    Debbie was very patient (with us and our baby girl!), explained everything very well, modeled all of the commands and what to do before having us try, gave great constructive criticism to help us improve, and gave us great reminders as we practiced.

    Working with Dog Training Elite has been an absolute pleasure. After completing our in-home sessions, we’ve seen an amazing improvement in our dog Sassy’s behavior. She is now much better behaved. Justin and Debbie were professional, knowledgeable and caring. Debbie has been knowledgeable, patient, compassionate and dedicated to Sassy’s success. Sassy absolutely loves her. We look forward to continued progress in the group sessions. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite Midlands. Five stars plus!!

    Very pleased with our training. Debbie was patient and positive dealing with our dog Teddy. He responded very well to her and was always glad to see her. Great experience! Looking forward to starting group classes as we finished private lessons today.

    Loghin is absolutely awesome. He introduced us to the program and gave our lab his first lesson today. He’s thorough, patient, and friendly. Explains things well and doesn’t make you feel rushed. He won’t leave until you are comfortable with the lesson being taught. So glad we are a part of his clients.👍

    Justin was exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. My Bentley loved him! He took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I had all the information I needed to make an informed decision. I look forward to working with Justin and the rest of the team, and I'm excited to see the final outcome! I highly recommend them! Mrs. Debbie has also been absolutely wonderful with Bentley! She’s knowledgeable, patient, compassionate, and truly dedicated to helping him succeed. What I appreciate most is that she’s not only there for Bentley, but for me as well. The entire staff has been incredibly supportive, helpful, and phenomenal throughout this journey. We’re so grateful for all they do! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Justin & team have been amazing to work with!! We have one reactive GSD mix and one APBT that is just an over excited goofball, and Dog Training Elite is transforming them into well-behaved, obedient companions! Can't recommend them enough!

    Justin is wonderful and knowledgeable to his craft and gave us an amazing presentation and experience. Louie was just so adorable and obedient.

    They were so helpful! Even though I have to wait to use their services because we are about to move, they have trainers in my area that im moving to in NC! And he even gave me some free great advice to at least help until we can get a trainer in. My dog is being very aggressive near a gate, and they are the only place I found that was willing to help with a potentially aggressive dog. 10/10 would recommend!

    Debbie does a great job with our boys. She has patience and the steady hand that makes the boys understand what to do. She works well with us and I think we are all learning from her. Thanks Ms Debbie.

    As always Ms Debbie did a great job. The boys know she means business and she don't like no monkey stuff. She is firm and they respond well. I like that she is firm but also knows their personality.

    We had a really great experience with Debbie. She was professional, knowledgeable, polite, and very patient with our nervous puppy. We’re really looking forward to continuing to work with her.
