    We’re training our black lab puppy with Dog Training Elite and they are wonderful. Their in-home training, especially with Meggie, has been so helpful. Having that 1:1 time with a trainer and our dog is invaluable. I can’t recommend them enough!

    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_

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.
