Group Sessions

Dog Training Elite Southwest Florida offers small dog training classes after obedience training is completed and only once a puppy is fully immunized. Dog obedience classes are held on a consistent basis and are included in most packages. Our dog obedience training classes are designed to place yourself and your dog in public places (surrounded by other dogs, people, smells, and sounds), so that you can train your dog to obey you... regardless of the many distractions screaming for their attention!

    Today My dog Nova and I did our Public Access Test. Our trainer Renee Juliano a highly trained Dog Handler with Dog Training Elite. This test is to ensure that dogs that have public access are stable. The Bottom Line of this test is that Nova demonstrates she is safe to be in public and that I demonstrates I has control of Nova at all times. Our final Result was "Pass." Renee is a valuable quality skill in her trade nothing but the best.

    We just completed the Silver Leash program with our trainer, Blaize, and the transformation has been incredible. Blaize didn't just train my dog; she trained me. She gave me the tools, techniques and the psycological understanding I need to properly communicate with her and manage her. She is behaving like a different dog now that I know how to work with her. I also want to specifically thank the owner, Denise, who has gone above and beyond. If you need serious, effective training, Dog Training Elite is the absolute best.
