    We were having quite a tough time managing our girl Wednesday before we found dog training elite. She was very reactive on leash, had a habit of jumping fences and we had to make major adjustments to the way we lived our lives just to keep her and others safe. We’re only halfway through the program and the difference is already night and day. Walks are actually enjoyable now, her escape artist tendencies have stopped, and we have real peace of mind when we take her anywhere with us. It sounds dramatic but it genuinely has been life-changing. Yes, the price can be daunting at first, but it has been well worth it. Jeff and Meggie are wonderful people who are damn good at their jobs! Cannot recommend them enough!

    Jeff and Meggie have been so wonderful with my poodle Graham! He is on his 4th out of 5 one-on-one lessons and is making incredible progress. From a dog that was biting people and dogs, he is a completely new guy. Thank you to this wonderful place!!!

    We had our first session with Meg today and O could not have asked for a better experience. From the minute she walked in, you could tell she really understands dogs. My puppy warmed up to her very quickly and felt calm and safe with her almost immediately, which is not always easy. I lobed how balanced Meg was. She wasconfident and firm when needed, but still so kind and patient. Nothing felt forced or harsh. She explained things in a way that actually made sense and gave me so much hope that we’re on the right track. I’m really grateful we found her and we’ll definitely be continuing sessions with her moving forward. You can tell she genuinely cares about us and our puppy 🐶

    We’re new to in-home dog training and after meeting with Meggie, we’re instantly at ease with both the process and the projected outcome. Her confidence in her knowledge and abilities is evident; however, she tempered that with patience and understanding for our unique concerns and goals for our dog. She’s tremendously personable and warm with both humans and dogs alike. We’re excited to work with her long term and feel confident she’s the solution we’ve been looking for!

    It was a pleasure to meet Meggie she was able to answer all my questions, gave a very persuasive demonstration and handled my dog very reassuringly and he’s a bit of a handful.

    Maggie was great. She showed me how to use the collar for Violet's behavior problems. Also helped me develop a plan for her potty training.

    We did the training camp and are now starting the group lessons. The arrangements are not cheap, but the instructors are very helpful and always willing to listen. McCall helped us with additional requests for other commands, especially drop it. We're comfortable with the investment because for the price, we're buying a lifetime of support. ADDENDUM: Meggie came to our house today and did our first in house visit today. She was fantastic - very calm, unrestrained, and our dog took to her quickly. We really alleviated the home visit and will need to work on the homework to ensure things stick.

Our Training Method

Read More
Read Less

When it comes to training, the approach matters. At Dog Training Elite Salt Lake City, we rely on a balanced combination of positive reinforcement and gentle electronic collar techniques to provide the best results for you and your dog.

  • Positive Reinforcement: Dogs are eager to please and we take advantage of this in our training method. Unlike other trainers that use harsh punishment to reinforce behavior, we only use positive tactics. By showing dogs what we want them to do with positive reinforcement, we receive a better response. This is the preferred method for dog lovers! We certainly do not want to harm dogs, and we know most dog owners agree with us.
  • Electronic Collar: Our trainers use an electronic collar to support their positive reinforcement training methods. This is not a shock collar. The electronic collar simply gets your dog's attention and ensures superior training results when paired with a command.
  • Stronger Bonds: To develop stronger bonds between dog and family, we ask dog owners and other family members to take part in training sessions. Our goal is to help you train your new dog as a valuable member of your family with love and trust.
