Positive Reinforcement Training


Read More
Read Less

Positive reinforcement is widely recognized as one of the most effective and humane methods for training puppies and adult dogs. This training approach focuses on rewarding desired behaviors rather than punishing unwanted ones.

This method is especially beneficial for puppies as it helps them develop confidence and trust their owners from an early age. Rewards such as treats, praise, or toys encourage puppies to repeat good behaviors, making the learning process effective and enjoyable. For adult dogs, positive reinforcement is equally effective. It shapes desired behaviors and helps prevent the development of bigger issues like anxiety, aggression, or destructive tendencies.

Why Dog Training Elite is Committed to Positive Reinforcement

At Dog Training Elite, we believe dogs learn best when they feel secure, loved, and motivated. That’s why we incorporate positive reinforcement into all of our training programs. Our approach is based on the idea that rewarding good behavior leads to lasting results, helping your dog develop the skills they need to succeed in any environment.

By focusing on positive reinforcement, we teach your dog obedience and strengthen the bond between you and your pet, making the training experience rewarding for both of you. Whether you’re working on basic commands, advanced obedience, or addressing specific behavioral issues, our commitment to positive reinforcement ensures your dog’s training is effective and humane.

    Our dog is a very willful herding dog, but thanks to our trainer Kayla, we are learning how to control him. As a result of firm direction he is steadily becoming a calmer and more obedient dog. Four stars. 100% recommend. I don’t often say that about expensive services, but it was worth every penny. We were at the end of our rope with this dog and they saved us!

    Kyla was terrific! My Bernedoodle would immediately calm down the minute Kyla walked into the house. I loved working with her. I also learned a lot! Highly recommend her.

    I highly recommend Dog Training Elite. My experience convinced me it's worth every penny. All trainers are professional, available to answer any question and guide you through each step of your dog's training. I was blessed to find the perfect match for my still unruly 2-year young rescue Lab mix in Clayton. He’s been very patient and inspiring for both of us, conquering Paco’s trust since the first meeting, encouraging him to experiment new things and overcome his fears. Clayton seemed to truly understand my dog’s personality and tailored his training on specific tasks and obedience goals.Paco blossomed under his guidance, leaving behind any reactive behavior and becoming responsive to commands even in stressful situations. I also learned to overcome my fear of hurting Paco using the e-collar after Clayton showed me how to use it safely. I’ll keep taking Paco to the group lessons now that he completed his training. He’ll enjoy seeing Clayton again and practice together with Whopple and his other dog-buddies.

    After five sessions with Clayton, my dog doesn’t lunge on the leash anymore. He is learning to calm down around other dogs, and ignore distractions. The best part is that I am learning how to communicate to him the behavior that I want. This has been the most effective dog training I’ve experienced, and I’ve had dogs all my life.

    This review is too long coming! My pup Sutti (an 18 month old whoodle (wheaten terrier poodle crossbreed) and I have been working with Clayton from Dog Training Elite for the past five months. In that time she's learned so much. In addition to walking without pulling, sit, lie down, place and other basic commands, she's well on her way to being a psychiatric service dog for my PTSD. She's currently learning how to alert and ground via (DPT - deep pressure therapy) for panic attacks and received her preliminary service dog certification. They've also been flexible about scheduling, something I've appreciated a great deal as my job requires travel and odd hours. My husband and I recommend Dog Training Elite and, especially, Clayton highly.

    We couldn’t be happier with Dog Elite Training Los Angeles! Our Yorkie Terrier is currently in training to become a service dog, and the experience has been amazing from day one. The trainer Clayton is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and truly care about the dogs he work with. I was a little unsure at first since Yorkies are small with a big attitude, but Clayton never doubted her potential. They created a training plan tailored to her needs, and we’ve already seen such a huge improvement in her focus, obedience, and ability to perform tasks. It’s been incredible to watch her grow and gain confidence. What I love most is how supportive and hands-on Clayton is. He make sure we understand each step of the process so we can continue the training at home. It’s clear he is passionate about what he do, and it really shows in the results. If you’re looking for expert service dog training in LA, I highly recommend Dog Elite Training. They’ve made such a difference for us, and I’m so excited to see how far our little Yorkie goes!

    I cannot recommend Clayton highly enough as a service dog trainer! From day one, his expertise, patience, and dedication were evident. He took the time to understand my specific needs and tailored the training to ensure my dog developed the skills necessary to support me in daily life. At first, I wasn’t sure if my dog could successfully complete the training but I gain confidence after finding that Clayton was the best trainer in my area. Now, my dog has become an incredible partner, providing me with support I never thought possible. If you’re looking for a trainer who is skilled, kind, and truly invested in your success, Clayton is the one to go to. I’m beyond grateful for his guidance and would recommend him to anyone in need of service dog training!

    Dog Training Elite has been awesome! I had been thinking about getting my 3 year old mini goldendoodle some training for a while now and wish I had started sooner. We have been working with Clayton who has been very knowledgeable and the progress my pup has made after just 4 sessions with him has been incredible! My pup used to always pull on his leash and get overly excited and out of control when interacting with other dogs on walks and that has now completely changed. I look forward to even more progress as we work with Clayton to get my pup trained as a service animal. Definitely recommend Dog Training Elite and Clayton.

    Dog Training Elite has been an incredible experience. Greg met with us to decide which dog would be trainable out of the liter which was very helpful. We were looking for a trainer who could help us train our puppy all the way thru to a service animal. Clayton, our trainer has been amazing working my son and our puppy. He is very respectful and knowledgeable. The puppy is responding beyond our expectations to the training. We are very grateful and highly recommend this company and especially Clayton as a trainer. Thank you!!!

    I cannot recommend Clayton, Elite Dog Training, highly enough for anyone struggling with a reactive GSD, When I first reached out, I was feeling overwhelmed and frustrated with my dog's reactivity towards other dogs. Clayton not only understood my concerns but also provided a clear, structured plan to help us both. From our very first meeting, Clayton took the time to assess my dog's behavior thoroughly. He listened to my experiences and helped identify specific triggers for my dog's reactivity. This initial assessment set the stage for a tailored training program that felt achievable Clayton gradually introduced my dog to controlled environments, allowing him to encounter triggers at a comfortable distance and the tools/instructions to counter these triggers The progress we made was remarkable! Within a few weeks, Luger showed significant improvement. Clayton provided practical strategies that I could use which empowered me as an owner. If you're facing similar challenges, I wholeheartedly recommend Clayton and Elite Dog Training. Their expertise and patience can truly transform your relationship with your dog. Thank you, Clayton, for your incredible work!

    I cannot recommend Dog Training Elite enough! Clayton has been incredible in helping me to train my terrier/pit bull mix. He's patient and clearly loves dogs. My dog was instantly comfortable with him. I'm already planning on adding more sessions because Clayton has helped me see just how much my dog is capable of!

    My experience with Clayton was fantastic. He understands the nature of dogs really well and is therefore able to adapt his training style to the specific personality of your dog to achieve immediate improvements of critical dog behavior with great results. I can only recommend Clayton as an experienced dog trainer who delivers great results in a short period of time.

    I honestly cannot say enough good things about Dogs Elite training! I rescued a ~5 year old male German Shepherd 5 months ago who was a lot to handle. He was a sweet enough boy and playful with my other GSD, but terrible to walk and dog reactive. I spent thousands with another trainer to be disappointed and only witness mild improvement; I felt like this poor dog was too much for me. So I interviewed a few other trainers and decided on Dogs Elite. What sold me on them is the final goal of walking him on a “J leash” (meaning a relaxed leash). Sure that sounds great and like I’m in control, but the real meaning behind it is transferring leadership from the dog to you. Rescues have had to be hyper-vigilant to survive, so that’s a lot of “on” energy. Once YOU are trained how to lead your dog, they can relax and be a dog who enjoys a comfy life going on walks and meeting other dogs at the dog park. Today was my 6th session with Clayton and I never thought my Jack would succeed in a dog park without incident, I couldn’t be more wrong. Look at this face after class: he’s happy, learning was a joy and not something negative, and he’s relaxed. He’s a different dog and I’m so happy to see these behavioral changes in him. It never would’ve happened with training that didn’t tap in to the psychology of his mind. I’m so grateful to what Clayton has done for us!!

    I highly recommend Dog Training Elite for all your dog training needs. My partner and I rescued a 3.5 yr old puggle who exhibited episodes of aggression and actually bit my partner after a stressful road trip. I found DTE during my Google search of aggression-specialty dog training, and I'm so glad I did! Clayton, our trainer, does a fantastic job teaching both our rescue and us how to behave with each other, and continues to give us the right tools in helping us train our beloved rescue so that everyone has a good time. His patience while we all learn together has been invaluable. Also, just as an added plus for this program, DTE gives a discount for rescues! While the initial price tag may feel daunting, know that this is an investment you're making for both you and your dog, and everyone involved will be better off for it!

Our Balanced Theory

At Dog Training Elite, we believe in using a balanced approach for all of our training programs.

Here’s how our approach works:

We provide owners with the practical skills and knowledge needed to manage their dogs in any situation. Our hands-on training ensures owners feel confident and capable of continuing the training process independently.
Our programs are customized to the unique needs of each dog, taking into account factors such as breed, temperament, and specific behavioral issues. This personalized approach maximizes effectiveness and helps dogs reach their full potential.
We train dogs in familiar environments. Whether at home or in a public setting, we ensure the training is practical and relevant to everyday challenges. This ensures your dog behaves just as well in the doggy park as he does in the home.
Our commitment to you doesn’t end with the initial training program. We offer continued training and resources to help maintain and build on your dog’s progress, ensuring ongoing improvement for both you and your pet.
Training with Dog Training Elite is an investment in your dog’s long-term behavior and your peace of mind. Our programs lay the foundation for lifelong good behavior and strong bonds, providing lasting benefits for you and your canine companion.

In-Home Training

Read More
Read Less

When it comes to dog training, many facilities only offer group classes. While these classes can be beneficial in certain situations, they often fail to address specific behavioral issues and provide personalized attention. Group classes tend to focus on general obedience in a controlled environment, which may not accurately reflect your dog's real-life challenges at home.

Benefits of In-Home Training

At Dog Training Elite, we prioritize in-home training before introducing them to group settings. Here’s why in-home training is an important first step:

  • Training in a Familiar Environment: In-home training occurs where your dog spends most of their time. This familiar setting helps your dog feel secure and comfortable, making it easier for them to learn and retain new behaviors.
  • Personalized Attention: Our trainers focus on your dog's specific behavioral challenges, providing customized solutions. This one-on-one approach ensures your dog gets the attention they need to succeed.
  • Fewer Distractions: Unlike group classes, in-home training minimizes distractions, allowing your dog to focus better on the lessons. By eliminating the chaos of group environments, we can address behaviors more effectively.
  • Involvement of the Whole Family: In-home training encourages active participation from all family members. This collaborative approach ensures everyone is on the same page, reinforcing consistent commands and behaviors across the board.

At Dog Training Elite, we offer both in-home training and group classes. It’s important to note we only introduce your pup to group classes when our trainers and you feel comfortable doing so.

By working one-on-one with your pup before they meet other friends, we address the root causes of their behavior and ensure they are well-behaved in the place that matters most–your home.

For many dog owners, having a well-behaved dog that can be trusted off-leash is a top goal, but it’s not always easy to achieve. Off-leash obedience requires a high level of training, where your dog listens and responds, even in a distracting environment.

At Dog Training Elite, we specialize in Los Angeles off-leash training. Our programs are made to match each dog’s unique temperament and behavior, ensuring the training is both effective and long-lasting. With years of experience handling all types of dogs, Dog Training Elite helps you achieve confidence in your pet, whether on leash or off.
