Puppy Socialization Classes in Carmel / Fishers, IN

We cannot emphasize enough how much we recommend DTE. We had known for sometime that we wanted extensive training for our dog struggling with anxiety but always felt hesitant about an extended board and train. When we learned about DTE’s two week camp it was exactly what we were looking for. Two weeks of consistent training that allowed us to still pick up our pup at the end of each day. We were reassured that we made the right decision when our pup was jumping out of bed and excited to get into class every morning. One of the biggest things that stood out to us throughout this program was the level of communication and expertise shown by staff. Everyday at drop off and pick up we were welcomed to share details of our pups performance at home and (more importantly) ask questions. The training staff was always willing and happy to help. Not once did we feel rushed. In addition, we received progress updates at the end of each day and advice for training at home. My personal favorite items were the training videos we received each day. It brightened my day that anytime I started to miss my pup, I could check for a video to see how he was doing with new skills and detailed instructions for me as his handler. We are extremely proud of the progress our pup made within the two weeks and look forward to continuing his training with his in-home lessons and group classes. Thank you DTE trainers for loving, teaching, and caring for our little guy.

Our trainer earned our trust and confidence right away. He was on time for appointments, consistent in his teaching style, and very easy to learn from. We saw positive results following their instruction.

Doug, Elijah, and the DTE team exceeded all expectations. They made the training process fun and enjoyable for both me and my dog. I opted for the in-home program followed by group classes to reinforce the training. My biggest takeaway was to incorporate the teachings into a game, keeping my dog engaged and encouraged. We're excited to continue working with the team and highly recommend them for anyone seeking a professional dog training service.

After researching many training options for our 5-month-old miniature schnauzer, we contacted Dog Training Elite Carmel/Fishers. They conducted a free in-home assessment to understand our goals for our puppy. We made the right choice! Our puppy enjoyed the 2-week training camp, and we will continue to take group classes and pursue their therapy dog training for her. Each trainer was loving and knowledgeable! I felt very supported by all of the staff. They give you the tools and resources to continue working on behavior at home. Our puppy, Charli, was excited to go to camp every single day!

Great experience for both our pups. Wonderful staff. Caring and patient. True improvement in our dogs behavior. Highly recommend.

Everyone who works at DTE is of the utmost professionalism and courteousness. The level of knowledge is amazing and I could not ask for a better team to work not only training the dogs, but the owners as well. The compassion and generosity experienced was so wonderful. I will be recommending DTE to everyone!

Doug and his team are fantastic. They care a lot about the welfare of your dog, but also your long term relationship with your dog. It shows through their training.

The training we have received has been great! The money spent has been worth every bit of training. Elijah and Josh have been helpful when we get stuck! I would use them again! The staff is great and response time is great!

I've been to 6 dog training facilities and Elite is the best hands down. They go way beyond basic training. I have became so close to my companion now that he listens to me.

Absolutely AMAZING. The entire staff is very well versed in all aspects of training your furry family member. Currently, Liberty and I are working towards certifying as a service dog. The techniques taught, when used, WORK!!! Having a well disciplined furry family member reduces stress, gives companionship and brings extreme joy to each day of your life. UPDATE: Liberty is fully certified! Having the ability to take her everywhere has truly improved the quality of life!!! I could not have done it without the staff and guidance! Thank you!

Well worth every penny. It's the training, the communications, the daily videos, the field trips, the socialization, the aftercare, the numerous lifetime training, and the meet-ups. Well worth the happy relationship you have with your pet and the community.

Absolutely thrilled with Dog Training Elite! Our young Chocolate Lab just completed the two-week camp, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in the best care. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and truly passionate about what they do. Georgie is much more obedient. We saw significant improvements in her socialization skills and basic commands, and the personalized attention she received made all the difference. The training techniques are easy to follow and effective, making learning a fun experience for her. We now feel confident in our ability to continue her training at home, thanks to the tools and strategies provided by the team. If you're looking for a comprehensive, caring, and effective training program, I highly recommend Dog Training Elite. Georgie is a great puppy, and we owe it all to their amazing camp! Thank you for everything!

Excellent experience I adopted a shelter dog With in 3 days I was walking without being dragged He listens to me The whole group of trainers were receptive to questions and individual concerns I highly recommend following up by attending weekly group classes

I am BLOWN away by DTE’s staff, compassion, and overall attitude towards dogs and their families. These people want what’s best and PRACTICAL for your dog. I chose boot camp and am thrilled I did. My pup, Gordo, has responded so well to training it’s remarkable. With boot camp he gets UNLIMITED group classes throughout his lifetime. There’s really only one choice for dog training in Indy, and Dog Training Elite is it.

I would recommend DTE to anyone and everyone! They have done such an amazing job with Moxie and she loves all the trainers here so much! We both look forward to group classes and continuing to learn. She is almost ready to be a service dog! I was very weary of the training collar at first, but it is nothing like a shock collar and works wonders! If you are in need of any kind of training - GO SEE DTE! They will change your life!

Dog Training Elite has helped with every part of dog life: finding the right breed for service work, helping me select a reputable breeder, and even selecting the puppy. And the dedication to training and consultation is fantastic! I can’t say enough about the care and expertise from the whole staff. They really care about the dogs and about training we humans as well. My dog is only 7 months old and our bond is wonderful because of DTE guidance. Everyone is impressed at how well she behaves at such a young age, and how happy she is too! Great team. Thank you DTE

We have had the best experience with and seen the biggest improvements in our dog’s behavior and obedience than in the past with multiple trainers. From one-on-one sessions to group training, Elijah & Josh have welcomed all questions. From our first meeting with Doug, I have been impressed with this company’s professionalism. They have gone out of their way to ensure we have everything we need to be successful in training our pup, Sophie. Highly recommend Dog Training Elite!

My dog went through DTE’s 2 week day camp program and came out a much more confident and well mannered dog. The main reason for sending him to camp was to help with his dog reactivity and confidence. The weekly group lessons have been a huge part of his continued success. The entire staff at DTE is extremely knowledgeable and truly cares about helping you to reach your training goals.

We had a great experience with DTE and the trainers! Josh and Elijah are both incredible! The level of knowledge and care they bring to each training session made it easy and less daunting of a task to train our older rescue. Couldn’t be happier with the results and love the value add of group classes that we will continue to go to every chance we get. Our pup has come so far because of DTE!

INCREDIBLE experience! By the end of day 3 in their facility camp, Theo is following commands even when he is taking a break from his collar. They share videos of the commands they teach on a daily basis and provide daily progress notes. All of the trainers are so patient and passionate about what they do and take the time to explain and answer all questions. Theo absolutely loves going back every morning. Completely blown away and we still have 1.5 weeks of training left.
