    Had a great experience with Dog Training Elite. McCall was the main trainer for Daisy and the transformation we saw in just a couple weeks was incredible. She made sure to address all the concerns I had with Daisy. All the trainers that we worked with were great and super friendly. I would absolutely recommend people here. Update 9/16/25 They are still the best, was having issues with leash pulling while on hikes, Jeff met me on a hiking trail and really helped me get that under control. The group classes have also been invaluable and a great time!

    Jeff and his young dog came by the house to introduce us to some of the training benefits of his program. Our dog really to a liking to both of them. And they showed us the benefits of training for both us and our Delilah. We know it’s a real commitment to enter their program but I can see great benefits down the road.

    We had the absolute best experience with Dog Training Elite! From the very first session, the trainers were professional, patient, and truly invested in helping our dog Sherlock succeed. Sherlock can be a handful, but they worked with him in such a positive and encouraging way that we quickly saw progress. Their training methods are clear, effective, and tailored to both the dog and the owner, which made it easy for us to continue practicing at home. What impressed me most was how much they genuinely cared about Sherlock’s success. They didn’t just train him—they also gave us the tools and confidence to keep reinforcing his good behavior long after the sessions ended. I can’t recommend Dog Training Elite enough. If you’re looking for trainers who are knowledgeable, kind, and dedicated to helping your dog thrive, this is the team you want! Sherlock is happier, more confident, and so much better behaved thanks to them.
