Our Balanced Theory
We base our training around the "Classical Conditioning" model (a.k.a. "Pavlovian" or "respondent conditioning"). This includes developing conditioned or automatic reflexes to commands. In its simplest form (after proper conditioning), when the owner says "sit," the dog automatically sits without thinking about it. Our unique techniques ensure our program is a success no matter what behavior we encounter.

Our trainer Erin was absolutely amazing the last two weeks. I felt so comfortable dropping my baby boy off with her every morning. You can tell she truly cares about these animals. Every evening upon pickup she gave me a detailed description of what Scooby learned that day and how to continue his training at home. So worth the money. Love this place. Love Erin. Thankful to have a dog I can be more confident in. Thank you guys.— Mia Martinez

Very happy with our experience here. We did the two week in house package. The trainer Erin was amazing to work with and answered all of our questions. We completed the course two weeks ago and our dog continues to obey commands like a rock star.— Darian Everett

Dog Training Elite is wonderful. My at-home training was invaluable. It helped my dog understand and know what was allowed and what wasn’t and why. The group training has been great. It has taught Gladys social skills and how to be a good dog in various, and sometimes, uncomfortable situations. It has been worth every dollar. Highly recommend.— Jeri Rasmussen

This group of people are absolute amazing. They are helping me train my Luger to be my brace and mobility service dog. Working with "The Malinois Foundation". Each and every one of the people that are with Dog Training Elite at this location and at every other location I have been with are wonderful. Both in knowledge and skill sets to train anything you could ask for. If one trainer does not have the knowledge they reach out to someone in the group, who does so they can grow as a trainer and be successful. I want to say thank you to Jeff who runs most of their group classes. He has done amazing. To Jess and her service dog Rider. They have been amazing in helping me understand what it means to have a service dog and Jess's help with task training. Watching her grow as a trainer as well, has been amazing. To there front desk person KC. Always present and on point with anything that you need. I could mention everyone else as well. They are all great. 12 out of 10 would recommend. Your dogs could not be in better hands.— Jarred Asher

We have been so incredibly impressed with DTE!! I was very new to dog ownership and needing a service dog for my little girl. I called around and everyone seemed so mean and didn't seem to know what they were doing as it related to our particular situation. Jeff was awesome - just so awesome and patient teaching my 8 year old how to be a doggo handler. Our husky is 180 from when we got him and he does his work beautifully. Use DTE - it's the best!— Cate Murphy

I’ve tried different training methods and companies but Dog elite is by far the best one with amazing results on my black lab. They are always there to resolve any doubts you have about what better for your pup. It’s been great for me too I learned that consistency is the key. 100% recommended. I got here cause I friend recommended it and now I’m recommending it to all my folks— Rosmery Ceferino

I absolutely love Elite. Ash has grown exponentially since he attended Elite Training. The trainers are awesome and very personable and not in it just because it's a "job", but to love on the dogs and their growth.— Jenni Yang

We seriously are so happy we found dog training elite. The staff is so friendly, easy to work with and beyond knowledgeable. They have already made such amazing progress with our dog I cant wait to see what she can do when they are done! They are so patient and include my 2 year old in training her service dog & that means the world to us! Plus Nana loves playing with the other dogs. They have already watched nana over night for us twice and I couldnt be happier. I love that you can tell they honestly care about what they do and loves the dogs. Jess has been so helpful with learning about diabetic alert dogs and so helpful with not only nana but our daughter too. 10/10 recommendations from us!— Maddelynn Eliason

I have a very aggressive dog and looked into many different dog training places before deciding to go with Dog Training Elite. Evan came to my home to do a free evaluation and impressed me and that's what made me decide to go with this company. Jeff was the trainer that we worked with the most. He was great with our dog Tucker. I now have a better understanding of a dog's behavior. In the past, I was embarrassed and nervous to have Tucker out in public and am now more comfortable. I love that we get 8 months of group classes after the initial one-on-one trainings. I would highly recommend Dog Training Elite.— Amy Tran

Really wonderful staff. Had a wonderful boarding experience with Kaycee and will use again and again anytime we leave town. My dog was happy and came back even better than I left him !— Alexia Koeppel

I love Dog Training Elite SLC - Jeff & Evan did an amazing job with our in home training. My dog was a monster because his previous owner did not train him. 4.5 months into his training he is now Pyrfect - we take him camping and he is off leash the entire time. I can’t thank everyone enough at DTE for helping Tatonka and I reach this level of happiness. It’s worth all the time and money invested.— Lisa Jacobson

I started off doing puppy classes with Jess and then did some obedience with Erin and Jake. Kaycee and Oakley has been great scheduling and coordinating my times and is always prompt. I do group classes now with Jeff which have been great as well. Overall if you're looking for a place where the handlers know what they're doing and you're willing to put the time in to work on your dog, you cant find a better place to get some real training for you and your pup— Rookie Allen
