Reactive Dog Training in Worcester, MA

Fear and reactivity in dogs can lead to stress and aggression, making daily life difficult for you and your dog. The Dog Training Elite team works to desensitize dogs to their triggers through controlled exposure and consistent training.

Our fearful and reactive dog training in Worcester, MA is customized to meet your dog’s needs, helping them become more relaxed in environments that previously triggered anxiety or aggression. By focusing on gradual exposure and rewarding calm behavior, we help your dog gain the skills they need to handle stress more effectively.

In addition to desensitization, we provide tools and techniques for you to manage your dog’s reactive behavior issues at home. This includes strategies for handling sudden triggers, electronic collar training, and creating a more predictable routine that minimizes anxiety.

    What a fun week. This week was "down" which seems highly acheivable and can be added with other commands. Kurtis answered every question and was knowledgeable with canine behavior; mentioned situations we didnt even think of.

    We were referred to Dog Training Elite by a friend who had a great experience with them. Our dog struggled with reactivity toward men, and after trying multiple training options with no success, we were feeling stressed and discouraged. Matt worked with us over three sessions and made remarkable progress with our dog. He was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced with reactive dogs. He provided practical guidance not only for training our dog, but also for helping the people around him create a calmer, safer environment and prevent bite incidents. His balanced approach combined positive reinforcement with E-collar redirection, and we’re incredibly grateful for his help.

    Today, February 3rd was my first Elite Dog Training visit. There was 2 trainors that came, Kayla and Kristin. During the 90 plus minutes they were here was terrific. Their easy personalities made things so much easier to understand about how program works and the hands on approach used for my puppy’s first lesson was great. They were very thorough and quite knowledgeable. If my lessons from here on in are as good as today’s’ was than I will be so delighted that I chose Elite Dog Training. If Kayla and Kristen could possibly come back when possible that would e even better. Thank you Nancy Starbird

    Marshall has helped us so much with our 7 month old amstaff Achilles. He knows so much about the breed and our boy is coming along nicely because of Marshall’s knowledge and expertise. We have learned so much and are so grateful for his help. We are going to have a well trained pitty after all! Thank you Marshall!

    We’re about halfway through our 1:1 training sessions and I couldn’t be happier with our experience so far. Laydon and Kristen have both been absolutely wonderful — kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. The progress my pup, Pepper, has already made has blown me away, and I can truly see the difference in her behavior and confidence. Every session is very productive and also a lot of fun, which makes the whole process so enjoyable. They explain things clearly, are patient, and genuinely care about both the dogs and their owners. I’m really looking forward to completing the rest of our 1:1 sessions and starting group sessions soon. I would highly recommend Laydon and Kristen at Dog Training Elite to anyone looking for excellent dog trainers!

    Dog Training Elite has been an incredible experience for us. Our trainer, Marshall, is outstanding—not only in training our dog Abby, but also in guiding us as owners. In just a month, we’ve seen a substantial difference in Abby’s behavior and confidence. I highly recommend Dog Training Elite and Marshall to anyone looking for effective, supportive training.
