    It was great meeting Jeff during our free in-home evaluation. He arrived right on time and immediately made both us and our dog feel comfortable during the meet and greet. We really appreciated his nonjudgmental approach, especially as we work through a few challenges with our 10 year old dog, who isn’t always the most obedient. Jeff’s calm and understanding demeanor made a big impression on us.

    Move over Cesar Millan—Utah has its own Dog Whisperer, and his name is Jeff Slack! Jeff, Meggie, and the entire team at Dog Training Elite are absolute rockstars. From day one, they were hands-on, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Every trainer we worked with was excellent and truly passionate about helping both dogs and their humans succeed. They didn’t just train our dog—they gave us the tools to help her grow into a happy, confident, and well-behaved member of our family. Huge thank you to everyone at DTE!

    My dog Kilo just completed the first step of a lifelong journey with Dog Training Elite (DTE). He had the opportunity to be worked with at the Sandy facility with his amazing trainer McCall and her team. Upon pick-up, the trainers work with you as the dog parent to learn the skills and techniques to practice on our own. Training with DTE is truly the last one you will ever need as a dog parent. The habits/changes my dog has learned from the first day to the immense growth he has demonstrated two full weeks later has me MIND BLOWN. In fact, McCall and her team has treated my Kilo like their own pet and this is a big deal for me coming from Hawaii where Ohana is so important. 10/10 recommend to anyone needing any dog training services and it is worth the expense for the time, consistency, dedication, love, and quality they put into each day of training. I am excited for the next step of having some 1:1 training sessions and joining group training sessions. Im grateful that my dog’s journey wont end here and we will have lifetime support and unlimited group class experiences that help us as dog parents be more confident in working with our own dogs, and maintaining our dog’s learning outside of the facility. Look at my happy dog and make sure you all follow his Instagram acct to follow his journey with DTE and learn more about his experience: @Kilothepitt_

At Dog Training Elite Salt Lake City, we believe in-home dog training is the most effective way to address your dog’s needs. Unlike traditional obedience schools, which often provide a one-size-fits-all approach, in-home training allows our team to observe and address your dog’s behavioral issues within the environment they naturally occur.

For instance, if your dog has a habit of barking at the mailman or chasing the neighbor’s cat, our trainers can work directly with your dog in those exact situations. This personalized approach ensures we target the root of the behavior, making it easier for your dog to understand and follow commands.

In-home training minimizes distractions and allows your dog to focus better on learning. By starting in the home and gradually introducing group lessons, our program helps your dog retain commands and respond accordingly to their surroundings.

Benefits of In-Home Training Techniques

Read More
Read Less
  • Develop a Strong Bond
  • Dogs thrive in training sessions when they are with their loved ones. Learning commands is a way for your dog to connect with you, and your praise and treats make the experience enjoyable and strengthen your bond.

    Sending your dog to obedience school separates you from the training process, missing out on this important connection. At Dog Training Elite, we involve you and your family in every in-home training session. Our trainers focus on teaching you how to train your dog and enhance your bonding experience.

  • Quickly Teach Obedience
  • Obedience commands are crucial for any comprehensive dog training program. They ensure your dog’s safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. At the core of successful training, these commands must be mastered before progressing.

    Our in-home training program emphasizes foundational obedience, teaching essential commands like sit, down, come, and drop it. Once these basics are solidified, our trainers will guide you and your dog through more advanced skills.

  • Correct Problem Behaviors
  • If your dog jumps on guests, charges the door when the bell rings, or begs at the table, these issues can be effectively corrected with the right training techniques.

    Group classes or basic training programs often overlook these specific problem behaviors, which usually occur in your dog's familiar home environment. Bringing a trusted trainer into your home ensures these behaviors are addressed in the context where they happen, leading to more effective solutions.
