The best time to start training your Goldendoodle is from day one! If you bring your new four-legged family member home as a puppy, we recommend you start Salt Lake City goldendoodle puppy training as soon as possible. Puppies are eager to learn and please, so starting commands from a young age will build a firm foundation for more training as they grow.

We offer training programs for puppies as young as eight weeks. But don't worry if you start training with your Goldendoodle later in life. Our tried–and–true Dog Training Elite training programs work for dogs of any age.

    Meggie is a wonderful trainer! She helped train our golden retriever puppy. She is affectionate and firm while training, and our puppy not only loved Meggie but listened to her. I would recommend Dog Training Elite to anyone!

    Jeff and I took Dexter my 115 lbs 1 year old European Doberman to Scheels today. Dexter is doing obedience training and working on his KGS. Working on crowds and distractions. Jeff is an amazing trainer, Dexter did so great today, I’m very proud of him. Dexter is being trained as my service dog. Thanks Jeff as always, you’re amazing!!!

    We were so impressed with our first meeting with Jeff. He analyzed our dogs and was very honest with his recommendations. He gave us hope that there is a solution to assist with some bad behaviors the dogs have developed but didn’t sugarcoat the truth in telling us to be exactly where we want the dogs behavior to be when around others (dogs people they don’t discriminate) we’re about a year out of daily corrections and praises. I was excited to know that we can correct the behavior. He was very direct in the fact that the owner is as much involved as the dog and trainer. The owner will also be given homework. I was so impressed that before we start our second lesson, we are to show the trainer where the dogs have come over that week. I love that. He was also very clear that every dog has their own personality and what works for one dog doesn’t always work for the one sitting right next to him or her. I agreed with this philosophy, 100% There are no bad dogs just bad trainers dog training elite is the (sorry for the pun,) elite in the dog training world. If you want a training facility that trains you as much as the dogs this is the trainer for you.

    We had a fantastic experience with Dog Training Elite. Jeff was clearly very knowledgeable and confident with dogs, and even though this was just a meet-and-greet, he took the time to show us exactly what we could expect from training. He was amazing with our young, hyper Dalmatian—calm, patient, and engaging—which immediately put us at ease. It was obvious he understands dog behavior and knows how to work with high-energy breeds. We left feeling excited and confident about the training process. Highly recommend Dog Training Elite and Jeff!

    Jeff was great with our dog Sera, she loved him and his dog. We are really excited to start training with him. Had our 3rd lesson with Meggie and it was very good she have us great advice. Meggie and Happy were awesome to work with and she is very positive. Finally went to a puppy socialization class with Jeff. It was really good for my puppy and really showed me what I still need to work on. Seraphina did really well and I was super pleased. I definitely have my work cut out for me though cause she could careless about treats. She just wants to play. She was definitely ready for bed last night and she's still tired this morning..LOL Jeff was out today and he was excellent with Seraphina. She is a very stubborn alpha puppy and he really helped me to understand how to handle her stubborn side. She is already listening better, but i am working on being the alpha in or relationship. I had to tie her to my desk cause I told her to stay and she kept leaving. Eventually I was able to untie her and she stayed and fell asleep 😴 💤 We all went to Lowes with Meggie and had a great class working on sit for duration and not breaking with distractions. Seraphina loves running through the big blue flatbed carts. It was very fun. Thank you Meggie.

    McCall (and everyone else at DTE) was absolutely incredible—it truly felt like she treated Gunner like her own!! She took our dog—a well-known trash goblin—to a certified good boy. Gunner is seriously the most well-behaved and obedient boy now! He LOVED going every morning, and would even start whining in the car as soon as we turned into the parking lot! We’re excited to start the group classes to keep up on Gunner’s training!

    Thanks to the Jeff and Yaga team for teaching Brady and I some new behaviors. We appreciate you so much for helping US become a better team. I highly recommend Jeff and all the trainers at Dog Training Elite.

    Wow, Jeff arrived and quickly put our dog Delilah at ease. She’s always so happy to see him. Today we learned the Heal command. She did extremely well even with distractions like Jeff’s dog walking with us; small killer dog barking at us; and motorcycles going by. We highly recommend the Elite Dog Trainers to all wanting training for themselves and their dogs. Mary and Curtis.

    We had a fantastic experience taking two dogs through the program. McCall was an outstanding trainer and made great progress with both our adult dog and our puppy. We are really looking forward to sending our other two doggos through the program soon!

Begin with Simple Commands

Read More
Read Less

The best way to start training—whether as a puppy or a grown dog—is with simple commands. Starting with simple and easy–to–understand commands will build confidence and trust with your dog. This is essential with a sensitive dog like a goldendoodle. We suggest starting with commands like “sit,” “heel,” “down,” and “come” Once you and your pup have these commands down, it will be easier for both of you to move on to more complex and fun commands.

Work on Eliminating Unwanted Behaviors

Read More

Although Goldendoodles have many desirable traits, a few undesirable behaviors are associated with them. The behaviors that we often see are trouble with house training, jumping, and barking. Once you have developed a good training foundation with simple commands, you can start working on eliminating unwanted behaviors.

The trainers at Dog Training Elite Salt Lake City can work with you and your Goldendoodle to solve specific behavioral problems. Using our balanced training theory, we can eliminate unwanted behavior.

More Training Tips!

Goldendoodle Breed Training

Here are some additional tips you can follow when training you goldendoodle puppy:

Goldendoodles are very interactive and energetic animals, so socializing them with other dogs is essential to ensuring they are well behaved. Starting socialization at a young age is beneficial, but it can be accomplished at any age. Dog Training Elite offers group obedience classes, which are a great way to continue Goldendoodle dog training while socializing your dog in a safe environment.
Most goldendoodles are relatively easy to train, but remaining consistent is essential. When training any dog, you must show your dog that you expect a specific behavior to happen every time. In return, show your dog that you will be consistent with teaching and responding to incorrect behaviors. Consistency during your goldendoodle dog training will help your pup learn correct behavior quickly.

One of the most important things to remember when training your Goldendoodle is to be patient. Training a puppy or teaching an older dog new commands can be challenging and take some time. Have patience with your dog and yourself, and you will be successful!
