The best time to start training your Goldendoodle is from day one! If you bring your new four-legged family member home as a puppy, we recommend you start Chicago goldendoodle puppy training as soon as possible. Puppies are eager to learn and please, so starting commands from a young age will build a firm foundation for more training as they grow.

We offer training programs for puppies as young as eight weeks. But don't worry if you start training with your Goldendoodle later in life. Our tried–and–true Dog Training Elite training programs work for dogs of any age.

    Jess has done an AMAZING job with me and my toy poodle puppy. She is helping me train her to be a therapy dog that can work with students at the school I work at. Jess is patient, always on time, and very understanding. I am glad I found Dog Training Elite Chicago.

    We had a great experience with DTE. Jess is an extraordinary trainer and was instrumental in helping my dog become a registered service animal. One of our biggest goals was ensuring my dog could safely and comfortably travel by air, and thanks to Jess's expertise, she can now fly at my feet and handle busy environments with confidence. Jess was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the process. Working with her and DTE helped my dog and I by building trust, confidence, and consistency. I'm so grateful for everything she helped us achieve. We will certainly be back. Highly recommend!

    You will not regret using Dog Training Elite Chicago! My dog was so fearful of everything and reactive to everyone. Now we can exist in society with ease. Jess is amazing, she is so helpful and can always adapt training to whatever situation I throw at her. I have tried so many types of trainings and trainers and I did not see a real difference until working with Jess and Rich. So thankful for working with them, I am a forever customer!

    Jess Arundale of Dog Training Elite was very helpful, patient, and most of all was a great listener. I have two very large unsocialized German Shepherds that have to be trained and Jess was nothing if not attentive. She asked many questions about the dogs background and was very clear about a path forward. Anyone who works with Jess will be well taken care of.

    100% recommend working with them! I worked with Jess to train my mini poodle. He wasn’t bad to begin with, but would pull on the leash when we would walk and had me completely trained. Now he’s doing so much better and even walked in his first fashion show! I get compliments on how well behaved he is all the time. Definitely will be working with them to train him to become a therapy dog.

    She’s great and very patient with the dogs! Knows very well on how to deal with reactive behaviors!

    Jess has been an absolute life saver as we’ve navigated puppyhood. We’ve raised a pup before, but the energy our new pup brought wasn’t something we were adequately prepared for. Jess is so patient and encouraging, boosting us up whenever we got discouraged or frustrated with our progress. I can’t imagine how the last seven months would’ve gone without Jess and I can’t recommend her and Dog Training Elite of Chicago more! It was worth every penny!

    It's only the first day and Im learning a lot! I will try my hardest to pay more attention to Ghost and to correct him before he gets the option to react.

    Jess, the trainer assigned to me is superb both in knowledge and manners. She has been listening carefully to the issues I wanted to solve. After only one week of work I can see a great improvement. I recommend her to anybody interested in training. Nero (my dog - a big fluffy German Shepard) loves her… I can tell he is eager to start classes! Thank you Jess for your knowledge and dedication ! Simona

    Jess is so helpful and wonderful to work with. She is incredibly knowledgeable and puts my wife and I at ease every time we have a session. Highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for guidance and confidence that you are raising your puppy correctly.

    Cannot say enough good things about Jess A. and the crew @ Dog Training Elite Chicago. From just the first phone that led to a free consultation to the very last 1:1 session, Dog Training Elite Chicago were extremely professional, friendly, and helpful. I have a german shep/huskie mix who can be quite a handful on our walks with leash aggression, and now I feel very much in control and confident with managing his behaviors. Thanks again DTEC!

    Jess is amazing!! We recently moved to Chicago from Orlando, Florida with my service animal for my residency. In Orlando, we also used Dog Training Elite for service dog training. My dog had challenges being in a new city with very different experiences and was unable to perform her tasks properly. DTE Chicago was amazing and honored our package we had in Orlando. Jess was able to walk us through some training and advice that helped my dog become much more comfortable with Chicago so she can perform her tasks correctly. We are very appreciative of Jess!

Begin with Simple Commands

Read More
Read Less

The best way to start training—whether as a puppy or a grown dog—is with simple commands. Starting with simple and easy–to–understand commands will build confidence and trust with your dog. This is essential with a sensitive dog like a goldendoodle. We suggest starting with commands like “sit,” “heel,” “down,” and “come” Once you and your pup have these commands down, it will be easier for both of you to move on to more complex and fun commands.

Work on Eliminating Unwanted Behaviors

Read More

Although Goldendoodles have many desirable traits, a few undesirable behaviors are associated with them. The behaviors that we often see are trouble with house training, jumping, and barking. Once you have developed a good training foundation with simple commands, you can start working on eliminating unwanted behaviors.

The trainers at Dog Training Elite in Chicago can work with you and your Goldendoodle to solve specific behavioral problems. Using our balanced training theory, we can eliminate unwanted behavior.

More Training Tips!

Goldendoodle Breed Training

Here are some additional tips you can follow when training you goldendoodle puppy:

Goldendoodles are very interactive and energetic animals, so socializing them with other dogs is essential to ensuring they are well behaved. Starting socialization at a young age is beneficial, but it can be accomplished at any age. Dog Training Elite offers group obedience classes, which are a great way to continue Goldendoodle dog training while socializing your dog in a safe environment.
Most goldendoodles are relatively easy to train, but remaining consistent is essential. When training any dog, you must show your dog that you expect a specific behavior to happen every time. In return, show your dog that you will be consistent with teaching and responding to incorrect behaviors. Consistency during your goldendoodle dog training will help your pup learn correct behavior quickly.

One of the most important things to remember when training your Goldendoodle is to be patient. Training a puppy or teaching an older dog new commands can be challenging and take some time. Have patience with your dog and yourself, and you will be successful!
