Goldendoodle Training in Green Bay / Appleton, WI

I can’t say enough great things about Dog Training Elite! My dog Dyna and I just completed their program, and the entire experience was amazing from start to finish. A huge shoutout to Marcy and Mitch—they were absolutely incredible to work with. Both of them were extremely knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in our success. They took the time to understand Dyna’s personality and tailored the training to fit her specific needs, which made all the difference. If you’re considering dog training, I highly recommend Dog Training Elite, especially if you get the chance to work with Marcy and Mitch. This program was 100% worth it.

Ramiro worked with my Aussie Brooks! Brooks is very high energy and we wanted to get him to listen better on command. Ramiro worked to personalize our experience and we got the exact training we were hoping for! Looking forward to group classes in the future.

Ramiro was great to work with! It was so convenient that he came to our house for training sessions. Our dog Gordy has made amazing progress—he’s tackled his fear of floors and is now getting along so much better with my husband. We highly recommend Dog Training Elite!

Ramiro was great to work with. We called and set up consultation and we were on schedule the next week. We did 8 week of training and Gordy our dog has improved incredibly.

So many WONDERFUL things to say about DTE and Stephany and the crew. They’re always so kind and attentive to the dogs needs and are very helpful with any struggle that you and your dog needs to overcome. It’s always a fun time going to group classes and doggy day camp! Thank you guys for being so great!!!

Larissa was such an amazing help from day one! She really understood our boy Lewis and allowed him the space to gain comfort and confidence. He was previously very reactive, and still has improvements to make, but Larissa gave us the tools and the knowledge to improve our bond and our dogs life!

So happy with Dog Training Elite and how far our dog Walter has come with his training. Our trainer was Larissa and she was amazing! She was professional, flexible the times we had to change an appt or two, and knowledgeable about our dogs quirks and mannerisms. She was very patient with our stubborn dog and knew how to get results and train Walter well. She also did great with getting our dog and showing us how to stop his resource guarding which was our main concern on top of everything else we were able to accomplish with Walter. We have so much more confidence taking our dog for walks in public and new places that we would’ve second guessed before. Our dog loves her and gets so excited to see her. We would recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone looking to have their trained and behave better. Larissa is a great trainer and personable as well (also love her dog Zero! What a well behaved role model!) Can’t say enough good things about our experience with DTE.

Ramiro was amazing getting our crazy 120lb American Bulldog to settle and be a good listener! We can take him on walks without being dragged down the road!! I really love the in home training and can’t wait to attend the group classes at their facility.

Hannah did such an amazing job helping us navigate how to work with our stubborn pup! Our dog has made so much progress. He is less easily distracted and walks so much better on a leash.

We have been working with Hannah to get our service dog Pesto trained and it’s been a great experience. Our dog adores her and she’s great at helping us keep Pesto on track. We are so happy that we choose Dog Training Elite for her training.

Ramiro did an incredible job walking us through the process with Koda. The transformation from the beginning was noticeable and welcome. We have the tools necessary to keep moving forward. It was well worth the investment to have confidence in managing Koda’s instincts and getting the desired behavior. We would highly recommend Ramiro and Dog Training Elite to help in your situation.

Wow. I am very impressed with the training Annie and Oakley received at Dog Training Elite (DTE). Mitch and Tina are patient and attentive camp counselors/trainers. They did a great job helping Annie and Oakley to improve their manners and learn new skills. (Ms. Manners would be proud). Special kudos to Marcy who coached the dogs and me as we worked through annoying, challenging and bothersome behaviors at home. Marcy is an exceptional trainer. She possesses outstanding dog training skills, great people skills and exceptional communication skills. The girls are definitely starting to flourish as new behavior expectations are established and achieved. The combination of day camp and home visits is a winning formula. As the dog training journey continues, we look forward to attending group classes and watching the girls thrive and become great canine citizens. The customer service I received, from the moment I inquired through camp and home visits, has been exceptional. It is clear that DTE leadership and team members are not only committed to providing great canine training but also on delivering outstanding and professional customer service. Bravo Team DTE!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Stephany, Ramiro and the team are so great! They took on two of our puppies at once! Both dogs will be service dogs and they worked very hard to understand the needs of our 2 sons so that they could train the dogs for them as individuals! They were VERY patient with the humans too! They are helping us work through all situations with respect and patience. They also do an AMAZING job work with my son who has severe anxiety! They made him feel confident and heard! Although everyone has been amazing, Marcy, Tina and Mitch worked very hard to prepare them during their days at the facility. Marcy has done the after visits and continues to be SO supportive and accommodating to our family's needs. BRAVO to the team at Dog Training Elite! Excited to see the growth that we will all see in the next steps of our training!

I cannot speak highly enough about our experience with Larissa. She was outstanding—kind, knowledgeable, and truly gifted at what she does. Our dog, who we honestly thought might be too old to learn new tricks (or even just basic good behavior), responded incredibly well to her approach. It was a pleasure having Larissa come to our home week after week. Having in‑home training—especially since we live 50 minutes outside of Green Bay—was such a huge benefit and made the entire process so much easier for us. Five stars to Elite Dog Training, and an extra‑bright 5+ stars to Larissa!

Overall, I highly recommend this trainer to anyone looking for effective, compassionate dog training. The results were noticeable, and my dog is now more confident, obedient, and happy.

Larissa was the BEST! She worked with our dogs, Honey and Bane on basic obedience and some reactivity to other dogs. Our dogs are SO much better now. One of our favorite things we worked on was “place”so our dogs would sit on our couch when someone came over and they wouldn’t greet them until we release them. We also enjoyed working with our dogs to be more neutral while walking. When training dogs, you also have to train the owners and Larissa did a great job navigating the situation when we had some stressful training sessions. Sometimes our dogs were being stubborn and my fiancé and I were both getting frustrated. But Larissa calmed us both down and we were able to have a productive session. Larissa is very patient and always very positive. We looked forward to our sessions each week. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!

We had a great experience working with Hannah Randall from Dog Training Elite. She was professional, knowledgeable, and very flexible with scheduling, which made the training process easy to manage. She explained things clearly and helped us feel confident continuing the training on our own between sessions. A good dog trainer doesn't just work with the dog but also teaches the owners how to be consistent and effective, and Hannah did exactly that. We saw real progress and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive dog trainer.

Dog Training Elite and trainers Marcy and Mitch are absolutely incredible!!! 💛🐾 The team at Dog Training Elite is so professional, patient, and insanely knowledgeable. They didn’t just work with Albus, they taught us how to confidently lead him and actually understand what he needed. Their training was structured but still personalized to him, and they really focused on getting to the root of his anxiety and reactivity. And now?! Albus is calm, responsive, and SO confident 🥹✨ He walks right past other dogs without any issues, follows commands beautifully, and is genuinely such a joy to take anywhere. I actually look forward to outings now instead of stressing about them. The transformation has truly been life-changing for our family. If you’re even a little unsure about training, this is your sign. Dog Training Elite is worth every single penny. We are beyond grateful and could not recommend them more!!! 🐶💫

We sought out training because Bert, our two year old golden doodle, was barking a lot while we were away. We went with Dog Training Elite because of the positive Google reviews and chose the platinum package because the investment comes with ongoing support if something comes up in the future. We worked with Hannah, she was very knowledgeable and was a great fit. Bert responded well to her and she made things easy for us to understand. Hannah has positive energy and during our sessions we could see her passion for training. She talked us through challenging situations and gave us the confidence we needed to guide Bert. She customized sessions to meet Bert’s needs and never felt rushed. She always had great communication. Bert had a strong base but we were skeptical on how the training would improve the barking while away. Not only have we seen improvements with the barking we have also seen improvements with general obedience and walking without being distracted. We found value in the platinum package and are happy with our investment. We look forward to participating in the group classes and seeing continued progress.

Training with Ramiro has been life changing for our family!!!! Our beautiful boy Donnie started becoming very insecure and reactive towards strangers and other dogs at the age of 8 months old. We assumed he had become aggressive but quickly into his training it was clear that he was just scared. We stopped bringing him places and felt very sad and defeated. We have 2 small children and knew this wouldn’t work long term with them wanting friends over to play someday. We were worried that we could possibly waste our money if the training didn’t work but that definitely was not the case! Seeing our baby boy transform before our eyes has been an incredible feeling and we just feel so proud!! It has been worth every penny! If you are reading these reviews unsure or trying to find a push to go for it, here it is!! Thank you Ramiro and Elite!!
