    I cannot recommend DTE enough. They’ve been absolutely amazing working with my dog, Ozzy. He’s not even finished with his training yet, but he’s already a completely different dog. The improvement in his manners, obedience, and overall behavior has been incredible to see. What I appreciate most is their honesty and integrity. They don’t try to sell you more than you need—they recommend the training packages that truly fit you and your dog, nothing more and nothing less. That kind of transparency is rare and really speaks to their professionalism. Ozzy is training to become a service dog, and the foundation they’re helping build is already making a huge difference. I’m so glad they were the first trainers I reached out to. If you want to better your dog while also becoming a better dog owner yourself, I would highly recommend them.

    Colin was awesome and easy to work with which was very refreshing! Our bernadoodle Bodhi had some behavioral issues that Colin helped correct in a short time period and she even came Out with a few new tricks!! I would highly recommend Colin to dog owners with any training needs!

    We’ve had a great experience! David and Kristen helped me gain the confidence needed to help my rescue dog thrive! The private lessons were life savers. My dog is much happier, relaxed and more obedient. I’m thankful I invested in training that will make my dog successful for years to come.

    Kristin and David were incredible with training Annie. We had such a great experience and she picked up their commands so fast. I learned so much from them . I can't thank Dog Training Elite enough for everything they taught us both. I highly recommend them.

    I have had the most amazing experience with Dog Training Elite. We have trained with Kristen and her husband David as well as Paul for service dog training! They are very knowledgeable, kind, light hearted people and we couldn’t have completed this journey without them! Highly recommend!

    We have gone through puppy, obedience, and now service dog training with Dog Training Elite in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They are amazing to work with, extremely helpful, and very knowledgeable! I love that they do in-home training, and group classes in public places! Having both formats has been a game changer!

    I adopted my dog from the shelter, and took her to the 5 day board and train program. I was a little skeptical about breaking up the days, but I have to admit I was thoroughly impressed with their training plan. It set my dog up for success outside of the classes. 10/10 highly recommended.

    We LOVE Dog Training Elite!! My husband and I adopted a German shepherd/Great Pyrenees when he was 4 months old, and enrolled him in Dog Training Elite’s obedience/therapy training when he was 2 years old with the intention of him becoming a therapy dog. Our training started around May of 2025, he passed obedience training that Summer, and then began work on his therapy training. He passed in October and has been working as the therapy dog at an elementary school since! Elite provides group training which is incredible and extremely instrumental in his success.

    Hands down, this was a wonderful experience. The team is incredibly professional, caring, and supportive. The level of support offered while working with Dog Training Elite was amazing. Anytime I had a question during training, I could reach out and receive a timely response. They were also very accommodating with my busy and demanding schedule, which made the entire process much easier. I have already recommended them several times and will continue to do so. Our service dog receives so much praise when we are out in public. While he is naturally a great dog, his success truly started with their training. In fact, another trainer from a different company was so impressed by his age ( only 8months old) and how well he was trained that he asked who had done the training. That alone speaks volumes. Thank you again for everything you have done for us and for helping train such an amazing service dog for my husband. We are incredibly grateful.

    Laydon is an incredible trainer! Before we started working together, I was worried my puppy would end up running the show and basically telling me what to do. Laydon completely changed that experience. Through positive reinforcement training, she taught me how to redirect my puppy in the best ways and build good habits. Now my puppy listens when I ask him to sit, place, and down—and he even stays! Laydon was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the process. I honestly don’t think I would have enjoyed my experience at DTE nearly as much without Laydon guidance. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares about both you and your dog, I can’t recommend Laydon enough.

    Austin did a great job coaching. He conti loudly provided me with clear guidance and good tips. I hope we get him again.

    We love DTE Springfield. My wife and I work from home. We have meetings, calls, etc. DTE has made it possible for our 6 month old puppy stay in place in a down position for several hours instead of her being in a crate because she is causing mayhem, She remains quiet and gets her naps in until we are ready to “party.” We’ve had several outings and she continues to gain confidence everyday. I look forward to continuing her training with DTE

    We have a 7 year old bulldog who had never been trained before. She was getting aggressive towards my one year old who had just started walking and moving around. Dog Training Elite completely changed her around through their training. The people who say old dogs cannot learn new tricks are wrong. I cannot thank Josh and his team enough!
