We're just getting started with DTE Broward but are so very happy with how the group classes are efficient, organized, well-run, and so very informational. The instructors are also the perfect mix of firm and patient. We've attended both the Thursday evening and Saturday morning group classes and you can see the difference in my 5-mo old dog immediately -- and we had the best time.

Marie and her team guided me and my bernedoodle Boba through canine good citizen to service dog certification. They have a true love for and dedication to dogs, and were always prompt, communicative, and showed genuine care in training Boba.

As the owner of a Belgian Malinois, I feel truly fortunate to be part of this group. The trainers have equipped me with valuable skills that make working with my dog both fun and rewarding. Beyond techniques, they’ve also given me the confidence to keep growing as a handler and inspired me to become better — for my dog and for myself

I highly recommend him.

Marie and her staff are amazing. She was able to take our Vizsla through a journey that started with a shy dog full of anxiety to a bold mature girl brimming with confidence and now able to go to the busiest of places and stay focused on her work. Marie makes an incredible effort to personalize the education specifically for the dog that needs training and has incredible patience with both the owner and puppy. Through the process I became much closer to Rosie and could not be any more proud of what she has become. I cannot say enough about Marie. She is dedicated to the work needed for the results desired.

I love my experience with them! They trained my dog very well! I highly recommend them. They truly care about their clients

We started our service dog training with Dog Training Elite a year ago and let me tell you, we have a 1 year old dog that is highly obedient, loving, would never bite a soul and is task trained for my daughter. Not just that, included in their plans you get a weekly group session once your dog graduates from minor obedience training. My daughter enjoys the Saturday classes, seeing all the other dogs and being able to socialize with others which has been a challenge for her in her elementary years. If i get another dog i would definitely utilize their services.

I highly recommend getting your dog trained by Marie and her team. Mila had so many bad habits like digging big holes in the back yard and not listening to basic commands. Marie lovingly put a stop to all of this and now I get continuous complements about how well mannered my dog is. I can take my dog so many places with confidence now as she is so calm and well behaved. I am so grateful I chose Dog Training Elite to work with Mila. Marie is a true dog lover and dog expert which is evident from the first moment you meet her.

Ann Marie- has been an excellent trainer! She has provided great structure and education & lots of patience :) My dog has significantly improved in just a few weeks (and thats only the beginning). Totally recommend, especially if you're trying to get your animal trained as a Service Dog!

Marie and Matt have been absolutely amazing! Their depth of knowledge is truly impressive, and they’ve guided us with clear, effective strategies every step of the way. They are incredibly trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely care about our dog’s progress. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dedicated and skilled trainers. They definitely treat Mateo like family ❤️

Dog Training Elite Broward is absolutely fantastic! Marie and Gus were professional, on time, and so friendly—they truly loved my dog and made the whole experience enjoyable. Working with them was such a pleasure. The skills my dog has learned on his journey to becoming a therapy dog are incredible and so helpful. The joy he now brings to others is all thanks to their expertise and dedication. Highly recommend!

We adopted our fur baby, Charlie, back in March when he was just 2 months old. Wanting to start his training early, we reached out to Dog Training Elite Broward. From the beginning, the experience was outstanding, Gus came to our home to meet Charlie, and his knowledge and genuine love for dogs immediately gave us the confidence to sign up for the puppy program. Charlie’s first trainer, Nubia, was an absolute sweetheart. She guided us through the challenging early stages of potty training and teething with patience and care. Then we signed up Charlie for the progressed program, we began working with Matt, such a gentle soul with incredible patience and a clear passion for dogs. His calm demeanor and consistency truly helped us and Charlie build on those foundational skills. Both Nubia and Matt were flexible with their scheduling and always came to our home, which made the process so convenient for our busy lives. Now, as we approach the final stage we started the group classes, Gus is once again guiding us, bringing great energy, fun, and structure to each session. The classes are both challenging and enjoyable for Charlie, and we can truly see the results of all the hard work. We can’t recommend Dog Training Elite Broward enough! Charlie is still a work in progress, like any puppy, but visitors are always impressed by how well-behaved he is. Our investment in his training is definitely paying off, and we’re so grateful to be on the right path with such a fantastic team

Dog Training Elite has been wonderful. We have very high standards for our adopted teenage soon-to-be service dog and her training has not disappointed. Gus did our assessment promptly, walked me through all the steps and different course options and promptly answered all my questions. He also paired me with Matt based on my and my dog’s specific needs. We now see Gus weekly at group class and he leads those in social settings. He has a way of exhausting the most active puppy while calmly walking in very busy settings. We love his classes at downtown Ft Lauderdale. Matt found a slightly anxious but sweet dog that had a lot of energy and enthusiasm to make friends which could be a bit intimidating to strangers. He shaped her to be a perfectly obedient dog who looks for my approval before approaching a stranger and asks for pets by politely sitting at their feet. Kygs is now well received at casinos, malls, grocery stores, and more. Marie is an excellent leader. She runs the weekend group classes and makes sure no dog is out of line. We have very high standards for our dog behavior and Marie finds a way to inspire to be even better. She evaluates every dog for their public access tests and gives us, the owners, invaluable feedback about our dog’s strengths and weaknesses as well as general things to look out for in dog behavior, body language and psyche. With Dog Training Elite Broward, you can rest assured that they meet all the requirements for certifications as they belong to a chain of training institutes. You don’t get one but three layers of trainers and reviewers giving feedback on your dog so if one technique doesn’t work for you, they will find something g that does. And most importantly, you get personalized responses because once you join, you get every person’s phone number. No call centers, no waiting on the line. Bottom line is: I have and would continue to recommend them to anyone who asks me for trainers, I will use them again if I get another dog and I will continue to promote and put in a good word for them. Feel free to ask for any questions about my experience with them!

We have had a great experience with Dog Training Elite! From the free initial evaluation with Gus, to our weekly sessions with Matthew, each member of the team has been a pleasure to work with. Our dog has made tremendous progress with their help.

I cant say enough good things about Marie and the team. They are very knowledgeable and passionate. The quality of their training is fantastic. They listen to your dog’s needs and customize the training. We recommend them without reservation

(Translated by Google) Our experience as a family has been excellent. Kenai, our German Shepherd son, has progressed incredibly with this program. Gustavo and Marie are the best. (Original) Nuestra experiencia como Familia ha sido excelente. Kenai que es nuestro Pastor Aleman hijo ha avanzado increiblemte con este programa . Gustavo y Marie son los mejores

I am as IMPRESSED with their training ethics and professionalism’s as much as with their care, love, and dedication to each dog they train. ACE is amazing thanks to them! BOTH GUS & MARIE have helped me train my puppy since he is 3 months old and they are TOP. Their program is a super complete… He is now nine months and about to be certified. You get private classes, group classes each weekend and way more! Hands down the best of Florida!!!

Great professional trainers !

Our dog trainer, Matthew is a game-changer! He's transformed our puppy's demeanor, making her more confident and calm. His accommodating schedule and attentive nature made training a breeze. We're forever grateful for his expertise and kindness. Highly recommend him and the company, Elite Broward!

I can't say enough great things about Dog Training Elite Broward. From day one, our trainer Matt Wong, was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient with both me and my pup. The entire team takes the time to understand our needs and customize the training accordingly. My dog has shown amazing progress- better leash manners, improved recall, and much calmer in a group environment. The positive reinforcement techniques Marie and her team use really work, and I love that my pup enjoys her training and group sessions. They truly care about both dogs and their owners, and it shows in the results.

although I have been an experienced dog owner, when I came upon the challenge of brother and sister Great Dane puppies, I reached out to professionals for help. From the very first time I met our trainer, Matt. through the present time, I have been nothing but impressed and pleased. One of my dogs was very stubborn and took some extra care. Matt has been professional, patient understanding and compassionate with both my fur babies and myself. He’s punctual and timely which is much appreciated. He is even patient with assisting my young grandchildren and learning how to properly approach and address the dogs. If I could give 10 stars I would. I strongly recommend this company and especially our trainer Matt.

I hired Marie to help me train my Belgian Malinois as a Service Dog. We are still in the process of training but so far it's been an amazing experience working with Marie. She is helping me understand and communicate with my dog better than ever. Everything I'm learning, I am also applying to my other resident dog (mini-schnauzer) and now I've got the most amazing mini pack now! Would highly recommend since this program allows you to learn how to work with your dog and build the best relationship with your dog.

We couldn’t be more thrilled with Marie at Dog Training Elite! She has done an incredible job with our Dante, who is just 5 months old. From the very start, Marie has been exceptional at creating a solid foundation for him—not just in obedience but also in helping us as owners feel confident and informed. Every question we’ve had, no matter how small, she has answered with so much care and expertise. Marie’s love and dedication to dogs and her craft shine through in everything she does. Dante adores her, and so do we! It’s clear that she’s passionate about helping dogs and their families thrive, and we feel so lucky to have her guiding us through this journey. Thank you, Marie, for your hard work, patience, and the love you’ve shown to Dante! You’re truly the best! ♥️

If I could leave 10 stars for Elite Dog Training Broward I would. I have spent my life training teachers how to teach and have concluded that successful teaching requires an equal mix of love and competency. Marie, the owner, excels in both areas! My Labrador Retriever, Kairo, who is training to be a therapy dog LOVES Marie. He will do everything she asks … why? Because he feels her love and she knows exactly what she is doing. Her joy mixed with her competence is a magnet for dogs and their owners. Marie’s deep passion for dogs is contagious. I’ve learned so much especially clarity, consistency and also how to play with my dog. Marie’s entire team to include Gus and Matt make training so much fun! The entire team is well prepared, shows up on time, and is always encouraging. Every penny I paid for this training is worth it. I can’t wait for Kairo to begin therapy work. Because of the thorough and skilled training served up with laughter and love received from Marie and her team, Kai will be a wonderful and safe therapy dog bringing love to so many. Thank you, Marie, from the bottom of my heart. Forever grateful. Pat and Kairo

Dog Training Elite Broward provided a fantastic experience with their personalized training approach. Gus, one of their trainers, was especially helpful during the individual sessions. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure to tailor the training to our dog’s specific needs. Thanks to Gus, we saw significant improvements in obedience and behavior after just a few sessions. Highly recommend Dog Training Elite for anyone looking for effective dog training!

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the exceptional training that my dog, Brooklin, has received under Dog Training Elite’s guidance. The transformation in Brooklin's behavior and obedience is nothing short of remarkable, and it is a testament to the high-quality training provided by the esteemed team of Marie, Gus & Matthew. Marie's expertise and patience is pivotal in Brooklin's development. Her ability to connect with the dogs and tailor her approach to their individual needs is truly commendable. It is evident that she cares deeply about the well-being and progress of each canine in her class, and this dedication shines through in the results. After just two sessions, the improvement in Brooklin's obedience is clearly visible, and it brings me immense joy to see such positive changes. Furthermore, the dogs trained under Gus' guidance have shown remarkable improvements in obedience, agility, and task performance. His constant feedback and encouragement have been invaluable, especially during our public area training sessions. Gus's expertise and positive demeanor make the learning process enjoyable and effective, not just for Brooklin, but for me as well. His approach is not only professional but also filled with a genuine passion for helping dogs and their owners achieve their best. The environment at Dog Training Elite is one of support, encouragement, and professionalism. It is a place where dogs are not just trained but nurtured to become well-behaved and happy companions. The skills and techniques that Brooklin has learned are invaluable, and the confidence that both of us have gained from Dog Training Elite is immeasurable. The commitment to excellence in dog training has made a significant difference in our lives, and I am truly grateful for the positive impact Marie & Gus have had on Brooklin and myself

Excellent! I have had behavioral problems with my dog ​​and they have helped me with everything in a super simple and super easy way for us. Mathew the best!

I cannot express enough gratitude towards Marie and Gus at Dog Training Elite Broward for the incredible training they provided for my dog. Thanks to their dedication, my dog is now a confident and well-behaved therapy dog who is ready to bring joy to our community.

I have had many dogs. This is the first time I engaged a trainer. What a great experience. My dog is happier, not anxious and actually listens. The service is great for both owner and dog. Marie is wonderful. Patient and kind. I highly recommend this company!!!

It is motivational, admirable and inspiring to truly understand what your dogs are capable of. I highly recommend BTE to anyone who is looking to not only train their dog(s), but also resolve any behavioral issues you may be concerned about. Working with Marie is a treat for not only my two dogs, but also for us as owners. She’s a great coach and her methods will work for the long haul. If you are looking for a great dog training company, this is it.

Matthew is an exceptional dog trainer who is not only highly knowledgeable but also very patient. He has been instrumental in helping Sammy and me build a stronger bond. His clear and understandable explanations of the training steps have made a significant difference in our progress. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a dedicated and skilled dog trainer. Gus is also great and very consistent with making sure that you are scheduled for classes.

Ok, look no further. This is by far the best dog training school in Florida! It's called ELITE because that is how they work! Marie and Gus are extremely professional and knowledgeable, and they truly care for your pets, using the best methods to ensure no harm comes to your furry babies. I can confirm that their methods really work, as one of my dogs went through a lot of trauma. They gave her life back, and she is soon to be on her best behavior. Thank you, Marie, for being such an amazing coach and fun to work with! You are a blessing to our family. Sophye Nolet, Margate, Florida

I would rate them 5 Stars Outstanding From the first contact with Marie's team, I found the professional, willing and able to help with our 5 year old Plot Hound rescue. We rescued our Tazzy from a no kill shelter 6 months ago. We are dog lovers and have two wonderful dogs who live to the age of 14. Tazzy is by far the most active. We don't know her history but found her aggressive with anyone coming to the door or gate. From the first lesson, Marie was always helpful in explaining each step she was taking with the training. I soon realized we need to remain calm but in control when Tazzy acted out. We needed training too. With Marie's guidance, patience and authority, Tazzy's behavior with strangers is very much improved. We would recommend Marie's Dog Training Elite to everyone who wants to learn how to adjust their thinking and methods in training their dog. They are remarkable!

It's been a great experience to work with Marie and Matt. I love the personal service and the attention to my dog. My dog's behavior has changed so much and I've learned so much on how to be consistent and teach him new things. I'm so grateful for Marie's lessons and personal touch.

Amazing business they realy know what they do, i had a teainer for one off my dogs that i thought it was amazing untill i meet Dog training Elite cant be happier with them Thx team

Working with Maria, Gus and Matt to give Vinnie, our Goldendoodle, some extra training has been amazing. They are warm, friendly and give expert advice. Easy to contact and great with responses. Absolutely recommend them for your training needs.

Thank you so much guy to helping me out with my dog since he was just fourth month. We have such a good time at classes and is all the result of your dedication and attention to every single dog in there.

Excellent program with personal service suited to our specific needs. We can see progress on dog behavior from day to day working together with the trainer and our personal commitment. The personal touch from the trainer is highly appreciated making the process fun for us and our dog.

Thank you for helping me train my puppy! she went from wild to manageable and getting better every day! Matt the trainer was so sweet with her, she loved him!

Great service. Our dog Buttercup really enjoyed the training sessions and her behavior has improved so much. Thank you to all the staff of Dog Training Elite Broward.

I have been having a great experience this far with my dogs training. Marie has been patient and gentle while working with my reactive/anxious dog. We have had 6 individual classes and 1 group class so far and my dog has shown such great improvement. I am also being conditioned to be more relax when walking him and more confident in my expected action of my dog from my commands.

Thanks for all trainers. Our dog is a golden retriever 3.5 years old. We took her to parks, hotels and travel with her. She has a good behavior and love with people. Marie and her staff done very good work

Marie’s patience and dedication has been beyond what I ever expected. The Dog training Elites team is exceptional. Their compassion and pride in what they do is evident. I am beyond pleased with how our furry companion has progressed and continues to progress. We look forward to our appointments because they are always so successful. I highly recommend Dog Training Elite. I cannot thank Marie and Gus from Elite Training enough for everything they’ve done and continue to do.

I want to begin what a comfortable and trusting experience Marie and Gus made my decision to add Dog Training Elite to my Cane Corso’s regiment. I needed a strong, yet gentle trainer that would know the exact needs of my furever friend. I found that in Marie and DTE. My pup needed one on one training, as well as classes where he would get to know other dogs in a group setting. The dog park was not where I wanted him to learn. Marie teaches the basic fundamentals of obedience and guidance, both for the owner and your pup. That was an added plus to know the obedience started with ME! There is no hesitation for me to know this was and is currently the best fit for me and my Corso. The company has strong roots and is well established. Marie really takes her time to get to know your pup. I can’t say enough positives about this company and the personal and loving approach that has been provided. I STRONGLY recommend you to give it a try and see all what I am taking about. I have seen such a huge difference in my dog and the techniques we have been shown really work. This is a training you will have with you forever. Don’t hesitate to reach out to Marie and DTE. I have seen this work first hand from the smallest to biggest, older to younger. Even if you think it’s too early or your dog is too far gone to learn, you’ll be ultimately surprised as to what can be done. It’s a true transformation, tailored to you and your buddy. There is no cookie cutter approach, and Marie knows the needs of each one. So try, I did, and it’s the best decision I made for the both of us!

Marie and Gus truly are the last trainers you’ll ever need for your dog! No app or program could never even come close to the results that you will INSTANTLY see with your dog after the first session. The professionalism, compassion, and precision with which they handle our pups is masterful. Our dogs run to each of them when they arrive! They love them so much! We were seeking a comprehensive training program, and boy did they deliver. Please, please give Gus and Marie a try!! It will change your household!

Marie is an outstanding dog trainer who possesses a wealth of knowledge and goes above and beyond to help her clients. Her expertise in dog behavior and training techniques is truly impressive, resulting in effective and lasting results. What sets Marie apart is her genuine care and dedication to each dog she works with, taking the time to understand their unique needs and tailoring her methods accordingly. She is always available to offer guidance and support, extending her assistance beyond the training sessions. If you're searching for a knowledgeable and compassionate dog trainer who will bring out the best in your furry friend, Marie is the perfect choice!

Best dog trainer I’ve ever had !

Love Marie and her team. My baby GSD Nala is 6 month and she started training at 3 months and we are so happy with all she has learned and accomplished thanks to DTEB. Thank you we � you all!!

Where to even begin? Dog Elite is by far the best in south Florida. Marie and Gus are absolutely wonderful and easy to talk to. The support they provide will instantly make you feel better about whatever situation you’re in. I went into this not really knowing how it will be. I have a 5 year old Dutch shepherd that was aggressive towards people; however the way Marie handled her was astonishing. You would’ve thought that it was her dog! They are great individuals and I love the program that they have. It isn’t just a trainer-owner thing, you feel like you develop more of a friendship and that’s what makes it valuable and worth it. Try them out and you won’t regret it.
