I am so absolutely thrilled with Dog Training Elite! We adopted our pup from MADACC back in August, and quickly realized that he needed some obedience training to thrive. I did a lot of searching to find the right training facility, and even ended up being turned away by another organization prior to finding Dog Training Elite. I was told that our pup exhibited some "yellow flag" behaviors, and they were unable to train him. When I found Dog Training Elite, they assured me right away that our pup was absolutely trainable, and that we could get moving right away. I was relieved to say the least! With their expert help, I realized that my pup is so happy to please, and the "yellow flag" behaviors were simply the result of the organization, and their lack of professional trainers, and not my pup. He needed guidance, and the second he saw what we wanted from him, he was so easy to train! Mary met with with us, and introduced us to Katie and Paul, who started training with our pup right away. Talk about impressed...I was floored with the results on the first day! A lot of the training is about training the humans too, and Katie and Paul were patient, kind, and answered ALL of my numerous questions. I did the homework between sessions, and they were equally impressed with our pups results week over week. Our last session was done in a public place, to test our pups skills that he'd learned over 8 weeks and I could not be more happy or thrilled with the results! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dog Training Elite to anyone looking for obedience! They do so much more with service dogs, therapy dogs too. Look no further, sign up with DTE if you're looking for training for your special pup!
