Excessive Barking Training

My dog and I LOVED our experience at dog trailing elite. Not only does my dog get excited for the training sessions but it has really made her more calm and obedient. I wish I did this sooner. Highly recommend them! The trainers are so nice and reply to my messages so quickly. I'm so pleased with their services!

We’ve had such a great experience with DTE! My dog Hera is a Pom and she has learned SO much since we started training. She used to be very reactive whenever we came across other dogs in our neighborhood, which made our walks pretty stressful at times. With the at-home training, the trainers gave me the right tools and commands to understand how to handle those situations and redirect her attention. The difference has honestly been huge. Hera is so much calmer and easier to redirect around other dogs now, and our walks have become way more enjoyable for both of us. She’s also much more attentive to me, and her recall has improved tremendously! I feel like I understand her better and know how to communicate with her instead of just getting frustrated when she reacts. We’re still always working on things, of course, but seeing how far she’s come makes me so proud of her. Definitely recommend DTE and the girls! 🐾❤️

I would not hesitate to recommend Dog Training Elite for both their training and daycare services. Training techniques are personalized to your dogs needs/personality. Tina has been effective with our somewhat stubborn Boston Terrier. Well worth the money.

We adopted a black mouth cur hound about a year ago when he was not quite 2 years of age and had been in a foster home. After having him in our home for a few weeks, although he was a great fit with our kids there wasn't a ton of consistency in his past training. He has a strong prey drive and can be reactive at the fence. He is very loyal to his people but has days he can be selective. About 6-8 weeks after adopting him, we were able to get started with DTE. I have never been a huge fan of e-collars (also didn't understand how to use them) and though we've had dogs all our lives, never had such a strong pup. He pulled both of my older sons down to the ground on a leash when walking to chase animals. The team at DTE was very clear about the 2 week training program and expectations (from both dog and owner). We kept up with homework and we continue to take him to occasional day trains and group classes. My older kids can walk him alone now, he has learned recall even with distractions , and even my 4 year old can handle him on a leash with supervision and give him certain commands with ease. We were skeptical of the cost, but it has been the best training to build both skills for our dog and confidence for our family in handling him. We are always getting compliments on how well he listens and how calm he is out in public. We also know how to read him and give him a break when needed. Some of this is personality, but we built a trust between us and I'm glad we did it early on in his start with our family.

I had an amazing experience with my dog doing service dog training here. They come to you for training and every session I am shocked how quickly my dog, Puzzle, was listening to commands. My dog went from pulling on a leash on every walk to walking right beside me in 1 session.

Consultation appointment went really well with Aiden. He explained things throughly.

When I signed up for classes I wasn’t sure if anything would work or help me and my dog. She was impossible to walk on a leash comfortably or to have a leisurely walk. Very reactive when a person or dog would walk by. She was way too crazy. Hard to just walk by anyone without wanting to jump up and pull toward them. Just overly excited. But it really has made a HUGE difference. It’s actually amazing to me the difference, even in the first 2 days. From being dragged into the building by my dog the first day to an easy walk to the building the next. We are both much happier now. It’s been a great experience.

We had a great experience with Nathan! He did an awesome job training our puppy and us! Our puppy now has manners when guests visit and stays with us on walks. We appreciate all that you did!

I highly recommend Dog Training Elite (DTE). Truman is my 25 pound Mini Bull Terrier that was extremely reactive to other dogs on the other side of fences or on a leash with their owners. Walks would get stressful and needed a lot of active avoidance of situations where another dog could get within 10-12 feet of Truman. Not a good life for a dog or fun for me. After two weeks of focused doggy "boot-camp" and homework, Truman's behavior was an order of magnitude better. His first hour long outdoor group class after "graduating" involved about twenty other dogs and their owners. Truman kept his cool (ie., making good doggy decisions), with Truman and numerous other dogs walking or weaving by. That would have been literally impossible with even one dog three weeks earlier. He is much, much better with the basics like recall, sit, down, heel, door manners, etc.. Truman and I still have a lot of work to do to get all his much better behaviors solid, but I think DTE has given us the tools we need to be successful at getting Truman to his best life as a well behaved little dog in the outside world.

First meet was great. My pup loved meeting the “dog whisperer”. I look forward to learning from him!

John did an amazing job with our pup. Our pup started showing reactive tendencies and would ignore any recalls. He would make people feel uncomfortable by his bark and appearance. After even a few sessions of just obedience trainings , our pup was starting to calm down. John really took his time and explained everything for us and was available whenever we had questions. Our pup is doing way better and is reactivity is way down. We will continue to go over the basics with him. Thank you to John and Elite Dog training for your time and guidance.

Aiden was able to come out and explain the dog training program. He entered every question that I have and brought his friend along to demonstrate some of the commands and things that we would be learning during training.. it was able to provide me with a reasonable quote and expectations for next steps. I'm looking forward to working with him.

Maggie is amazing, she goes detailed on how to properly train our dog. Before training she take time to observe and understand how our pup is. Highly recommend 👌

Our trainer Kim is fantastic! We have done four of our 5 in-home classes and one group class. Group class was amazing. Would recommend Dog Training Elite Kansas City to anyone with a dog.

good experience

JB brings a wealth of expertise and experience to his training. As an educator of both Zsa Zsa and myself, he adapts to our needs, explains tasks clearly, and corrects promptly. Working with JB is a pleasure and the results are gratifying.

This was our goal, to create a bonding with us ‼️

Chloe is great. You can tell that she enjoys her work, takes it seriously and is very good at it. I trust Chloe with my girl.

Chloe is the best with both of our pups. She helped tremendously when we were at our wits end.

The trainers are extremely professional and knowledgeable. It is a joy to see how far in just a few sessions our Lab has progressed.
