We had a great experience with Dog training Elite for our rescue dog. He was recently rescued and has trouble with other dogs. And the team was fantastic at understanding his individual triggers and making a tailored training regiment with care. They show a lot of care and love with their work, and were always great at factoring in our feedback on areas our dog was still struggling. They were very collaborative and effective and we’ve seen strong results with our pup. Highest praise to our trainer Dominique who was fantastic. Highly recommend this service for your dog!

We are incredibly happy with the training we received from Dog Training Elite Los Angeles. Humphrey, our newly-adopted senior dog, was being aggressive toward, and biting certain people. We were at a loss as the situation felt uncontrollable. Our trainer, Clayton, was patient, kind, and firm, giving me insight, guidance, and, more importantly, confidence as an owner and trainer. Humphrey, the trained dog, now listens and defers to me in such a powerful way, making our bond as human and canine incredibly strong. We love our Humphrey so much, and we now have the confidence, eagerness, and willingness to move forward introducing him to our family, friends, and neighbors. We can highly recommend Dog Training Elite Los Angeles if you are struggling with a dog at home.

Dominique is wonderful! Belle has learned so much in these past few weeks. She is doing so well not only Belle but, I have learned a lot. I highly recommend Dominique as a trainer. She has a lot of in-point, patience and extremely helpful. I especially like the one on one training. I am very happy with Dog Training Elite and Dominique. Thank you!

Teddy has learned and improved so much in the time he’s spent service training with DTE. Marcos is excellent! He’s incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. I couldn’t recommend anyone more.

Very informative, I learned a lot to my benefit do will make much good use for the future. she was very patient with me but a very good teacher

Dominique guided my dog through the training and certification process with ease. She was very patient with my dog (and me), gave me easy/practical homework to practice each week, and tailored the full 8-week program specifically to my dog’s needs, temperament, and goals. My dog has a lot of energy and can be quite reactive, so I initially worried that certification might be a challenge but that fear quickly evaporated after the 1st session. My dog has a lot of energy and can be quite reactive, so I initially worried that certification might be a challenge but that fear quickly evaporated after the 1st session. Then after the first 6 sessions, I had to take an unexpected two-month break but they were incredibly understanding. There was a little regression when I came back (I definitely could have definitely been better about my dog’s training during that time off) and my dog needed a little extra work, so they gave me an extra session at no charge. They met me wherever training made the most sense – my house, the dog park, even the airport – so we could practice in real-world environments that actually mattered for my dog’s behavior and certification. The results speak for themselves as my dog is now certified, and I feel far more confident handling her. Our (my and my dog’s) communication and relationship have improved tremendously, and we’re both happier because of it. You can tell that Dominique and the Dog Training Elite team genuinely care about both the dogs and their owners. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective, and truly customized training.

INCREDIBLE experience! Dominique at Dog training elite was so professional and thorough . She had both my boys following instructions well. She deserves an A++++ couldn’t recommend a better trainer.

My six month old puppy had challenges with being anxious and not very trusting of her surroundings. It took quite a bit of coaxing and many hours of training and practice but eventually she was finally able to assimilate into situations where she could be more confident. I am pleased with her behavior now. We do need to do some occasional refresher training to help her stay on track. Overall, the training we received from our trainer, Clayton was consistent and top-notch.

Dominique is great!! She’s friendly and knowledgeable and always makes us feel comfortable even when we’re struggling! We really have appreciated her approach, patience and care.

Dominique trained Pepa, our Border Collie puppy, over the past two months, and the improvement we’ve seen has been remarkable. Pepa has gained much more self-control, and thanks to Dominique we’ve learned so many practical tools and strategies to better understand her and communicate with her. She’s kind, patient, and truly cares. We honestly couldn’t recommend her more. We’re very attached to Dominique… and Pepa absolutely adores her too.

Dog Training Elite is definitely a 5+ star recommendation! Everything is very well organized right from the start. Our trainer (Clayton) was absolutely amazing and extremely professional. We are very experienced dog owners, but we learned new things (as it should be) and we are thrilled how our former stray dog, Ares, became a very well trained service dog. Again, great experience and without any doubt a top dog training organization.

Dog Training Elite LA was awesome! Clayton was absolutely incredible to work with throughout our 13-week service dog training program. We had the opportunity to work with him consistently each session, and that made such a huge difference. He was extremely patient, knowledgeable, and accommodating, always taking the time to explain what we were working on and why. The results are amazing—our dog is only 11 months old and is already incredibly compliant, obedient, and confident thanks to Clayton’s guidance. We truly couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who genuinely cares and knows what they’re doing. Thank you Clayton and Dog Training Elite!

I’ve had a great experience training my puppy Lilikoi with dog Training Elite Los Angeles. We’ve been working with trainer Dominique, and over 7 sessions my puppy has learned commands sit, down, place, crate, come, gentle, and many more. I’ve also seen a huge improvement with pulling on walks, and my now 6 month old puppy is already skilled at staying calm in crowded places as people and dogs walk by when I command her to. Dominique has done an amazing job teaching me how to teach my pup—all of the little details about my own body language and reward timing that matter so much in successful puppy training. I’ll be practicing what Dominique has taught us over the next couple of months and plan to come back to LA next summer just to work with Dog Training Elite again on my dog’s service dog training.

Dominique was absolutely PHENOMENAL! She was super knowledgeable, knew how to work with “problem areas” and did a great job training ME TOO! Hah! She was able to answer any questions, guide me in how to get my puppy to do things I needed/wanted him to do. My puppy could not have loved her more. I was VERY happy with my sessions with Dominique! 100% recommend

Training with Dominique was truly a transformative experience for my dog. He went from an out of control puppy to a more mature well adjusted dog who can calmly walk through a crowd of people. I definitely recommend!

Started with a dog that was all over the place! NOW he's calmer and the commands learned helps keep him this way!

Excellent Experience with Clayton. We had a Belgian Shepherd/German Shepherd Mix with all of the behavioral issues they come with. After going through the program with Clayton it's like we have a different dog, improved in every way.

We were recommended this service through a friend and were lucky to do 8 sessions with Clayton. Our rescue dog was an anxious, reactive mess when the training started and has blossomed into a more confident dog. We found Clayton to be incredibly knowledgable with any questions we had. He was patient with our girl as she took multiple sessions to warm up to him. In our case, our dog was a recent rescue and she had some health issues, unrelated to the training, develop during the eight weeks. Not only was the team at Dog Training Elite very flexible and understanding of needing to reschedule here and there; but also, Clayton adapted his training style to her ongoing needs. We couldn't be more pleased with our decision to begin training with Dog Training Elite and would recommend them to anyone looking for dog training! Our dog is a much more relaxed and confident dog and completely trusts us as her leaders. We will continue to practice what we've learned and plan to attend some of the group classes as well! Thank you Clayton!

I recently completed 8 training sessions with Clayton for my dog, Kobe (Rhodesian Ridgeback), and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Clayton was always on time, professional, and incredibly patient — not just with Kobe, but also with my two young boys who constantly wanted to be part of the training. Kobe learned so many new skills, including sit, down, and come, and we also worked on agility to help build his confidence. I’ve already seen huge improvement, and Kobe keeps getting better every week. I highly recommend Clayton and Dog Training Elite to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated trainer.

I got a puppy and wanted to get him trained professionally as I had no idea how and wanted to do it right. Clayton was great and he helped my pup, percy, become a better obedient dog. I learned a lot as training your pup is also training yourself how to reinforce what you learn too. I highly recommend this program.
