The Benefits of Puppy Training

Read More

Our classes help your pup grow into a well-behaved dog. Here are a few benefits you can expect from choosing our elite training:

  • Deepen Your Bond With Your Puppy: Training your puppy – and continuing training with new tricks as they get older – is a great way to bond closely. Puppies have a natural desire to please and will learn to rely on you for guidance and direction, establishing a foundation of trust and love.
  • Socialize Your Dog: Obedience training, especially with group classes, helps dogs become comfortable and well-socialized around other dogs and people. This is important for when you want to take your dog on walks or invite people into your home.
  • Improve Your Dog’s Safety: Training your dog to listen and obey your commands will help them stay safe in any situation. Learning commands like “down,” “leave it,” “stop,” and “wait” can keep your dog safe from messing with dangerous things like electrical cords and other situations outdoors.
  • Provide Mental Stimulation: Good dogs can become bad dogs if they don’t have a way to work out physical and mental energy. Training as a lifelong pursuit is a great way to challenge your dog mentally and keep them engaged.

    The training ia going well and my dog, Martini, seems enjoy learning. I cant wait to get the ok for the group classes, because I think that will really help her impulse control

    We’re so grateful for the help we received from Craig as we prepared our dog for the arrival of our baby girl! Our pup had been struggling with barking and some anxiety, but with Craig’s guidance, we saw a huge improvement. Not only is he barking less, but he has also picked up new commands (like “quiet”) and seems so much more relaxed and happy overall. The training was gentle, clear, and tailored to our family’s needs—and it gave us so much peace of mind going into this big life change. Highly recommend!

    Cheyenne and Keri took time to bond with my dogs before training began. They were peaceful and kind- demonstrating, evaluating, and providing great suggestions to help us learn to communicate and give better guidance to our furbabies.

    I am incredibly grateful to Dog Training Elite for the amazing work they’ve done with my dog! From the very beginning, it was clear that their team genuinely cares about both the dogs and their owners. I truly value the time they’ve spent with us, not just in training but in offering support, guidance, and reassurance every step of the way. I couldn’t be more thankful for their commitment to helping us succeed. If you’re looking for a dog trainer that goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Dog Training Elite. They are worth every minute and every penny!

    The DTE team is amazing!! Everyone I have met on the team has been wonderful to include the team members on four legs. Maverick and I enjoy each and every training session, we are learning so much. The knowledge and experience of the DTE team is exceptional, they can teach an old dog tricks (me).

    Craig was instrumental in helping us train our Goldendoodle puppy, Tally. He is patient and easy to work with. Dog Training Elite North Orlando has a great program and Tally is well behaved after going through training. She loves the group training in the park and we enjoy taking her with us to places now that she has manners. We highly recommend Craig and Dog Training Elite North Orlando.

    Cheyenne has been great to work with. Our primary goal was reliable off-leash recalls. Our Newfoundland "knew" his commands, but only did them when he felt like it and he definitely never felt like coming when called! Our dog was not a super quick learner, but Cheyenne was steady and patient. The transformation has been amazing. We can hike off leash, he doesn't run up to other dogs or people and he comes when called--even when there's something very interesting I want him to leave. Definitely recommend!

    I've been training with Dog Training Elite Orlando for many months now and have had a great experience with all of the trainers. Today Cheyenne administered our service dog test and I'm so pleased to say we passed. DTE has prepared us so well in our training over the months and we are excited to continue working with them to ensure he is the best service dog he can be!

    Craig Pizer of North Orlando ELITE Dog Training did an AMAZING job with my boy. He is a service dog for an American Veteran Hero who is an amputee that depends on him daily. Through Craig’s training he knows his job, loves going every where and is a great example of a well trained dog that’s confident in his abilities. Craig approach uses positive reinforcement training him to make the right decision allowing him to build his confindence for every situation. Thank you Craig Pizer owner of Elite Dog Training of North Orlando, Fl.

    We’ve had a great experience with Dog Training Elite! Craig is fantastic, knowledgeable, patient, and clearly passionate about what he does. The one-on-one sessions helped us build a strong foundation, and the group classes have been a great way to reinforce those skills around distractions. We’ve seen real progress and feel so much more confident as dog owners. Highly recommend!

    I first met Craig after countless attempts and years of efforts of finding a service dog. Craig went above and beyond to help me eventually be paired with Shay. Upon meeting Shay, I knew that she was an extremely well trained girl (as she was trained by Craig for more than a year) and that will help me as soon as she completed her service task training. Craig and his team worked with me to identify all the ways in which Shay will assist in time of need. Not only was her training impeccable, but he also made himself readily available (even after moving out of state) to answer any and all of my questions. I am happy to share that Shay is a working service dog that accompanies me everywhere and is there for me in my time of medical need. It is without exaggeration that I say that both Craig and Shay have made me feel in control of my life and health again. I am forever grateful and will never be able to fully express my gratitude.

    Dog training elite is the real deal! Make the investment. I took my first dog to 2 different trainers (over 12 weeks of classes) and nothing stuck. We recently adopted a second dog and hired dog training elite and I wish I started with them from the start. All of the trainers are extremely knowledgeable and talented. If you are on the fence just go for it you will not be disappointed.

    Maria from Dog Training Elite is absolutely amazing! From the very first session, she demonstrated incredible knowledge, patience, and a true passion for working with dogs. She took the time to understand our dog’s unique personality and tailored the training to fit our needs perfectly. Her positive reinforcement approach made a huge difference, and we saw noticeable improvements in behavior almost immediately. Not only is Maria great with dogs, but she also does a fantastic job educating owners, making sure we feel confident in continuing the training at home. If you’re looking for a skilled, compassionate, and dedicated trainer, I highly recommend Maria! She has truly made a lasting impact on our dog’s behavior and our overall experience as pet owners. Thank you, Maria, for everything!

Training Essentials for Your Puppy

Here are a few puppy training tips from the expert team at Dog Training Elite! If you have any questions or want to see these methods in action, give us a call. We are more than happy to show you a demonstration and provide you with a glimpse of what our professional team can do!

At Dog Training Elite, we believe in positive reinforcement and yummy treats do the trick! We recommend a high-quality, berry-sized reward that your puppy will enjoy. Rewarding your dog while training teaches them that you approve of that behavior and maintains their motivation to perform well.
Because you’ll be handing out lots of treats, you will probably want a treat bag or pouch. There are many options out there with different sizes, shapes, and ways to carry. The benefit of getting a treat pouch is the ease of access and the ability to reward your puppy quickly. If you aren’t interested in getting a treat pouch, we recommend getting a small bag to carry you puppy’s rewards.
A clicker is a great tool to have along with rewards when training a puppy. With a clicker, you can immediately provide a positive sound when your dog performs a correct behavior, and then you can reward them with a treat. Pairing a clicker with treats is a great way to instill positive reinforcement because you teach your dog that they get a treat when they hear a click. You can buy many kinds of clickers at your local pet store, and they even have helpful clicker apps.
A good leash is another essential when bringing home a new puppy. We suggest a leash made of a durable material like leather and about 6 feet long to allow for comfortable room for both of you. Training your dog on a leash will set you up for fun walks in the future, keep your dog safe, and prevent them from getting lost while out of the house. It is also beneficial for an excited puppy who wants to run around and play while training.
You'll need a sturdy collar or harness to attach a leash while training. Deciding between a flat collar or body harness is up to your personal preference, but it is good to consider your dog's comfort and demeanor. A collar is necessary while training and for safety while out and about. A collar/harness is also the best place to attach the identification for your puppy. If anything happened to your dog, you'd be glad you had a collar with your information on it!
Getting a dog crate is a great way to housetrain your puppy. You will want to get a durable and safe crate for your dog that has enough room for them to be comfortable. You want the crate to be a place of calm and safety for your dog, not a punishment zone. Getting your puppy crate trained gives you a safe space in your home to keep them while they are unsupervised and also prevents unwanted behaviors like chewing or peeing inside.
