We could not be happier that we chose Dog Training Elite Clarksville for Apollo’s obedience training! From the beginning, the entire experience has been wonderful. The program was reasonably priced, and I especially appreciated the financial flexibility. After putting down our deposit, we were able to make weekly payments rather than having to pay the entire balance at once. That accommodation made investing in Apollo’s training much easier for our family. Austin has been AMAZING. He is knowledgeable, patient, kind, and always takes the time to explain what he is teaching Apollo—and just as importantly, what we need to do at home to reinforce it. He always has a smile on his face, and you can genuinely see how much he enjoys working with the dogs. Apollo is comfortable with him, and as a dog mom, that means so much to me. The difference we are seeing in Apollo is incredible. On leash, he is learning to heel, automatically sits when I stop, and is paying much more attention to me instead of everything happening around him. We are still working together to fine-tune and reinforce everything he has learned, but Austin has given us the knowledge, tools, and guidance to continue doing that successfully. This training is especially important to us because our hope is for Apollo to eventually become my service dog. Before we can even pursue that next step, he needed a solid obedience foundation and will have to be evaluated to determine whether he is a good candidate for service work. With Austin’s training and guidance, I truly feel that Apollo is well on his way, and I couldn't be happier with his progress. And can we talk about the appointment reminders?! 😂👏 AMAZING! With everything life throws at us, having those reminders is such a small detail that makes a HUGE difference. The communication and organization from DTE have been fantastic. THANK YOU, AUSTIN, for everything you have taught Apollo and for teaching us how to continue working with him. And thank you, Dog Training Elite Clarksville, for having such a wonderful trainer on your team. Choosing DTE was absolutely the right decision for our family, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional, knowledgeable, caring dog training. Apollo isn't finished learning yet—but seeing how far he has already come makes me so excited to see where he goes from here. 🐾💙
