Destructive Chewing and Digging Training

Destructive chewing and digging can cause serious damage to your home and yard. At Dog Training Elite, we tackle these behaviors by identifying their root causes, such as boredom, anxiety, or lack of boundaries. Our goal is to provide lasting solutions that prevent further damage and create a more peaceful environment for you and your dog.

Our destructive chewing and digging training focuses on structured activities and consistent discipline to redirect your dog’s energy. We implement strategies like interactive toys and planned play sessions to keep your dog engaged, reducing the temptation to chew or dig. Clear boundaries and regular routines will help your dog understand acceptable behaviors.

We also consider environmental factors that may contribute to these destructive habits. Dogs often act out when they lack a designated space or feel stressed. By helping you establish a structured environment—whether through crate training or creating specific play areas—we reduce the triggers for chewing and digging.

If you're ready to stop the damage and regain control, contact us today to create a customized plan.

    We have had Rhett and Kaitlyn training our 2 year old Boston for about 6 weeks now and they have really done great with what we handed to them - a psycho. They are very patient, kind and knowledgeable. We have definitely noticed a change in our boy that would not have been possible without them.

    Nick is fantastic! Highly recommend for anyone with dogs in Las Vegas. We can't say enough good things about Nick and Dog Training Elite. From our very first consultation, he took the time to get to know our pups and didn't hesitate to start working with them right away. He's incredibly patient and has a natural way with dogs, and it shows in how quickly they've responded to him. We have two dogs, and Nick works with both of them at the same time, which has made a huge difference for our household. He's also been wonderfully accommodating with our busy work schedules, always finding a way to make it work. Along the way, he regularly checks in and reassures us about our dogs' progress, so we always know where we stand and what to practice. If you're looking for a trainer who genuinely cares about your dogs and your family, Nick is the one. Thank you for everything!

    I had the best time training with Kyle and his dog Kheli. When I had questions he was very friendly and informative. You can truly tell when someone enjoys what they do and helping people better understand thier doggy companions. Would recommend to all looking for the most professional and knowledgeable people to train your dog.

    Nathan was a great trainer! Kovu was very reactive and unable to go on walks, did not listen well and could not be around other dogs. After our first session with Nathan, Kovu had already made great progress. By the last session Kovu was able to be on a walk outside with people & dogs walking by. He doesn’t try to run out our front door anymore and overall seems less anxious! Thank you so much! Highly recommend.

    We had Kyle working with us, and he was an excellent instructor. My dog and I learned how to communicate with each other and I learned how to be patient and consistent in teaching her what I wanted her to do. Good steady progress. Now I feel I have the tools to take it to the next level. Thanks!

    Dog Training Elite of Southern CT was excellent! After thorough research near Westport, CT, we picked DTE and we are very happy with our decision. All of our expectations were exceeded. Howie was is now fully trained as a Service Dog. All sessions were on-time with follow-up notes texted to me. Howie really enjoyed the sessions too! It was a smooth process for all.

    Rhett and Kaitlyn did a tremendous job ŵorking with our rescue pup Juno. Initially my goal was for Juno to learn basic commands to help improve her behavior and stop her from leaving our yard. I quickly learned from Rhett and Kaitlyn that by teaching her expectations and how to follow commands, we could help Juno become a more confident and secure dog. As she matured through training her behavior improved so much. There's no way we could have made this progress without Rhett and Kaitlyn. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs help training their animal!

    I have had the best experience working with Dog Training Elite! I had the chance to work with trainer Reina and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! From the very beginning, she was patient, knowledgeable, and truly took the time to understand my dog Honey and her individual needs. She made training feel positive and manageable while giving me the tools and confidence to continue working with her at home. I have seen such a huge improvement in Honey’s behavior, listening, and overall confidence. What I appreciate most is that the training isn’t just about teaching commands—it’s about helping me better understand Honey and build a stronger relationship with her. Honey genuinely enjoys training, and I have seen changes that I honestly didn’t know were possible. I am so grateful for the guidance, support, and dedication throughout the process. I would highly recommend Reina to anyone looking for a trainer who truly cares about both the dog and the family! 🐾💖

    Tina was fantastic to work with! Our two huskies have drastically improved and are much more manageable all around, especially on walks. Prior to training, we had almost given up on taking them for walks due to pulling and their reaction to other dogs. Tina worked with us and gave us the tools to be in control so walks aren't so stressful!
