Dog Training Elite Phoenix

​I hired Dog Training Elite to work with my Malinois/GSD mix, Sandy, and it was the best investment I could have made. Let’s be clear: this training isn’t cheap, but good things rarely are. For the level of expertise and the results I have received, the price is more than fair. ​We started with private sessions where Neal and Karen came directly to my home. They don’t cut corners—we spent time building a rock-solid foundation in my own environment first. In fact, we had to demonstrate that control to "earn" our invitation to the group obedience classes, and eventually the protection group. I respect that standard; they ensure every dog in the group is truly ready. ​The knowledge base here is incredible.

Their training techniques eventually lead to having to put the dog down. Sad. For clarity sake we are taught to never hit your dog. When we were all out front of our house and you had control of Blitz, he grabbed your hand and you PUNCHED him. Both my wife and I were shocked to see you do that. As a trainer I thought you would know better. Don't sugar coat it, you PUNCHED him.

Azure was our trainer. Our dog Chip was very stubborn and we couldn’t get him obey. This training enabled us to get him to pay attention and obey commands right away. It is a difference of night and day. We appreciate what she was able to do for him and us. Thank you so much!

Dog Training Elite was amazing in helping us with our stubborn puppy’s basic obedience training! Karen, Alexa, and Azure were patient, knowledgeable, and tailored their approach to fit Booker’s dramatic personality. Thanks to them, our once headstrong puppy is listening and is so much better behaved. He’s catching on quickly. We have a lot more work ahead but I highly recommend this team and the approach.

Elite has a very comprehensive training program. The commands are consistent and clear as to what is expected from your dog. There is a lot of commitment and practice that goes with the training, but so far I have seen immense improvement.
