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 Fort Wayne 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.

    We had a wonderful experience with Nathan! He came to our home and was so patient, knowledgeable, and great with our dog. He took the time to explain everything clearly and gave us easy, effective techniques that made a big difference right away. You can tell he truly cares about both dogs and their owners. We’re so glad we worked with him and highly recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a professional trainer!

    Dog training elite has a great program. They not only trained Tonka but our family as well in how to help us reinforce the training session throughout the week. By demonstrating the techniques and then empowering us to take over allowed us to go from not having people over to our house to having guests. Nathan was great with Tonka and you can see he wants the best for him. Great experience, especially if you do the homework.

    Clint has done such an Amazing job with our German Shepherd Puppy Jax. From the first session it's been so much better in our household. Jax being a puppy wanted to bite us all the time. We tried everything but he wouldn't stop. That was until we hired Dog Training Elite and Clint was the trainer. I Love the fact that the come to our house to do the training so you can see what and how they do the training. If you are having any issues with your dog, please reach out to them. Thank you Clint for all you do for our Jax and for us.

    We’re very pleased with our DTE experience. Through our private sessions we worked with Nathan, who did an excellent job at focusing on not only on our dog, but also teaching us how to be better handlers. Our puppy, Dazzle, has grown miles in confidence and handler focus, and we’re now able to take her on adventures without stressing about her anxiety! We’re super grateful for the relational benefit that training has given us, and excited to continue on to group classes!

    We are SOOO impressed with Clint's skills and ability to understand how to train our dog. She is a totally new animal and we couldn't be happier. The training is worth every penny and will change our relationship with Tessa for the rest of our lives!!

    I had one on one sessions with Clint and he did a phenomenal job!! This experience has been worth every dime!! I am the Assistant Director of 911 and working on having a Therapy Dog in Dispatch and this has been a fantastic experience. It is so nice to have a dog that listens and does what you say!! Clint understands the dog and knows when she's "done" with training. I would recommend Dog Training Elite every time!! You will not be disappointed!!

    We adopted a Siberian Husky puppy from a shelter. She is full of energy and super destructive. When I learned that we would be using an e-collar for the training I was a little concerned at first that perhaps it would be harmful to our puppy. What I learned was completely the opposite - the e-collar does not hurt the dog and it's super effective. I honestly don't even know how we would train her without it. Clint is amazing! When he came to our house to work with both of our Siberian Huskies he was patient and thorough and used a discipline I have rarely seen. If you're worried about the e-collar - don't be. It doesn't hurt the dog and it helps them understand boundaries and commands. You should call Dog Training Elite. There is no other service you will need! They work with service dogs and hospitals and are trusted 100% in the community!

    I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Nathan and Clint. When we first started, Tucker wouldn’t let either of them come near him—he was reactive and nervous around strangers, and I wasn’t sure how far we’d get. But thanks to their patience, consistency, and expert approach, Tucker is now a completely different dog. They took the time to build trust at Tucker’s pace, and the results speak for themselves. I can now take him out in public, around new people, and he stays calm and under control—something I never thought possible just a few weeks ago. If you’re struggling with a reactive or anxious dog, I highly recommend working with Nathan and Clint. They gave Tucker the confidence he needed, and gave me the tools to support him every step of the way.

    Thank you to Nathan and Clint! Tripp made a complete 180 in his obedience from his first class to only his 4th class. We look forward to his future progress with DTE!

    I have had Clint and Nate come train my Grace. They are excellent at not only training Grace, but training me as well. I have had trainers before for other dogs and they no way compare to these two gentlemen. I would definitely and have recommended them.

    Clint has been amazing, within the first visit I noticed a change in my puppy. With his knowledge and my practice she is showing great growth just within a few weeks. I cannot wait to see what the future brings. And to show her off!

    Dog Training Elite NE Indiana has been an absolute godsend for me. I rescued a Staffordshire/Pitbull mix almost 2 years ago and only recently started seeing protective/aggressive behaviors that concerned me. My husband and I called and they set up a meeting. We ended up going with them, and I am SO grateful we did. I am ENJOYING walks with my dog (previously those were exhausting with pulling and fear of being able to control her). We can have people into our home and we actually worked through several of her unusual fear responses to different things in the home as well. I am SO proud of her, and SO THANKFUL that my husband and I made this investment into her for our family. I feel like these tools can be used for any other dog that we might get in the future, and having a lifetime of help with this dog is huge so that we can continue working on the commands that Dog Training Elite taught us.

    Our experience with our St. Bernard was amazing! Nate was great with our girl Elly. She progessed from a crazy puppy to a well-behaved dog. I was not a fan of e-collars before this but I'm a believer now after being trained in how to use them properly. I would recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone who wants a high quality experience with their dog.

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
Read Less

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 Northeast Indiana 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!
