Dog Training in Karns, TN

Rhett is fantastic and you can tell that he really cares about the dogs and building the foundations so their quality of life is improved long term. Great session. Thank you!

Trainer Rhett does an awesome job with explaining the program and tailoring to the specific needs of the pup and client. He is really good at breaking down the instructions with the e-collar, explaing command expectations, and boosting the confidence of the client and of the pup. My once fearful dog and my worried self now know how to handle the challenges ahead.

I genuinely love the work that Dog Training Elite does. My dog and I have specifically loved to work with Rhett. He comes in with a great attitude and gives full attention to the dogs NEEDS which I feel is very important

Parker was very calm and relaxed and listened to my questions and concerns. Made us feel comfortable working with him on training our dog.

Good visit we'll informed of the training process! Very friendly your man!!

Very professional, focused on previous weak areas and ensured the appropriate progress had been made. 10/10 highly recommend!

23 Apr 2026: Rhett was absolutely awesome working with my service dog in training. I had a gap in sessions due to medical reasons and he was great with instruction and getting us back on a structured path. Dog Training Elite has gone above and beyond in accommodating me in a rural area by coming out an hour and half just to make sure we are getting the training and resources we need! Watching my dog progress after each session and getting the handler skills needed to continue work between instructor lead sessions is really an amazing to experience. 06 Aug 2025: First day of training was exceptionally informative. Julia was extremely professional and knowledgeable instilling confidence moving forward. I definitely know I made the right choice for my service dog needs. 18 Sept 2025: Fast forward into a few sessions later and still absolutely impressed with the level of professionalism and results

Professional and helpful.

Rhett was excellent working with Dixie! She is normally skiddish of new people, especially males. He knew the right way to approach her, and had her by his side within minutes of first meeting her. Highly recommend!!!

Rhett is super focused on what our family needs from our training sessions. He always asks if we have questions. Our dog is a challenge and he is very creative with ways to help us keep her engaged. Rhett is a great asset.

From the moment I sent the initial request email, to Parker showing up the very next day, the entire experience has been wonderful! We chose the Platinum package and already have our first appointment scheduled this week!! I’ve already picked up a few techniques to help with our dog’s patience, and they’re already working! Our main challenge has been barking—especially at other dogs, whether they’re walking by or on TV. Our dog isn’t aggressive at all, just excited and a bit overly talkative. We’re really excited to continue working with Parker and the rest of the team to help make life a little quieter (and calmer) for everyone!!!

Parker did a great job helping me with my Blue tick! Would highly recommend his program for owners looking to learn how to properly train their dogs.

Amber is very knowledgeable and gave us homework that makes sense and is easy to understand and apply

Julia has been amazing working with us and our Cane Corso puppy

Very kind and went over everything

Austin did a great job coaching. He conti loudly provided me with clear guidance and good tips. I hope we get him again.

First training with Kenna went great! Our little Poppy loved it. We’re so excited to start this journey!

We thought your representative was pleasant and confident that she could help us with our training needs.

Reina was very informative, calm and explained everything so we could understand.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Reina as my dog trainer, and I cannot recommend her more highly. From start to finish, she demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and dedication that truly sets her apart. Reina’s approach to training is both structured and personalized. She takes the time to assess your dog’s unique personality and learning style, then tailors her methods accordingly. One of the things I appreciated most was her step-by-step explanations for every exercise and command. She didn’t just show me what to do—she explained why we were doing it, how it benefits the dog, and what to watch for in my dog’s behavior. This level of detail made the learning process so much clearer and easier to follow. Throughout every session, Reina was incredibly patient and encouraging, with both me and my dog. She managed to create an environment that was positive and fun, while still being highly productive. Her instructions were easy to understand, and she made sure I felt confident and capable before moving on to the next step. She also took extra time to answer my questions and point out small things I might have missed, like subtle body language cues from my dog or slight adjustments to my technique that made a big difference. The results speak for themselves: my dog has made tremendous progress, and I feel much more equipped to continue reinforcing the training at home. Reina’s professionalism, knowledge, and natural ability to communicate with both dogs and people make her an outstanding trainer.
