Are Dog Training Group Classes Necessary?

Dog Training Elite knows dog training is truly a lifelong pursuit. As your puppy or dog masters the basics, you can move onto more complicated tricks and training. Maybe you’ve progressed from “sit” to seeing how long they can hold it, or you’re working on taking your pet through an obstacle course.

It can be hard to come up with new ideas to train your dog, and after months of having structured training one-on-one with your pet it can be especially difficult to know what to do next. What will benefit both you and your dog the most?

We offer dog training classes near you for puppies and older dogs that may be the answer you’re looking for. While group training classes aren’t always necessary, they can be extremely beneficial to both your dog and you.

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.

Jackson was fantastic with my dog, Leo! He was patient, understanding, and explained things in a way that made it all feel easy and stress-free. Leo has learned so much, and our bond has strengthened in the process. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

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!

Jackson is great and patient with us! I appreciate all the work he put us to do and how well he is with Cooper! Little by little he gets better and better

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!

Building Social Skills and Community

Read Less

Classes are a mix of all dog breeds and sizes, and our classes provide necessary socialization skills and practice around high levels of distraction. We like to make our group classes exciting for both dogs and handlers, and we have created fun training games and an environment that feels less like a class and more like a social outing.

We are building a community and our dog training groups tend to feel like a family and less like a dog training group. Friends are made, bonds are formed, and both dogs and dog Owners look forward to their once a week group training sessions.

Signs Your Dog is Ready for Training

Read Less

Every dog can benefit from training, and it can sometimes be a lifelong pursuit. If you’re wondering if training is right for you, here are some signs your dog is ready for training:

Your Dog is Destructive: Whether it’s chewing on furniture or shoes, going to the bathroom in your house, or anything else your dog is not supposed to do -- it’s time to get them trained out of these sorts of behaviors. Even older dogs who were previously well-behaved may develop bad habits later in life and need a training refresher.
Your Dog is Aggressive: Aggression can manifest itself in multiple ways; perhaps your dog growls or snaps at you when you get close to his or her food, or toys. Even more concerning is when your dog is aggressive towards other dogs or humans. Yes, sometimes dogs play in a way that seems aggressive, but if your dog is lunging at or snapping at people or other dogs while you’re on walks, it’s time to get a trainer’s help.
Your Dog Misbehaves on Their Leash: Walking nicely on a leash does not come naturally to most dogs but it is something that can be learned. Again, even older dogs who previously walked well on a leash may start to act out.
Your Dog is Anxious or Fearful: If your dog is dealing with severe separation anxiety, or is fearful in new environments, a trainer can help. For separation anxiety a trainer will work with you and your dog on a routine to reassure your dog. General training, especially in group classes, can help dogs build confidence.
Your Dog Ignores You at the Park: Or on walks, or whenever you’re outside. If your dog is obedient when they’re in your home, but loses their mind outside, he or she would benefit from more training. Group classes can be especially helpful because they put your dog in a safe environment with the kinds of distractions you experience outside. Training your dog in situations where there are other distractions helps them learn to obey even when there are other stimulating sights and sounds.

The DTE Difference

Read Less

Regardless of whether it’s an in-home training session or a group class, the Dog Training Elite training method is the same. We focus on “Classical Conditioning” or the “Pavlovian” method. Research has shown this approach as more effective with longer lasting results than other training methods.

We do not use harsh punishments or shock collars and instead pair balanced training with an electronic collar for superior results. An electronic collar is not a shock collar and does not harm the dog. It is a gentle electronic pulse, similar to the tug of a leash, used to get the dog’s attention. It is never used as a punishment for bad behavior.

Other dog trainers use harsh static collars or spray collars which have been shown to be less effective. The difference becomes clear when comparing a dog that is trained out of anxiety and intimidation vs. a dog who truly desires to please from the inside out. Our method nurtures a dog’s loving and naturally obedient nature.

Benefits of Group Classes

Just like humans, dogs all have their own personalities. Some may receive and respond to all the training they need from private, one-on-one instruction, while others may find great benefit from attending a group class. Group classes can be a great asset to both dogs and their owners, since it provides them with many different situations and experiences they may not otherwise have.

Here are some other benefits of attending group dog training classes:

Socialization

Group dog training classes have a number of benefits, particularly with socialization. Taking a puppy to group classes once they’re immunized will help them grow into a well-socialized dog comfortable with other dogs and humans. Older dogs who weren’t well socialized as puppies can learn to socialize in a small, safe environment. Trainers will recognize signs of possible conflict between dogs and help owners learn how to diffuse situations and take care of their pets, and dogs will learn how to interact appropriately with each other.

Dog training classes can also be beneficial for owners! If you bring your dog to a group class, you’ll meet other dog owners and become part of a community. Dog Training Elite likes to make group classes exciting for both dogs and their owners, so expect to learn fun training games and enjoy an environment that feels less like a class and more like a social outing. Classes meet once a week, and both you and your dog will look forward to going every week.

Focus

Besides the socialization benefits, group classes are a great tool for dogs to learn to work around distractions. If your dog is perfectly obedient at home, but loses his or her mind at the dog park and forgets all they’ve learned, group classes are the way to go. Group classes are a safe way to help your dog learn to listen to you, even when they’re surrounded by exciting sights, smells and sounds.

Hands on Learning

In a dog training class, you are in control of the training. While your pooch may occasionally be used as the ‘demo’ dog, there will be very few instances where your dog only has to listen to the trainer. With a class, you are the trainer, and the instructor is just acting as a guide. With all of Dog Training Elite’s training options - in-home or through a class - you will always be the No. 1 trainer, not just sitting on the sidelines as someone else takes charge.

Each dog is unique, and the small classes at Dog Training Elite Katy will allow you and your dog to still receive personalized attention and training. You will also have the opportunity to learn from other dogs and their owners. Imagine the trainer advises another owner how to help their dog learn to play independently. Later, you might remember the advice and apply it to your own dog, away from the class.
