Brad was an excellent choice for training Piper. He was very knowledgeable and patient with Piper and us. I would recommend him to anyone but his services.

I'm the owner of 5 large dogs. My German Shepherd had started being aggressive toward my other dogs. I knew Brad had his work cut out for him, the first day was super intense. Brad worked his skills and got her under control. By the end of our training I have a different dog now and the knowledge to start training the rest of my pack. Brad was wonderful and I enjoyed working with him.

We loved working with Brad! He provided top-notch instruction and support for our Golden Retriever. We were blown away by how well Brad was able to care for and work with, not only Wesley, but us as well. Making sure we had all the knowledge necessary to continually work with Wesley. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite of Greater Nashville!

Our Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville experience was outstanding from the first moment to the end session! Brad not only made us feel comfortable, he approached us with humor as well, which is our comfort zone! He quickly learned our baby and honed in with patience and his lessons stuck due to his consistent approach with both our dog and us! I highly recommend to anyone needing their proof. This is it!

I was very pleased with the specialized coaching and detailed training skills that Brad (Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville) shared with me and my dog. His precise yet gentle training approach was spot on for my disability needs. Brad’s training instructions were instrumental in guiding us become a better and more effective service dog team. The home training sessions exceeded my expectations every week; we had a familiar environment in which we learned, practiced and troubleshoot new skills. Think about it, an expert coming to your home to do dog training - You can’t beat that! This is just some of the reasons that I am so glad I found this company and that Brad is our trainer!

We can’t say enough amazing things about our experience with Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville and our incredible trainer, Brad! Our 4-year-old Icelandic Sheepdog, Kylo has with a very enthusiastic herding instinct—cars, birds, squirrels, rabbits, even small children on our walks were all fair game in his eyes. But from the very first session, we were blown away by how well Kylo responded to Brad’s calm, confident guidance. Brad brought a perfect mix of kindness, patience, and consistent leadership to each session, and it was clear he genuinely loved working with dogs. We saw noticeable improvement after every visit, and best of all, Kylo was having the time of his life learning and growing. Brad made training fun for all of us—not just effective! Thanks to Dog Training Elite, walks are no longer chaotic but enjoyable, and we feel so much more connected to our pup. If you’re looking for someone who brings heart, professionalism, and real results, Brad and the team at Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville are second to none. We wholeheartedly recommend them!

Brad was the best when it comes to working with my dog! Highly recommend to anyone with a dog that needs training!

I was impressed by Brad at Dog Training Elite. After working with my Australian Shepherd, who is a handful she is definitely a different dog . He has built up her confidence and she’s no longer scared of people . I would highly recommend any dog training . He is very patient and kind and he really loves the dogs.

Masterful and skilled! The best dog trainer I’ve ever met! He is so kind and compassionate also! Highly recommend!

Brad has changed my life! I can't say enough good things about this program but specifically about Brad himself. I came into this process uneducated, unsure, and anxious. After completing our 8 in-home one-on-one sessions I can truthfully say I am educated, sure, and no longer anxious! Brad made me feel comfortable from day one and met my dog where he was. Brad handled difficult situations with grace and never made me feel embarrassed or ashamed of my dogs behavior. I seriously cannot say enough good things - take the leap! It's well worth it.

Really appreciated the consistency and professionalism. Our puppy is much better behaved and continually getting better. So happy we did it.

Brad has been a tremendous resource for us and our new puppy. He is patient and has a wealth of knowledge that has proven to be very helpful in the training process! We would recommend him to anyone seeking some additional training resources for their dog!!

They were amazing at getting our five year old Great Pyrenees to not be reactive and listen better. Their techniques are doable and I cannot thank them enough! Such an improvement!

Brad is PHENOMENAL! His patience with our VERY stubborn 4 year old dog was incredible! He never wavered or showed any signs of frustration, but instead continued to confidently show his expertise and knowledge, even still somehow seeming to enjoy himself! Brad's care, compassion and passion for what he does is palpable. Our dog loves Brad!

The trainers at Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville were incredibly kind, patient, and encouraging, making the entire training process a positive and effective experience for both my family and our pup, ultimately transforming him into a well-behaved companion. With their exceptional expertise and caring approach, they helped us overcome our pup's behavioral issues and achieve the best results through their top-notch private in-home dog training.

It was such an enjoyable time watching Brad train our German Shepherd Kilo. I will recommend to everyone that needs a great company to train their dogs.

Brad and Dog Training Elite Nashville were the absolute best thing to ever happen to my dog. Our family has a miniature Aussie and boy is he a handful! Within 3 training sessions our dog Bandit was a new man! Once we were finished with our in home session it was like Brad had given us a new dog, it was amazing. I can’t speak highly enough of Brad and his ability to work with not just dogs but their owners. I would recommend them over and over!

Brad with Dog Training Elite has been FANTASTIC to work with. He is great at both dog training and training us to be confident and able to effectively train our dog outside of scheduled sessions. He has helped us be able to see and unlock our dog's potential. We thought we were doing okay on our own, but Brad has helped us take our dog's obedience to a whole new level. Highly recommend Dog Training Elite Greater Nashville.

Helped out tremendously!!!! Night and day difference from day 1!! Brad has been amazing!

We have been so pleased with the work of Brad Okeson at Dog Training Elite. He has done wonders with our facility dog. Our school counselor was able to reenforce the skills taught. Our dog is now able to work effectively with the children in our school and they are responsive to him. Brad has been personable and great to work with.
