What Role Does Breed Play?


Read More
Read Less

When it comes to training your dog, understanding their breed can be crucial for achieving the best results. While all dogs generally share qualities like loyalty, kindness, and intelligence, specific breeds often have unique traits that influence their behavior and learning style. For instance, dogs bred for working roles, such as Border Collies or German Shepherds, tend to be more energetic and intelligent, excelling in tasks that challenge their minds and bodies. On the other hand, companion breeds like Bulldogs or Shih Tzus may have a more laid-back demeanor, requiring a different approach that emphasizes patience and balanced training.

At Dog Training Elite Katy, we recognize the importance of considering these breed-specific tendencies when developing a training plan. Our approach tailors methods to suit your dog’s natural instincts and behaviors, whether they are a high-energy herder, a protective guardian, or a relaxed companion. This personalized strategy ensures that your dog reaches their full potential, creating a well-behaved and happy companion that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

    I am pleased to recommend Jan as a professional dog trainer. Jan possesses an exceptional ability to guide dog owners in becoming effective handlers. His approach includes thorough explanations of canine behaviors and practical strategies for correction, fostering a strong bond between owners and their dogs while effectively addressing challenges. Throughout our training term, Jan was consistently available for phone consultations to discuss any issues that arose, and he provided insightful solutions during our subsequent classes. His commitment to his clients and their dogs is truly commendable. I strongly endorse Jan as an outstanding choice for your dog’s training needs. The success of dog training is contingent not only on the dogs themselves but significantly on the expertise of the trainer, and Jan exemplifies this standard.

    Jan did a fantastic job helping train Luna. She is officially a service dog now. The whole team at Dog Elite were great. Thanks Alex, Jan, Ashley and front office! Just 7 months and Luna went from unruly, disobedient, hard headed to a FANTASTIC SERVICE DOG for my daughter. We can't thank you enough.

    Exceptional experience with Dog Training Elite - Jan is Amazing! We recently had the pleasure of working with Jan from Dog Training Elite for our Cane Corso, Murray. From our first meeting, it was clear that Jan is not only a highly skilled trainer but also deeply passionate about dogs and their owners. Jan tailored our training sessions specifically to meet the needs of our Cane Corso, taking the time to understand his unique personality and behavior. His approach is both compassionate and effective, helping to build a strong bond of trust between us. Jan's expertise in addressing specific behavioral issues has made a world of difference in our dog's responsiveness and overall demeanor. One of the standout aspects of Jan's training is his ability to communicate complex concepts in easily understandable terms. He provided us with practical tools and techniques that we could implement at home, making it easy to reinforce the training in our daily routine. What impressed us most was Jan's patience and dedication. He genuinely cares about the success of his clients. With his guidance, we have become more confident in ourselves and Murray’s potential to become a well mannered balanced dog we can take anywhere. We wholeheartedly recommend Jan and Dog Training Elite to anyone in need of dog training services. Whether you have a puppy or a more challenging breed, Jan has the skills and knowledge to make a positive impact. Thank you, Jan, for your incredible work and for helping us create a harmonious relationship with our Cane Corso!

    If you are considering a training place for your dog, this is definitely the place I’d recommend for you. The trainers are very professional, the process is very easy, and the prices are very competitive. I was able to get my two dogs started in training in less than two weeks. Mikaela is super nice and helpful, and the trainers Jan and Ash are the best! So patient, so dedicated, and knowledgeable. My dogs are now at week 2 of in facility training and they are doing great!

    Dog Training Elite has been one of the best investments my husband & I have made. Our shepherd is night and day in comparison to where we began. We are excited to see where his training will continue to guide both him and us. We really appreciate our trainer, Jackson. He has taken the time to hear our concerns & always leaves us with feedback & ways to combat my dog Rams tendencies to rush & jump on me. We continue to be a work in progress but seeing as though I couldn’t simply walk Ram on a leash before without being dragged down the street, to him letting me to take the lead now, listening to basic obedience and continues to improve with his behavior has been a joy for us. We 100% recommend Dog Training Elite, we felt good about this decision from the beginning when we had our assessment. Again, the trainer then gave us so much insight & that was before we even decided to move forward with the training.

    After getting the free assessment from a very helpful and informative trainer, Jan Hernandez, I decided to get the platinum in home training for my aggressive and anxious dog. It’s been 3 weeks and I can already see exciting improvement. Jan is my dogs trainer he is very professional and his confidence and knowledge of dogs puts my mind at ease that he knows what he’s doing. He is able to answer every question I have has a great advice, tricks and tips for training. And anytime I have questions during the week someone responds with help. I’d really recommend dog training elite and Jan if you are looking for dog training and if you have an aggressive anxious/reactive dog like me. Also side note- My dog, at the free assessment, who is 60lbs, who’s hair was sticking up, and was aggressively barking at Jan to the point of standing up (my dog was held back by a leash) Jan immediately calmed him down after meeting him just that moment! My crazy dog was acting like himself after being aggressive a second prior! It was very cool.

    Dog training has been such a worthwhile investment both for my dog and myself. Everything we have been working on has helped so much to increase impulse control and decrease separation anxiety, and has given us tools to deal with his reactivity. This is our foster and I feel hopeful that training has given him the chance and structure he never had and we will get him to an adoptable place. Highly recommend!

While we look at what challenges owners face with specific breeds, the key to dog training is maintaining a consistent schedule to ensure the desired behavior you seek.

The training programs offered at Dog Training Elite Katy come in a general form, but we also provide breed-specific training to target breed-specific issues. Suppose your breed is highly energetic. In that case, we have programs to help you and your dog maintain an active and healthy lifestyle while ensuring that your dog retains the standard obedience training that any dog needs.

Though breed-specific training is taken into account, all of Dog Training Elite’s training programs are based on a foundation of consistency and balance.
