me, not just the trainer! Jared knows the magic that happens when he trains the owner/handler, not just the dog. People are harder to train than a dog. As a side note, I’m an ‘’elderly’’ who has owned dogs all my life and never had to have professional training for any of them. They just ‘’did’’ what I taught them to do, that is until I met my match 3 yrs ago with this current pup. I highly recommend Jared and his team!

    I chose Dog Training Elite TWICE! I have two very different rescue dogs with very different needs and they helped them and me learn to work together! One was abused and terrified of everything and I later adopted a rescue that lived on a chain. Jared and the team helped both of them and we continue with group walks now. The trainers are extremely supportive and great with the dogs! They document and video each day and go over it all and show you how to work with your dog. I am grateful to them for helping my dogs feel confident and successful! I also found that I am trainable. Ha ha! Dog Training Elite Upstate is a great resource for training your beloved family member.

    We got a six month old puppy that had been “trained.” We thought great but she was very active and we had no idea where or how to start with an older puppy. DTE met with us and answered all million of our questions. We were able to start right away and worked with our new puppy. She learned quickly and has amazed us. She stays in our yard and stay on place. She walks well with our children and doing well with her commands. I was going crazy when we first brought her home. Now, she is a joy.

    Jared and his team were great with getting our training with our pup Strider started off on the right foot. They are exceptionally knowledgeable, patient and the videos they provide everyday on what they went over were great learning tools.

    Jared and his staff made a big difference in Blazes obedience. He is happy to listen to commands. They made the training easy for Blaze and my wife and I to understand. Overall it was an excellent choice to have Blaze trained by Dog Training Elite.

    We loved going thru this training! Our dog is just a house pet who needed some extra help with manners and managing excitement. We had tried training on our own, watching videos, using treats, etc. but hadn’t gotten very far. Jared such a huge help with everything! Our dog, Waylon, got so many compliments at easter dinner on his good boy manners! He is now able to do all of his favorite things without hassle like swimming in the lake without excessive barking and walking without pulling or jumping. I cannot recommend this program enough and am grateful we found such a fantastic program and trainer!

    Bella, our 6 month old Golden, was the Queen of the house. It was our fault for not being consistent and we needed help. Bella would take things off the counter and bring them to her bed. Not chewing them up, just holding for ransom, treat. She also would hold on to the back of my robe and not let go. Someone we meet had introduced us to Dog Training Elite located Upstate SC. We have completed one on one classes and group training for the week and now we meet once a week for more group training. Where you meet great people and their dogs. Bella is amazing. She craves commands and I can’t believe the change in her. I’ve had 9 dogs and this is our first training, I highly recommend these guys. They are all great. Thank you

    Dog Training Elite has been amazing to work with. The trainers explain everything they are asking you to do and why. They have worked with our schedules as well. We tried online training during COVID with another company, boarding training with another, but no one has really helped us with our anxious Frenchie as much as this team has so far. We are now excited to try group training which we would not have considered a few months ago!

    With all of the Dachshunds that we have had over the years, we have never enrolled one in dog training. I have to say that we are really impressed by Dog Training Elite! Sydney was our primary trainer, we had Jared out once as well. Sydney was very professional and up beat with her training methods. She explained everything as she went along and did a great job of coaching our puppy, as well as us - we needed training on what to do as well. At the end of each session, Sydney would make sure to remind us that we could reach out to them by phone or email if we had any needs for our continued training. I would highly recommend Dog Training Elite.

    Jared and his team are amazing. I had goals that I wanted to achieve with my Belgian Lance . Jared went far beyond my expectations. The team is always available to assist and answer questions. Easy scheduling.. Now Lance and I are moving on to the next step with Jared and train Lance to be my service dog. I can’t say enough of great things about Jared and his team. I will post again once Lance is fully citified. Thanks Jeff

    We did a lot of research on dog trainers before landing on Dog Training Elite. We are so pleased with the team, the process, and the tools they gave us through out the whole process. We had a lot of questions during the intake process and the team was extremely helpful. As the weeks went on and we learned more about our two dogs, the staff was always there to answer any dog care related questions! They made it extremely easy to book sessions and came to our house. After 5 sessions I can confidently say both our dogs have done a 180! I look forward to continuing their training in the group classes. I can't recommend this team enough.

Boxer Training Tips

When you utilize the dog training services from Dog Training Elite Upstate SC, you gain access to our specialized training services tailored to fit your needs.

Here are some essential training tips for Boxers.

When training a boxer puppy the first consideration is socialization both with other dogs and with people. When socialized properly a boxer can be a friendly and social pet.

Boxers are athletic and strong dogs that can weigh from 50-80lbs. For this reason, it is important to have a dog that will quickly respond to commands. A boxer that can do the following is one that will be easier to keep safe as well as be a safer pet to have around.

  1. Listen when their owner calls
  2. Heeds requests to sit or heel
  3. Knows not to jump up on people
This, of course, is a skill of utmost importance to all pet owners. The boxer breed is known to be a clean animal that is amenable to being potty trained when given the right kind of instruction.
