I highly recommend Dog Training Elite North Orlando as the company to use for service training or in general. Craig, is a knowledgeable, caring, and patient person who helped my life change, during and ongoing, since he helped me guide my dog to become my service animal. He made me feel like I could accomplish my goals with the first phone call, listened to my issues and made changes when I needed them so we as a team could get the results I needed. He made me feel like a person not my disablities. I am glad I made the call and I highly recommend anyone looking for a service dog trainer you make the call too. Thank you Craig and his team!

Expert guidance and training for both owner and pet.

We had an outstanding experience working with Craig and his service dog training program for our dog, Pluto. From the very beginning, Craig demonstrated exceptional knowledge, patience, and professionalism. He took the time to understand Pluto’s personality and tailored the training to meet his specific needs. The transformation in Pluto has been incredible. His obedience, focus, confidence, and overall behavior have improved beyond our expectations. Craig not only trained Pluto but also educated us on how to maintain and reinforce the training at home, making the entire process successful and stress-free. What truly sets Craig apart is his genuine passion for dogs and his commitment to helping both dogs and their owners succeed. We always felt supported, informed, and confident throughout the training journey. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy service dog trainer, we highly recommend Craig. Thank you for helping Pluto become the amazing dog he is today! — Yaelee & Pluto 🐾

They are very patient and knowledgeable and explains different types of behavior, works with us individually, and the group classes are excellent for dogs to get to socializing!! I highly recommend dog training elite north Orlando and Craig, he does all aspects of training from service to behavioral. And is very kind.

Craig is very knowledgeable and experienced with training canines. He is also very patient with the dogs and their humans too. We chose him to help us with our rescue dogs, who were totally wild / abused youngsters. They are progressing rapidly and we are so happy to have made this investment on our fur babies. Highly recommend his outfit ! G&LT

Craig is an excellent trainer and an even better person. Craig took the time to explain the entire process, and it was incredibly gentle, easy, and effective. My Chihuahua is now so well trained and well behaved. She responds to commands quickly! The training gave me lasting results and so much more confidence. I would absolutely recommend Craig- Elite North Orlando - to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog trainer. I am beyond grateful for everything he did for us and our pup!

Craig and Miriam are an amazing team, working with the handle and dog. I personally was in need of a great deal of help to train my service dog to do multiple tasks. I followed their directives, today I have a life again. Through the training my dog, I able to live life to the fullest whether it be going to the mall, hospital, church or grocery shopping my service dog is there working right beside me to handle any task he is called upon. Craig and Miriam want help you and your dog succeed at any stage of life either of you are at, it will change your a d your dogs life for the better. Update renewed our full access as it has been 2 years. Best thing we done. I love having it on Harley as we enter museums, state buildings, private events and my corporate office. It taken the stress out of life, people understand he is working, they as who done his training because he so well behaved and we are always in invited back. Here Harley chilling on a custom built shelf next to me as I work. People think he snoozing until little do they know his nose and one eye is on guard 24 / 7 ready to retrieve medicine or provide pressure treatment if needed. Life good Thanks Craig keep up the good work.

I highly recommend Service Dog Training, especially our trainer, Craig, to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality service dog training. I’m very happy with the results and the positive impact this training has already had on our dog Pip. This definitely deserves 5 out of 5!

I had high standards and expectations when starting training with my dog Teddy and DTE North Orlando excited my every expectation! I did training for my dog to be a service animal and I couldn't have asked for a better trainer. Teddy was ready for training and Craig helped him reach his fullest potential. The weekend group classes were an added bonus for Teddys training. You can also find more videos of training for Teddy on TikTok @Tedders_talk.

Mr.Craig is a great trainer. I found the company using google search. I did not regret my decision. My dog begin training at 5 months and he has work hard to get we’re his at. Group class every weekend is great opportunity for any dog to get socialized. I loved my experience here.

The process was a challenge for Pluto and for us, but we are very happy with our service dog. Without you, it wouldn't have been possible. 100% recommended.

Craig has been an amazing trainer for my golden retriever since he was just 8 weeks old. We originally started training with the hope of him becoming my guide dog, but he turned out to be the sweetest lovey-dovey who just wants to love everyone he meets! Even though that path changed, Craig’s professionalism, knowledge, and patience made such a difference. My dog learned great manners, is incredibly well behaved in public, and is always a joy to take anywhere. Craig is truly great with animals, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and experienced trainer.

Craig did an amazing job training our mini-bernedoodles to become task-trained service dogs. We feel confident taking them in public and they have flown on over 15 flights since May, most of which are over 5 hours. Craig was very patient and helped the dogs go from puppies who needed obedience training to full service animals.

The training has been great, you can definitely see the gradual progress. The beginning vs present change is notable. It’s like meeting a brand new dog. Our dog Brandy was super hyperactive and reacted to anything that he saw outside pulling on the leash. Now he’s a-lot calmer and well behaved.

Thank you to Craig and DTE for helping us train our mini Bernedoodle! The one on one training and group classes are helping us so much. And it’s fun at the same time! We highly recommend. Thank you again!

We absolutely loved using Dog Training Elite to train our golden retriever. Craig was the perfect trainer to help with our dog and also gave us tips and tricks to keep working with our dog in between lessons. It was nice and easy that Craig came to our house so that we could translate the commands to the everyday environment that our dog would be in. We also love doing the group training classes so we can learn to focus and obey commands with distractions. Our dog’s behavior changed so fast after our lessons and our friends and family still comment on how good and how well trained he is. I will use Dog Training Elite for our future dogs and recommend them to any of our friends that are looking for training.

Absolutely adore Craig and staff. We transferred from the Venice location to our former home in the Orlando area and we were blessed with Craig. Whenever there's an issue with our Brussels Griffons Odile and Giselle we get a response within an hour ( most often less) and get a resolution to our issues. Craig is extremely polite as well as professional and ( at times) quite humorous. Our girls worship him as do we.

Craig transformed our dogs (2 miniature bernedoodles) behavior to be obedient task-trained service animals. Because of him, we have felt confident and comfortable to bring the dogs on 10 hour + flights. We couldn’t recommend enough!

Craig and his team did amazing getting Arthurtheservicedog to his full potential. Arthur is a rescued American pitbull terrier who today helps a veteran manage there PTSD.

I have been working with this company for a few months with my dog, Gucci. He has made so much progress with his temperament and overall. obedience. Being able to be more hands on with his training has taught me how to help him become successful and continue learning as he gets older. He has successfully passed his training test thanks to Craig!! I would highly recommend this company for training needs. Instead of just taking your dog away for training, they teach you the tools you need to be able to aid in the training process at home for on going and long-term success.
