    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.

    Working with Jaime was truly a game changer for us and our puppy, Buster. From the very beginning, Jaime went above and beyond in every single session. Before we started training, we felt a bit overwhelmed and honestly pretty hopeless. Buster is a smart pup, but we knew we had a long road ahead. That all changed after our very first consultation. Jaime immediately put us at ease with his confidence, knowledge, and clear love for what he does. He took the time to explain exactly how the training would work, step by step, and tailored the sessions to our goals. As the sessions went on, we were blown away by the progress we were making. It wasn’t just about teaching Buster commands — Jaime helped us build a foundation of trust, communication, and understanding with our dog. The transformation was incredible. By the end of our one on one sessions, we had a totally different dog, not only better behaved, but genuinely happier and more connected with us. And as dog owners, we feel so much more confident and empowered, too. What stood out most is Jaime’s passion for his work. It’s not just a job for him, it’s a calling. He’s deeply committed, patient, and genuinely cares about every dog and family he works with. That kind of dedication is rare and so appreciated. Thank you, Jaime, for helping us bring out the best version of Buster and ourselves as dog owners. We truly can’t recommend you enough!!!

    Cody has been our public access trainer through Dog Training Elite, and he’s been an essential part of Eevee’s journey to becoming an autism service dog for our 4-year-old son. From navigating busy stores to helping us prepare for real-life scenarios, Cody’s calm, confident approach has made every session valuable and effective. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure both Eevee and our family are comfortable and confident. It’s clear that he truly cares and is passionate about helping families like ours succeed. He’s not just a trainer—he’s become a trusted part of our support team, and we’re so thankful for the role he’s played in Eevee’s progress. If you’re in the OKC area and need a top-notch trainer who gets it, Cody is your guy!

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Dog Training Elite. I was really nervous to sign up for the service dog program. Kristin has been here for us every step of the way. From assisting me in picking out the correct breed and temperament for what I needed to answering my frantic text messages in between training sessions. She has been amazing. I would highly recommend this program.

    We’ve had such a great experience with Dog Training Elite as they’ve been working with our dog, Eevee, to become an autism service dog for our 4-year-old son. From day one, they’ve been incredibly detailed, professional, and compassionate. They truly understand the unique needs of families with children on the spectrum and have tailored Eevee’s training to support our son in the best way possible. Kristin and David have been absolutely amazing. They’re patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They’ve taken the time to explain everything clearly and always show up with encouragement and support. We’ve seen such real progress in Eevee’s skills and behavior, and it’s been incredible to see the bond growing between her and our son. If you’re looking for dedicated trainers who go above and beyond—especially for autism-related service training—Kristin, David, and the Dog Training Elite team are the ones to call!

    I really appreciate Elijah from Dog Training Elite as he has helped me so much in training my puppy. I love the program DTE offered me and get so many compliments on how well mannered my puppy is. My neighbors have been very complimentary on my puppys progress too!!! Program well put together with concise directions from my trainer. If i have questions in between sessions I can reach out to my trainer which has been wonderful. They worked with me in personalizing sessions as needed to address any concerns or problems I had in training my puppy. Group classes review and reinforce what has been learned in individual sessions. A great help. Elijah is truly a dog whisperer!!!!

    When we hired Dog Training Elite, we were in desperate need of help. Despite being a dachshund owner for almost 20 years, a new baby added a differently level of stress. Our doxies Otto and Ollie were gentle with the new baby, but so very territorial with incessant barking anytime they heard a delivery truck or when visitors stopped by, often waking the baby from precious sleep time. Betsy and her team were the salve to our situation. The team worked with our schedule, were extremely patient, and gave us the tools we needed to be successful with our doxies. They brought experience, knowledge and professionalism to every conversation and meeting. We are so grateful to Betsy and her team! Our baby is sleeping soundly again!

    Mary has been training my sister's Aussie mix (Daisey) as a service dog. I have the privilege to watch and learn as well; Mary is AMAZING at what she does. Mary is very good at explaining what she is doing/why she is doing it with the dog(s). She comes to our home to train and we have attended a couple training classes in Madison, which is so fun to watch and learn! I would 100% recommend Mary for obedience and/or service animal training. It is absolutely worth it!

    Today My dog Nova and I did our Public Access Test. Our trainer Renee Juliano a highly trained Dog Handler with Dog Training Elite. This test is to ensure that dogs that have public access are stable. The Bottom Line of this test is that Nova demonstrates she is safe to be in public and that I demonstrates I has control of Nova at all times. Our final Result was "Pass." Renee is a valuable quality skill in her trade nothing but the best.
