Frequently Asked Questions

General
One of our trainers will visit your home to meet you and your dog and discuss any issues you're facing. We will then demonstrate one of our model dogs so you can see what you can expect after hiring our trainers. From there, we will discuss the various packages we offer and which we feel best suit your (and your dog's) needs.
We provide full obedience training that covers all basic commands, both on and off-leash. Our in-home visits target specific issues like counter-surfing, digging, and more. Unlike some trainers, we work with all breeds, including those often considered challenging.
Yes. You (and anyone in your family who wants to be involved) are integral to your dog getting trained. We need you to practice 5-6 days a week, about 15-20 minutes a day for optimal results.
Once a week. We come to you (with the silver, gold and platinum packages) once a week to start your dog off, then you come to park sessions which are held once a week in Katy.
To effectively resolve specific issues, we need to start with a solid foundation in obedience. This approach helps you become a confident leader for your dog, which is key to addressing and preventing behavioral problems.
Nope. Those are dangerous grounds to tread upon. We'd much rather train a vicious dog!
We train dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your dog is a tiny Chihuahua or a large Mastiff, we have the experience and expertise to work with them.
Yes. Working with and controlling aggression is one of our specialties in Katy.
We focus on training companion dogs for veterans and individuals with PTSD and other psychological conditions. In addition to service animals, we also train therapy dogs that visit hospitals, nursing homes, and treatment centers.
To be a service dog, your dog needs to have an even temperament. Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Standard Poodles, Goldendoodles, etc. typically have a great temperament for service work. For some types of service work, your dog will need to have AKC certifications (such as Canine Good Citizen or Community Canine) which we are able to certify. As always, we would be happy to assess your dog's aptitude for service work for free!

    Jan, Alex, and Jackson are exemplars with my dog Twain . However, most important, they know how to coach the dog owner. I could not have found a better company then Elite Dog Training.

    I cannot recommend Dog training elite west enough! Especially grateful to my puppy trainer Jan. My one-year-old dog used to be an absolute whirlwind—hyperactive, destructive, and intense. He even chewed up the walls of my apartment! I was at my wits’ end. From the very first training session with Jan, I noticed an immediate change in his behavior. It’s been incredible to see how much progress he’s made. He’s calmer, more focused, and so much easier to manage now. The transformation is something I didn’t think was even possible.

    DTE has been amazing with my baby, my dog had so many behavioral issues and in 3 day I already started seeing results, within two weeks he was a whole new dog. Thank you so much to his trainer Jan for always being there for Draco and always taking the extra step with him! You guys are all amazing

    Gosh, I can't love this place more. Jan is FANTASTIC. He trained our service dog, Leia, and I have zero negative things to say. He is thorough, patient, and so knowledgeable. If we ever get another dog we will 100% come back here and request him. You won't be disappointed in using DTE!

    Our experience with Dog Training Elite has been absolutely wonderful. Talia has been amazing and our Lucy went from very little training to acting service dog for our son in a very short time frame. Our lives have been changed for the better. We 100% recommend this company- they are kind, dedicated, and the most effective trainers I’ve ever worked with.

I grew up on a cattle farm in Virginia. I have owned and trained our family dogs since I was 8. I have worked in the restaurant industry for the last 10 years—both as a Franchisee and for the Corporate office where I trained franchise owners and their teams. I have always loved working with animals, and now I get to help families build a better relationship with their dogs!

I grew up in the Houston area in a house full of animals. While attending Sam Houston State University I began training with Dog Training Elite as a Service Dog client. During this time I quickly realized just how much joy there was in seeing the tremendous progress my own dog made throughout the program. My unruly and dog reactive shelter pup turned into a well mannered service dog…the training was life changing for me. Upon graduating from SHSU with my BFA in Media Production I decided that I wanted to help others have the opportunity to experience this program by becoming a Trainer with DTE. I know first hand just how amazing this company is. I have always worked in the service industry and enjoy helping people connect with their furry friends in order to bring out their best in all that they can do. I currently reside with my cat, who thinks he runs the world, and my sweet service dog “Fish”. I love that I get to do this life changing work every day!
