    Meggie was great! She listened empathetically to my concerns about training my corgi menace, and we came up with a plan together. Most dog trainers I have worked with in the past bulldozed through a training program without truly trying to understand my dog or what he needs. I felt heard and seen, and I am excited to keep up with the training so my dog can live his happiest, healthiest life! :) Thanks, Meggie ❤️

    Dog Training Elite has truly changed our lives! From our very first phone call to our in-home sessions and group classes, everyone has been professional, knowledgeable, and amazing to work with. Meg and Jeff genuinely love what they do, and it absolutely shows! They complement each other so well and make an incredible team. We have loved every part of our experience with Dog Training Elite and couldn’t be happier with the progress and success our dog has had. We are so grateful for all of their help and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog training!

    Today was my fourth protective training session with Jeff. It is amazing to see what he does…. Rainey has learned so much and he is just incredible with her. I cannot believe the progress she has made in such a short time. If you are looking for the best dog trainer in SLC…he is your guy!!!!!

    We've had such a great experience with Dog Training Elite! The trainers have all been wonderful to work with. We've worked with Meggie, Jeff, and Charlie, and they've all been amazing, professional, and so helpful with training our dogs. Thank you!

    Loved our experience for puppy training! Charlie was our trainer and I cannot recommend her enough. We were very hesitant if this program would actually work and Charlie did such an amazing job with our puppy! She was so throughout in explaining everything she taught her each day and made sure every day at pick she answered all our questions (which was a lot). She is very knowledgeable with dog training. ASK FOR CHARLIE! You will be so happy! Our only complaint is from our puppy because she looked forward to going to camp everyday and misses seeing Charlie.

    We were having quite a tough time managing our girl Wednesday before we found dog training elite. She was very reactive on leash, had a habit of jumping fences and we had to make major adjustments to the way we lived our lives just to keep her and others safe. We’re only halfway through the program and the difference is already night and day. Walks are actually enjoyable now, her escape artist tendencies have stopped, and we have real peace of mind when we take her anywhere with us. It sounds dramatic but it genuinely has been life-changing. Yes, the price can be daunting at first, but it has been well worth it. Jeff and Meggie are wonderful people who are damn good at their jobs! Cannot recommend them enough!

    Jeff and Meggie have been so wonderful with my poodle Graham! He is on his 4th out of 5 one-on-one lessons and is making incredible progress. From a dog that was biting people and dogs, he is a completely new guy. Thank you to this wonderful place!!!
