This is spectacular dog training! After a terrible first training experience elsewhere, we were amazed at how quickly Alex empowered us to manage our Golden puppy. We have been consistently thrilled with her progress. What is even more of a shock is how happy our puppy is to be well-trained - It has been a highly gratifying experience for all of us!

Our anxious pup is a new girl! We did a 5 week training program with Alex with our 2 year old mini goldendoodle. She already had general skills (sit, stay, etc.), but we wanted to work on her general obedience and her anxious/reactive behaviors with other people and dogs. Alex was so patient, knowledgeable, and helped us learn how to work with and train our dog. What we loved the most is that Alex would observe our dog's behavior, then would explain his thoughts and then model what we should do with our dog, and explain why it worked. He even brought his own dog along for a couple of sessions so our pup could work on friendly/'polite' ways to greet other dogs. He truly went above and beyond to make sure that we were successful! Alex also provided printed out sheets with step by step instructions for each 'skill' we practiced. This was huge, because it allowed us to learn and effectively practice each skill with our dog. Not only this, but he provided all sorts of materials- and was always bringing us new collars, treats, clickers, and more to try them out and find what was best for our girl. You could tell that he truly had our best interest at heart, and wanted our pup to be successful, comfortable, and confident. Going in, we were skeptical that you could train barking at strangers, shying away from others, and a lack of confidence out of a dog- but we have been proven wrong. She now will sit in other people's laps and is able to go on walks without being startled by other people on the sidewalk and barking at them. We have seen so much success- even people who didn't know she was getting training classes have mentioned to us how much better she seems. We will recommend Dog Training Elite and Alex to all our dog owner friends, and will continue to be grateful each time we take our girl for a walk!

I had a great experience with Alex as a trainer to my dog Dior. Dior is a little Yorkshire full of energy and Alex helped me to manage him and all the energy much better. Dior loves Alex and the relationship that they developed is amazing. Also, all the back up support from Dog Training was great - helping with the agenda and being flexible as needed. The team is extremely supportive and the training process was great - I would recommend the services to all dog parents ☺️

They were absolutely wonderful to work with! I highly recommend. We had Alex and he was kind, thoughtful, and incredibly talented at what he did. Thank you so much for your help taming our kind but rambunctious pups!

Dog Training Elite was great for our dog! Alex, our trainer, was awesome to work with and our dog loved him. Our dog now shows tremendous improvement in his behavior. 5 Stars!

Our family just completed a 6-week program with our dog, Desi, a mini Australian Shepherd. Our trainer, Alex, exceeded our expectations for helping us resolve our issues with Desi, who has a tendency with nipping/ biting, reactivity issues, and general obedience. Alex was extremely attentive to our concerns and his knowledge about dog training is beyond reproach. We cannot say enough things about our satisfaction with Alex and Dog Training Elite. He took time to answer all of our questions we bombarded him during the training days. We are shocked how well Desi is doing after 6 week program. We no longer are worried about having guests into our home because of Desi's growling and nipping. We will continue to work with Desi with the knowledge and skills we learned from Alex. We highly recommend Alex and Dog Training Elite Greater Cincinnati!

I cannot express enough gratitude for Alex and his incredible service dog training program. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Alex is not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely passionate about his work. His patience, dedication, and understanding of both dogs and their handlers are truly exceptional. Our service dog, Ryker, has undergone a remarkable transformation under Alex's guidance. The training sessions were well-structured, informative, and tailored to meet our specific needs. Alex took the time to understand our goals and challenges, and he provided us with the tools and techniques necessary to succeed. The results speak for themselves. Ryker, while already a smart doodle, is even more well-behaved, confident, and a highly reliable service dog. The positive impact on our daily lives is immeasurable. We feel more independent and secure, knowing that we have a highly trained companion by our side. I highly recommend Alex to anyone in need of service dog training. His professionalism, expertise, and compassion make him a standout in the field. Thank you, Alex, for everything you have done for us! You aren't 'just our dog trainer', but you're now a family friend in our household, including your dog Buddy! You're welcome at our home anytime just to visit or for a playdate with Ryker & Buddy. Much Love Jeff & Tammy Morgan

Alex did an amazing job training me to train our dog. I saw an immediate difference after just the first session and the week following of short (5 min) daily training sessions. She is much less anxious and has learned to follow our commands. I couldn't be happier with the results.

After finishing all of my one-on-one trainings with Trainer Alex, I feel so much more confident in my ability to work with my dog’s reactivity. Alex helped me navigate my dog’s food aggression and helped me grow in my confidence around redirecting my dog and correcting unwanted behavior. My dog and I are so much happier and healthier for it! Dog training, elite helped bring out the best in my dog and taught me how to use the appropriate tools for each of these challenges.

I couldn't have chosen a better establishment to help my dog become a service dog. The professionalism and care demonstrated throughout the training process were excellent. It is clear that the trainers are true experts when it comes to dogs, and it's evident that they genuinely love them.

Very helpful teaching me how to get my rescue to walk on a leash.

Wow. Just wow. I can not say anything but amazing things about Dog Training Elite! We were looking to get a service dog for our little girl but were running into the issue if the extreme cost of it so we decided to go a different route and get a puppy and get it trained as a service dog. We searched for the best of the best and we stumbled upon Dog Training Elite and boy were we happy we did. After sending in an interest form we were contacted within the day and set up for a FREE in home consultation! We were wowed by everything they had to say and the price was not too bad for all we got! We signed up right on the spot! From the first visit to the last visit our trainer was amazing with our non verbal 4 year old daughter and the dog and our dog learned so so fast. They are not only there for your dog but to train YOU to train your dog when they aren’t there!

We recently re-homed a 4-year-old border collie named Alfie, who, although smart and active, had issues with reactivity both in the house and on the leash. Truthfully we were scared when Alfie was acting out. Alex from Dog Training Elite was a game changer for us. His patience and expertise not only helped Alfie but trained us as well. He introduced us to an e-collar, which became an invaluable tool in managing Alfie's behavior. In just a few weeks, Alfie developed great recall and would quickly go to 'place' even during reactive episodes. Alex also taught us proper leash-walking techniques, putting an end to Alfie's leash-pulling. The e-collar helped keep Alfie focused and discouraged his reactive behavior. What stands out the most is the confidence we now have in handling Alfie, knowing he's becoming an integral part of our family. Alex was always punctual, incredibly nice, and patient, and Alfie loved his visits. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite and Alex for anyone in need of professional dog training assistance.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience just that I wish I did this sooner! I truly thought my dog was untrainable, I was scared to let him outside in our fenced in yard because he’d charge the fence and don’t get me started on walking him. We got to the point where only my husband could walk him. After training all of that has changed! I feel like I know how to control my dog in the yard and on the leash. And I can tell my dog is way more relaxed! Like he knows I’ve got it under control for the first time. We worked hard with our dog because we needed him to be successful! We have a baby and live by an elementary school and it was worth it!! The time, energy and resources are worth it for you and your dog!

Hands down the best decision I’ve made is choosing Cincinnati Dog Training Elite. The depth of knowledge I’ve learned & applied over the course of our training sessions has been incredible. I’ve seen my one year old puppy transform in so many positive ways & it goes without saying how impactful the Training Elite team has been, ensuring we are focusing on areas of concern I had at the beginning & tailoring the courses to fit my (and Boo Radley’s) needs all throughout. Huge shout out to our favorite dog trainer, Alex (who we now call Uncle Alex 😊), he’s so incredibly knowledgeable and patient with not only Boo Radley, but me as well. You’re in tremendous hands & you will see immediate results even after session #1. If your new puppy parent, or even want to brush up on overall training techniques for an existing pet, you will not regret making this decision. It’s well worth every penny, I promise!

An amazing program very helpful and patient did an amazing job working with my dog. I highly recommend there services.

Our family’s dog learned so much in our sessions. My confidence as an owner increased and it has changed the relationship I have with my dog. I highly recommend this staff. Everyone involved is very professional.

Dog whisperers! Great in house training for our two terriers.

Elite Cincinnati East was amazing! We had Alex as our trainer and he was wonderful! We bought our puppy for our daughter to eventually become a service dog for her. Alex was able to teach us the skills and work with us to train our puppy to perform the basic commands and have a strong foundation for further service dog training. Alex did more than show us how to work with our puppy; he taught us about how to read our puppy’s actions/body language and the best ways to communicate with our puppy what behavior we expect from her. Thanks to Alex we were able to figure out what was the best approach for training our puppy to get the best results. I would highly recommend Elite Cincinnati East and Alex!

My partner and I recently moved in together. My dog and her dog did not get along very well with my dog being the main aggressor. We did 5 training sessions with Alex and couldn’t be happier. We can live in peace knowing that we have the tools in hand to keep our dogs living together happy and in peace. Great program to fit a lot of different needs that your dog might have.
