    Training with Gray is a great experience for us and Bailey. We are looking forward to the group training in the coming weeks. Dog Training Elite Hill Country is a great outfit and I recommend they to anyone who is concerned about their Dog's behavior.

    These guys are incredible, super sweet but firm. They really do care and take the time to answer your questions. They are straight to the point and don’t sugar coat anything. If it weren’t for my young German Shepherd’s training here I’d be in a very bad situation and having to give up a dog I love. About 6 months ago I moved into an apartment with my small child and still going strong! There were a few hiccups getting the dog adjusted to a completely different living situation and our trainer was easy to get a hold of and issues were fixed on the spot! I would recommend this company to everyone total life changers.

    We are so glad that we chose Dog Training Elite Hill Country to help us train our young golden doodle. Gray really knows dog training. He is patient, understanding, and knowledgable. He is like the "dog whisperer". When someone can get your dog to do something in a minute that you have spent an hour on you know you have hired the right person. We knew that the training would include come, sit, down, heel, but for our dog "place" was an unexpected, much used benefit. Gray gave us a systematic approach that could be used to train and even re-train with. It was all done with sensitivity and kindness. Denise was very good at the communication side also. She made it easy and fast to get appointments and answer questions.

    Gray and Denise with DTE are awesome! They helped my pup overcome his anxiety tremendously, through giving us literally step by step instructions on how we can work with him. They are super patient and understanding people. I would highly recommend!!!

    Gray and Denise are great. Gray in just a few short weeks has trained my dog and more importantly me and my wife. Our German Shepherd, Hades, has turned into a new, happier dog and we are not even half way done.

    Dog Training Elite Hill Country is magnificent! Gray and Denise have only been generous, upfront, and friendly with me and my dog! Axel is an ESA who is going with me to college; he is very high energy and rambunctious. Their training program equipped me with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to train Axel even with his outgoing personality traits. I have gained a stronger bond with my dog and have made new friends since enrolling in this training. If I could leave a review with one million stars, I would! Thank you so much, Dog Training Elite Hill Country.

    Our puppy Archie (smooth coat border collie) was a handful. We were at our wit's end with his potty issues, neediness, and disobedience. Gray and Denise of Dog Training Elite were just that - elite! Gray's easy way, kind heart and expert dog training skills helped Archie transform into a WonderDog. Off! Come! Heel! Place! He does it all. Archie can even file our taxes now! 😉 He's even working on his MBA, thanks to Gray. And Denise made sure Gray was on-time and well equipped with helpful literature and everything we needed to make this experience absolutely awesome. You'd be lucky to have this team helping you help your dog reach his/her peak potential.

    I chose the option to have training at my home as well as group gatherings. I have a high energy Aussie/Boarder Collie and she is responding very well. Gray Has such patience and confidence with her. Keona is still full of energy, but she listens to commands and is learning new things as we go. Training the pups is the easy part but do keep in mind that the human element has to be willing to learn and work with your loved one for the process to be successful I highly recommend his company and the services they offer.

    Make no bones about it, I would recommend the owners of Dog Training Elite Hill Country to anyone who is looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy, and caring individuals to train their dog. Not only do Denise and Gray dedicate their time and attention to training your dog but they also give the owner the confidence needed to sustain what is taught during the training process. They are the top dog when it comes to what they do and with their services, you’ll see that anything is paw-sible for your four-legged family member!

    Denise and Gray have shown me how to work with a very sweet, large dog with lots of puppy energy. She’s done very well with her training. The knowledge and training that Denise and Gray have shared with me has been so helpful. They are incredibly professional and clearly take pride in training dogs while remaining very personable.

    Denise has been training dogs for over 20 years. Truth be told, they were her own dogs, but she always had a way with them. She took them everywhere she went, and she even trained her dogs to shake “hands” when meeting people. Gray has an affinity for dogs and it’s in his heart to help you be the leader of your pack thus allowing your dog to be your best friend. Denise and Gray are big believers in having your dog be a valuable, and well-behaved, member of the family. Dogs will misbehave when they don’t have the loving guidance of a true leader. Denise and Gray will teach you how to be that true leader that your dog needs.

    I’ve known the owners of DTE personally for many years. They are hard working, honest, and trust worthy. I’d trust them with my child so anyone can certainly trust them with their dogs!
