First training with Kenna went great! Our little Poppy loved it. We’re so excited to start this journey!

Great

Very friendly and kind .

Julia doesn’t overwhem the owner (or the dog) with training. She makes it common sense.

First day of training and already seeing improvments

Julia did a great job. My dog learned a lot & so did I. My dog loved her.

Lulu had training with Julia today. Julia is so good with her and I feel like she is progressing. My husband and I are very impressed with Julia’s knowledge and especially her patience with our sweet baby. Looking forward to next week’s lesson!

Montana came for a consultation for training. She was very thorough and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend, we are so excited to start our training for our dog.

Graci was amazing! Answered all my questions ☀️

Wonderful experience today with Montana from Elite..communicates clearly, knowledgable, and she is a friendly, kind person. The training is best price I have found for in home and classes. They offer service and obedience. She works individually with the dogs abilities. I am excited to have my first training.

Great first training session! She was patient and knowledgeable. We are off to a good start.

Parker, Montana and team are reliable, consistent, extremely competent, and professional. They mix all of these traits with a level of empathy and caring that make them very effective. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my thumbless child. It’s just too bad y’all don’t have a ten-star rating, because I would give him 11.

Renia, is who I have been working with so far and she is amazing. Also the company worked with me on a payment plan, due to the Government shutdown and I have never been more grateful. I highly recommend them for any training needs, from basic obedience, to a service animal.

Carol did a great job and my dog is starting to improve some of his difficult behaviors. I am anxious to see more improvement in the future.

Carol did a great job with presentation, and was very friendly to me and my pet.

Montana with Dog Training Elite is fantastic to work with. We dog parents love her and her style of training; now our baby pup, Rado, well….he would appreciate her not visiting his home 🤣😇

Carol is easily one of the finest trainers I have met. I would trust her completely to work with my dog and me. I cannot afford training at this time, however. I appreciate her time and skill.

Montana is a lovely young lady and Lydia took to her right away! This is in Nashville, by the way. She explained everything about the training program very well. She listened to the things I would like to do with Lydia and what I would like Lydia to be able to do. I appreciated her spending the amount of time she did and I felt well informed about the program. Thank you Montana, for throwing that BALL!!

Met with Parker for assessment of our dog. He was professional and helpful. Had 2nd lesson with Kenna made great strides in our dog's training Thank you Montana trained today. Great job explained all the steps and reasons for them Thank you Kenna has been training us and we couldn't be happier. Our dog has made huge improvement in obedience and makes life much more enjoyable Thank you

Gracie was sweet and very personable. She explained the program in detail ans provided a estimate for the service.

Effective , friendly all good

I genuinely love the work that Dog Training Elite does. From each in home training, to public outings, the knowledge is just incredible. I learn more each session and my dog and I are genuinely comfortable in each scenario.

T first session was very educational and instructive. I have a very stubborn Doberman female that I now feel certain can be trained so that I can enjoy her. Thank you Reina, so much!!!!

Very understanding and thorough. No rush and answered all our questions.

First day of training was exceptionally informative. Julia was extremely professional and knowledgeable instilling confidence moving forward. I definitely know I made the right choice for my service dog needs. 18 Sept 2025: Fast forward into a few sessions later and still absolutely impressed with the level of professionalism and results

I’ve been training with Dog Training Elite for a few months now and it has been such a great experience. I’ve trained mostly with Graci. She has a calm, sweet & gentle personality that works great for my pup and I who are more laid back individuals. If you are looking for a place that is affordable, kind, & truly military friendly this is the place for you.

Reina was very attentive to my dog's needs. Very knowledgeable. A plus trainer. Guided me towards better training practices

Carol was completely loved by our dog. That's a HUGE part in our decision making about a trainer. She was very nice, personable, kind and professional. We are hoping to be able to have her as our trainer.

This place is the best! Our cute little puppy learned so much, but we learned even more! Their program is just amazing and I would highly recommend them!

Reina was amazing and answered all my questions.

Let me tell youe Gracie she was a wonderful teacher. She even taught me a lot and I was pleased with her very much. She seems like she's dedicated to the animals and she wants to make them do right, and I am so proud that I am part of Gracie's team. I'm so glad We were chosen to enter this program.

Montana is an excellent trainer whose care and understanding make her the best in her field.

Kenna was very informative and explained the process very well. I beleive that we made great progress in our first session.

Great service as always our is progressing very well

My dog loved working with Montana and so did I! We are super happy she just passed her Public Access Exam thanks to the team at Elite.

Great and Lasting Experiences with Raina and the other Trainers from Elite which have given me and my dog a great amount of their time to be personable, interactive, inventive, and friendly during several months of training. Blondie my (Service Dog In Training) has accomplished many learned tasks. He and I, both are looking forward to enrolling, be successfully trained, and accomplishing the Service Dog Training by Elite personnel in the near future. Please wish us all the bests!

Carol is obviously very professional and knowledgeable with a friendly demeanor.

Montana, as well as all of the staff with Elite have been wonderful to work with. I’ve been extremely pleased with the expertise shown by Montana (and McKenna) as well as their calm and reassuring demeanors. Highly recommend!

She did an amazing job. She was extremely helpful. Norman loved her. She s all how sweet he is and she is very helpful. Thank you so much. Keep her employed cause she does a great job.

We had our 3rd 1:1 training session today. Parker, Dog Training Elite Nashville owner, and Montans came to train us and our 4 yr old Aussiedoodle, Blu. Parker led a master class and I got to watch an actual Dog Whisperer in action! He was whispering to Blu many words of praise. Blu is a very capable dog, but we have allowed him to live with high anxiety towards strangers and all children. Within 10 minutes we reviewed our sit and come commands and then Parker handled with Blu to work through some of his fears. Within minutes, Blu was able to lie by Parker, who was seated on the floor, and he was letting Parker gently pet him! I was moved to tears of joy and hope. Parker helped me to understand the concept and components of positive correction training. That with correct, consistent use of the e-collar, holding Blu to high standards, and offering him patient, calm commands and praise, we can help Blu learn to trust us and appropriately behave in the world. What a blessing!!! I'm so pumped about what is possible for our whole family with Blu. Thank you.

So far so good! Parker was very patient and kind while training ME to handle my resource guarding Frenchie lol Turns out my pup has more issues than resource guarding. It appears to be my Pup may be spoiled and Dog Training Elite has taken on the challenge to fix us. Cheers to a great start of a new beginning.

Reina helped us train our golden retriever puppy. She was excellent and a complete professional. We are looking forward to seeing her again at our group sessions! Highly recommend Reina!

Awesome 1st impression with Montana at Dog Training Elite Nashville. Our in home evaluation went extremely well. She explained everything great and answered all our questions.

Montana is a wonderful and caring trainer! We highly recommend dog training elite!

The trainer is very nice and respectful!!! They are patient and always have time for you and your fur baby!!

Awesome very knowledgeable and understanding really was interested in what I was looking to get out this Training very much put my mind at ease

Reina is awesome, very patient with my dog and ME! 😊

Amazing 3rd session. Our puppy absolutely enjoys his instructor. Thank you

Montana is fantastic!

We loved her! Extremely knowledgeable and she made our dog feel comfortable with her within a few minutes. Which isn’t easy for him.

We have nothing but good things to say about Dog Training Elite. All of the trainers we interacted with were helpful and knowledgeable — it’s clear they understand dogs and humans. They were flexible with our schedule and so supportive of our family. We would definitely recommend them to others looking to enhance their relationship with their dog.

Friendly. Detailed in explanation of services. Great interaction with my pup!

Gracie is absolutely awesome. She is very clear explaining how the training works. She has a smile on her face. She's kind and excellent at her job. Love her!

Graci was great! Very knowledgeable and answered all my questions!

She not only made it a successful visit but also a fun one for both me and my dog.

Montana was awesome! She was so sweet towards me and my family and very professional. She was thorough and very detail oriented. I appreciated her assessment and walking me through the buying process.

Montana is AMAZING!!

Very professional

Montana is excellent. A great teacher - she’s incredibly patient, and yet firm in her instruction and follow through. She has been great at helping us work through specific things and teaching us a myriad of skills so that our dog listens to us and not just her! Our pup is learning by the day and we can see a huge change in some of her behaviors, as well as just overall trust, rapport and respect in our relationship with her. Can’t recommend Montana enough!

Just finished my 1 on 1 sessions with Reina, Kenna and Graci and I am incredibly pleased with the professionalism, expertise and patience they have shown throughout the training process with me and my German Shepherd. I have learned more than I had hoped to and have no doubt that my pup and I will benefit from this training for years to come. Very pleased, excellent program, look forward to starting group classes and taking our training to the next level.

We had our first training session yesterday with Carol in our home. She was wonderful with our pup and did a great job explaining and then demonstrating the first three commands, then worked with us to practice those and identify our pups body language. Looking forward to the next lesson.

Lots of patience and guidance! Would highly recommend. She answered all of our questions and more!

Very knowledgeable and informative. Super friendly to my babies. THANK YOU MONTANA!

Reina did a wonderful job putting together a plan for what we needed for our dog (Luna) unfortunately the price is high which we understand is an investment. Reina was very personal, communicative, and very knowledgeable. Also she sounded passionate about what she does a so we appreciate that. We will definitely recommend Reina's services to others.

Enjoyed chatting with Montana. She is very knowledgeable and kind and most importantly, my dogs loved her!!!

Excellent

Oliver is learning so much!

Our dog loves her newly learned commands and all the praise she gets for showing off her skills! We have been very happy with the training from Elite!

Let me begin by saying I highly recommend Dog Training Elite. Carol is AMAZING at her job and you can tell she loves what she does. I have a 1 1/2 year old German Shepherd (Luna) that she has totally trained way beyond what I expected. She has given me the tools and the confidence to become a better owner. Luna and I have a bond that continues to grow because of Carol. Carol is so patient with her clients and always takes the time to answer our questions and our concerns. When I am in public with Luna I am constantly getting stopped and being told that Luna is the most well behaved dog they have ever seen. Please don’t hesitate in choosing Dog Training Elite, you will not be disappointed!

Just completed second training session with Montana of Dog Training Elite and we are already seeing positive progress in our 17-month old golden’s behavior. Working towards positive behaviors that will allow us and our pup to thrive together at home and in public.

Montana was an amazing trainer for my Hidy girl! 🤍 my pup absolutely loved her “teacher”. We’ll always have fond memories of Hidy’s school days with Montana!

Graci came and helped us with our needs!! She made sure we understood everything about the training. I can’t wait to work with the team on training!

Reina is a wonderful trainer for our needs. She was straightforward, understanding, transparent, helpful, confident - all the necessary traits for a couple of newbies like us. She is an invaluable resource to rely on as our rambunctious puppy is turning into a well-behaved pup. The cost feels a little pricey, but our journey with Reina has eased the anxiousness around it. Highly recommend!

Great job. So far. Been working with our puppy now for 7 weeks. Thank you Cost is expensive but well worth it. Reina is amazing she's very patient very understanding very loving caring group of people. We have worked with a couple of other trainers but I really like Reina. If you get a chance take it

Will start training tomorrow, but the initial assessment went well. Was very impressed with what to expect from the outcome of the program. 1st session: Kenna was my trainer today and it went very well. She was kind and positive, my pup responded wonderfully.

Another great trip out with Kenna! She was so helpful! I highly recommend this company…next to the mall.

Dog Training Elite provide top-notch training for your dogs. Parker worked directly on leash aggression with Sam. The problem was corrected during our session. I highly recommend Dog Training Elite!

Reina's dedication to excellence helped "my Hannah" become a happy, obedient, and confident dog. When I adopted Hannah as a puppy from a shelter, she came to me with absolutely no training or discipline. I felt extremely frustrated because I was so unprepared to provide the training she needed, but Reina came right in and confidently met BOTH of our needs. She quickly made the adjustments we needed and personalized our program for us with tremendous patience and incredible kindness. Ultimately, she taught us both exactly what we needed to know!

I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with the services of Dog Training Elite of Nashville. Reina was wonderful. She was very professional but at the same time very friendly and kind. I can tell she really loves dogs and her job! The difference in my dog’s behavior is amazing. I no longer worry about being injured by being dragged down the street when I walk him, or having to lift him into the car. I can take him out with me more and he is so well behaved that everyone that sees him loves him. Thank you Reina!

Montana was extremely professional, very nice, friendly and LOVES DOGS! She was very helpful from our first training session on. I look forward in seeing how she can help in so many ways with my new puppy!!

So friendly and knowledgeable! Millie is making progress in less than a week!

Reina is wonderful! Our fur baby continually has progress week over week!! Our goal is to have Gabby trained as a service companion for our little one, with Raina's help, we are confident we will get there! We so appreciate all you do for us and think you, you are absolutely amazing!!!!

We did the assessment with Reina and they are fantastic! I would 100% recommend their services over anyone else.

She was very knowledgeable and helpful.

It was a very straightforward process and very detailed price wise was the only hit definitely looking in to it

Dog Training Elite, especially Parker has helped us enjoy our dog so much more. He does have the annoying troublesome behaviors. He’s more content and obedient. We can have guests over and everyone is comfortable. We are so pleased with what Dog Training has done for us.

Carol was super kind and helpful!

Carol listened to our situation and explained how things work. Looking forward to working with her with our pups. Update: 4/26 first training session for both puppies and it has already made a HUGE impact 💙

Great session, we learned a lot. Can’t wait for the next one!!!

Liam did a fine job of explanation of services....thanks.

I loved working with Montana! She established a great rapport with me and my dog. And, I’m so pleased with my dog’s progress in training with her.

When I called, I was greeted by an extremely pleasant voice. Attached to said voice was a wonderful young lady by the name of Jen. As I am older, a lot of people don’t take the time to truly try to help me. But Jen was phenomenal. She listened to my issues, soothed my worries and then provided me with exceptional support. More companies would benefit from having a soul like hers on the other end of the phone.

Jen is very helpful. She has a great way of explaining the program and training process.

Jen was very helpful with everything from start to finish

When I spoke with Jen, she was incredibly helpful and professional!

Montana is the best! Our 6 month old puppy has been seen a couple times now by Montana and is already like a brand new dog. On top of the professionalism, Montana is a very kind and friendly woman! We always look forward to her visits and love seeing the difference in our puppy! 100% recommend this company to train your dog and Montana to train!

Best place to go for any and everything you could ever want and see in your dog! Very friendly and professional people. All around great investment!!!

Reina did awesome with our Australian Shepherd puppy Ezekiel we got everything that we asked for out of the lessons for his obedience training definitely recommend!

Great job, this company and its employees are phenomenal. They made my dog felt love, and well respected. Rena as been outstanding with her training g routine and skills needed to get my 🐾 job done. Champ is well trained and I love it !!!!! I highly recommend this team

We contacted Elite and received a response from Jen with a scheduled free evaluation within 24 hours. Jen communicated effectively and was very nice! Carol was the trainer who completed our evaluation and got us all set up to start our training. She was knowledgeable, empathetic, and very easy to talk to! We are excited to start our training experience with Carol!

Carol is Amazing! I cannot say enough great things about Carol and her incredible work training my puppy! From the very first session, it was clear that she has a deep understanding of dogs and a true passion for what she does. Carol has been instrumental in helping my pup learn basic obedience, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. Her training techniques are effective, positive, and tailored to both my puppy’s needs and my own. She is patient, encouraging, and always takes the time to explain not just what to do but why it works, which has helped me build a stronger bond with my pup. Thanks to Carol, my puppy now listens better, responds to commands, and is becoming a well-mannered companion. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled, professional, and caring dog trainer. She truly goes above and beyond! If you need help with training, look no further—Carol is the best!

Carol has been great for our big boy! She gave us the tools to help him feel more relaxed and less like there is about to be an intruder any second. He went from guarding the house and barking aggressively at even a passing car to now he sometimes barks when other dogs bark. We also feel more relaxed taking him out in public, which I didn’t think could happen! Thank you!

Dog Training Elite has been amazing! My dog, Lola, and I have made great strides as we have worked with the group, and Reina has been great! She trains ME how to train and work consistently with my pup. We are working towards therapy certification, and I’m so glad we found Dog Training Elite. I also had my first observed therapy dog visit with Parker today. He is the best! Looking forward to a few more observed visits and then on to Therapy Dog Certification!

Jaxx and I had a great training session with carol today. She is a outstanding dog trainer that I would highly recommend Bill

Thanks so much Parker (and Carol) for your continued support of Roxy. So many benefits for her and me!

As always, we are so very pleased with Reina and Dog Training Elite.

Reina is the best. We've had Jojo, a purebred Biewer Terrier, for 1 1/2 years, and we tried several different training regiments. My wife kept joking that we "got a lemon". That all changed when we got Reina and Dog Training Elite. Jojo just turned 2 and after completing the program, Jojo is now the best behaved, attentive, smart companion we've ever had. We've had 5 dogs, at least one dog and sometimes 2, for the past 25 years. Reina really cares about her job and the animals and is a patient and confident trainer who gets the animals respect and attention. Jojo is always so happy to see her when she arrives for a class. I can't say enough the quality of the training, communication, and customer service they provide. We are very happy -- no lemons here!

We loved working with Reina and look forward to more sessions with her!!

Carol was so great in helping us understand the process and making a decision that was right for us.. She was very knowledgeable and professional! Thanks again!

Great job today. It was a hard one to learn but patience and perseverance got the job done!

Reina is an amazing dog trainer. What she's accomplished with my dog has truly been life changing.

Great info--easy to follow directions--enjoyed!!

Bolt has been through tough times recently! His trainer Reina is amazing! A couple months down the road, and Bolt is doing amazingly compared to how he was with his reactivity! I am very satisfied with the progress, and how it is obvious progress! He now can calm himself down when people come to our house, and his place command helps him tremendously with his anxiety. Reina and I finished at the dog park today! I never would’ve expected being able to take my boy there. He used to pull and bark towards everything, but today, Reina showed me exactly what I should do if Bolt focuses on dogs, and how to calm his inner crazy! I’ve personally been afraid to bring Bolt to the dog park, but Reina showed me Bolt CAN do it! I am scared but excited for his Mall trip in a couple weeks! I am ready to show everyone the growth my dog has experienced. Also, Bolt absolutely loves Reina! He gets excited when she is around, and loves her positive vibes! I am very happy I decided to go with Dog Training Elite! I highly recommend if you have a reactive dog(human, dog, children, etc)!!! Thank you for everything you’ve done to help Bolt work through his emotions!

The training was with Reina. She was great. Clear instruction, good with the dog, and firm with training. A wonderful experience! Amazed at how quickly the training is shaping behavior and how solid their methods.

Carol was very thorough with laying out everything they offer. She was very understanding and nice about everything

Dog Training Elite has been great to work with. They have taught me to have a better relationship with my rescue dog. My dog Wyatt was traumatized and abused. Dog training elite helped him gain confidence, and start to trust people again. He has gone from being reactive on the leash to walking nicely in my neighborhood. Best investment ever!

Carol is a phenomenal trainer! Her expertise and professionalism stand out, and she clearly has a natural ability to connect with dogs. She is also able to teach me as an owner practical and effective techniques for training and help me understand the bc “WHY” behind it. My dog Knox’s behavior, recall, and obedience has drastically improved since working with her…and in just a short amount of time! I highly recommend Carol and Dog Training Elite in Knoxville for anyone looking for a skilled, convenient and passionate dog trainer!

Cosima was awesome! Our dog Frankie learned so much! Cosima was always patient, soft-spoken and kind. We look forward to the group training and we know that Frankie will be the best-trained dog we’ve ever had!

Jennifer was great help in the office.

Jen and the office are super helpful! Thank you!
