    WOW was I impressed with the dog training here! I’ve gone to several others all over Nashville, but I just haven’t seen much progress with my dog’s behavior until one of my close friends from church recommended this place. I own a vizsla and if anyone knows anything about vizslas is that they’re cute but crazy and highly energetic dogs. Going here and training my lovely dog has made him keep the cuteness, but cut out the chaotic behavior. Thanks again this place has saved me so much time and energy. If I ever get another dog the FIRST thing I’ll do is bring them here

    I’m so glad that I took my dog Kenji to Dog Training Elite. Kenji as a puppy was very chaotic and would always jump on us and would pull on the leash whenever we’d take him out for runs and walks. He would also chew up all our shoes. But not after taking him here, Kenji has learned to no jump on us or guests and is obedient to our commands on walks. And they have eliminated Kenji’s chewing habits.Highly recommend Dog Training Elite, they are so kind to the dogs and are very professional and friendly.

    My experience here with my dog Rocky was unbelievable and necessary! Before his training he was overly excited, unsure how to interact properly with people, barked constantly, and wasn’t potty trained. After his training here all of these issues were fixed! I absolutely recommend to train your dog here with them! Rocky is such a good boy now!

    My dog is super friendly but used to be so wild- she would bark all the time, jump up on guest, and always pull at the leash on walks to go say hi to other dogs or people. After putting her through the program here, she has become so much better! She is still so loving but she’s much better about jumping up on people and is much more polite on walks! It’s been a great experience for us through Dog Training Elite!

    Dog Training Elite completely changed my dog’s behavior for the better. Before training, my dog struggled with listening, pulling on the leash, and staying calm around other dogs and people. After working with their trainers, the improvement has been insane—in the best way. My dog is more obedient, calmer, more confident, and actually listens to commands now (which I didn’t think was possible 😅). The trainers are super professional, patient, and really know what they’re doing. They don’t just train the dog—they train you too, so you actually understand how to keep the progress going at home. Everything is clear, structured, and tailored to your dog’s personality, not some one-size-fits-all method. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Dog Training Elite is 100% worth it. My dog is happier, I’m less stressed, and our bond is way stronger now. Highly recommend.

    I was hesitant about paying for dog training. But now I realize it was the best investment I could make for my dog. He has so much more freedom now that he listens to commands reliably and this was an incredible experience thank you dog training elite!

    I am so grateful for Parker at dog training elite. My dog used to bark anytime we stopped petting him, but now he doesn’t bark at us anymore. He is an amazing housemate and I’m so glad that we decided to go with DTE for dog training.

    I loved my experience with dog training elite! They helped me so much by taking my dog from being a menace to being a sweet girl! Millie is my micro golden doodle and I am so proud of where she is at now after dog training. The private lessons and group lessons were awesome!

    This is THE place to go for any dog training. Parker and his team are truly the BEST. They treat dogs and their owners with respect and kindness which can turn any feisty pup into a smart and reliable dog & friend.

    Before training, my dog struggled with leash pulling, jumping, and not listening when it mattered most. After working with this trainer, the difference is unbelievable. They were patient, knowledgeable, and truly cared about my dog’s success. If you’re thinking about getting your dog trained, do it. This has been one of the best investments I’ve made. Highly recommend!

    Kenna, Montana & Parker all worked with our dogs and us to create an amazing foundation for us to train both our pups. We have experienced great progress with everything they taught us and them. It is worth the money as long as you are willing to put in the time with your dog. We are looking forward to the remaining group trainings. Thanks Kenna, Parker & Montana for working with us.

    Awesome experience with Dog Training Elite!!! They have been helping us with our Labrador and we have seen him make continual progress since day 1. They have been great with helping us address problem behaviors. The instruction we’ve received has empowered us to shape the behaviors we want our dog to display and stop the ones that have been a problem. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!

    Dog Training Elite was awesome! Couldn’t recommend them enough. My dog would get super hyper/aggressive around the kids and other dogs. Now they are much more tame and their behavior improved greatly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for effective and compassionate training!
