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.

We have been seeing so much improvement in our dogs since working with David and Kristen. Our Wire Fox Terriers were known for bolting, their recall now is amazing. We would highly recommend them with you and your dogs training. They are in a “good place”.— John Eriksson

Kristin and David are both professional and likable. I was looking for a good dog trainer who would guide me through the process of training a service dog for my special needs son. Not only did DTE provide a structured program, but they made it easy to understand, and have walked me through each step. From eliminating undesirable behaviors to training a dog who will be accepted in any (public) venue, they will definitely help you accomplish your goals.— Theresa Castaneda

Elite Dog Training has been a wonderful experience for us. David came out to the house and explained the program well. There was no pressure and no hidden costs. Kristen has been coming out to work with the family . She is patient, funny, and loves our big baby boy almost as much as we do! She answers all of our questions and takes her time demonstrating and helping us practice new techniques. The homework is very explicit which makes it easy to follow. I can't say enough good things about this program!— Kim Walker

David and Kristen are amazing individuals! These two are extremely professional. They went above and beyond to help us connect with our dog in ways I didn’t think possible. I’m amazed at the dedication they have for dogs and their owners! Not only do they provide personalized training tailored to your schedule, but offer continuous group classes to reinforce the positive behaviors your dog learns from his training. Thanks to them we are able to take our dog anywhere with confidence knowing he will be attentive and responsive to his commands.— Grant S

Dog Training Elite has really helped me and my dog connect on another level. She loves the structure that the training provides and is excited for the positive reinforcement she gets for doing what she’s asked. She is so much better at not freaking out when people come to our door and I love that she goes on walks with me now instead of dragging me on a walk. Thanks DTE! Well worth the investment.— Nicole Evans
