While it is a common practice to adopt retired police or military dogs, many pet owners are unaware of the extra attention these K9s need. These dogs are not considered dangerous, but they may face issues like anxiety and depression. With the right K9 training in Las Vegas, however, these retired animals can become loyal and loving pets.
Typically, K9 dogs serve for 7 to 8 years and then are "retired" and allowed to live with their original handler as a family pet or can be adopted by a member of the general public. Previous military or police dogs are highly intelligent and vigorously trained to perform specific tasks. The stress of these jobs can leave a retired K9 with issues of aggression, anxiety, and PTSD. Often times, all that is needed is a loving relationship with a new family for the retired K9 to enjoy his remaining years. Adopting one of these dogs is a great way to support these animals that work so hard to protect our local communities.

Our Balanced Theory
We base our training around the "Classical Conditioning" model (a.k.a. "Pavlovian" or "respondent conditioning"). This includes developing conditioned or automatic reflexes to commands. In its simplest form (after proper conditioning), when the owner says "sit," the dog automatically sits without thinking about it. Our unique techniques ensure our program is a success no matter what behavior we encounter.

Nick and Bry with DTE we’re so wonderful with our dog Apollo. He is a high energy dog that required much more training than we could offer and they were able to provide that. They were professional, polite and took care with both us and our dog to ensure we felt comfortable and confident with their training. Thank you so much! Would highly recommend them to anyone!— Megan

Excellent company! Nick helped train our puppy to do basic commands. He taught my entire family (and puppy) to be patient and consistent. It worked! We’ve hired him again to teach more advanced skills. Nick has been very flexible with our busy schedules. I highly recommend this company.— Cathy Smith

Dog Training Elite + the owners Nick and Bryanna were AMAZING. My dogs used to misbehave and would not listen to us well and we had just about had it… we found DTE through word of mouth and couldn’t be happier with the tips & tricks they taught our pups. Thank you guys! Would highly recommend to anyone with a furry companion!— Makaela Bamonti
