Elite Obedience Training

We decided to have our 5 and a half month old GSD complete 1 month of board and train with Kenzie. She is very knowledgeable and has a tremendous skill set! Our main focus was obedience and off leach training. It was definitely a long month to be away from our puppy but it was worth it. Kenzie set our GSD up for success and is transitioning very well! I would recommend This company a thousand times!

We worked with Shanna in Des Moines, Iowa. This experience once again is proof that paying a professional to do their job matters. Shanna was an absolute joy to work with. From our free consultation to signing up, dropping off and picking up - every single part of the experience was driven by her vision for excellence and making her clients feel comfortable. If you are concerned about leaving your dog with someone you don’t know (we all are), that concern will quickly vanish. These folks will treat your dog like their own. Their professional and proven training has helped our dog Louie overcome behavioral obstacles we wouldn’t have been able to address. In two weeks of training and returning to our home, he’s stopped barking, he listens and he’s become an even better dog. This is also not

Kenzie is nothing short of life changing. We were at the point of having to make a heartbreaking decision to re-home our German shepherd, Max. He had grown into an unmanageable adolescent male GSD: extremely reactive while on leash toward strangers and other dogs, abhorrent behavior while at the vet’s office, and uncontrollable in our home when any guests came to visit. It’s not that he wasn’t without basic obedience training: he would mind us at home when it was ONLY us. But we were slowly having to shrink down our lives into being homebodies who had to cater to our dog’s misbehavior. It just wasn’t sustainable anymore. In a last ditch effort, we reached out to Kenzie. The first thing I appreciated was her humanness and her honesty. She sounded optimistic about being able to work with M

Kenzie is beyond amazing in what she’s able to accomplish in two weeks. We are repeat customers. We just brought home our 6 month chocolate female lab from her 2 week board & train. Oakley is the bestest girl and it is such a relief to have her roaming the house with her brother and not chase cats. She went for basic obedience and came home able to be off leash with excellent recall, proper greeting manners, and plethora of knowledge for obedience. Do not hesitate to send your loved fur babies to Kenzie! After a year follow up with our other lab he remembered her and loved seeing her cementing our decision to send our newest fur baby. Best decision you could make!

Elite Obedience is phenomenal! My 6-month-old pup completed a 4-week board and train program at the Kansas location with Kenzie. During that time, she learned household manners, basic obedience, and the foundations of competition behaviors. I'll be the first to admit my pup is quite nutty, but Kenzie was thoughtful about finding techniques that worked for her. It was clear in our handoff lesson that Kenzie had earned both my pup's love and respect. In addition to the training itself, Kenzie went above and beyond to keep my pup happy and healthy during her stay—this included posting her ears (iykyk it's no small task), dremeling her nails, and maintaining her raw diet. Once Kenzie worked her magic on my pup, she did a fantastic job training me! We had a thorough handoff lesson during which
