Dog Training Elite San Antonio Facility

“Max just graduated from his in home training with Dog Training Elite and I can’t say enough great things about the process! We adopted him from a rescue about 6 months ago and he was extremely anxious and a little unruly. Adakais has been amazing. Max is now much more confident and knows all of his commands . The ability to learn the training techniques from Adakais each week and then work on them one on one with Max has been such a rewarding experience. We look forward to continuing to work with DTE by attending the group classes.”

“There are so many great things about Dog Training Elite. I’ll start with their level of professionalism. From the first introduction Tammy explained their training opportunities and payment options. Whitley used her own dog to show me some things the team would be able to teach my dog to support my Post Traumatic Stress and anxiety. The team is always kind and they listen to my needs as a handler. My standard poodle, Brody, completed puppy camp and is currently in big dog camp for service. After puppy camp there were follow up classes in our home at which time we got some much needed refresher training. Terrence and Adakais arrived promptly and were very knowledgeable. Alli is his classroom trainer (for puppy camp and big dog camp) and she is amazing. She answers my questions and supports me as a handler with any areas that I need additional assistance. She is always watching me with Brody when I’m there and I love that she corrects me when she sees me do something wrong. It keeps me on point and I am always learning from her. Brody learned some great things in his first week of big dog camp. He even got a compliment from one of my co-workers who noticed his behavior had improved since he saw him a week ago. The end of day report cards are wonderful. It gives me something to reference if I am unsure about something Brody was taught throughout his training. One of the things I appreciate most is the quick response I get from any messages I send them. You cannot go wrong with Dog Training Elite. They are a professional group of people who want to see you and your dog be successful. I am looking forward to a lifelong relationship with this staff.”

“Most amazing experience I have ever had. I was very nervous about bringing my tiny 1.5 lb baby to be trained. I had a sit down with Tammy and she went through the process with me. Had me bring my baby with me and she gave me a tour. From day one it was amazing. Poppy started puppy camp the next Monday and they worked with me on my work schedule. I was more nervous than my puppy. After the first day my little dog was so happy to go. Every time I drove up she knew. She got so excited she would rush through the doors and run right to the trainers. She has her favorites of course. But, she was just so happy to be there. Not only was she learning and playing. But everyday they made video of what she was learning and I would take the video and practice at home what she was learning there. If I had questions I could ask Ally her trainer anything and she was amazing to answer all my questions. When Puppy camp ended we moved on to more advanced training. We had to wait for a little bit for her little puppy brain to grow. During that time the trainers came to us. We had Kai and he was absolutely the best. Full of knowledge and very patient and professional like Ally. Poppy just loved him. Working with him outside of the training facility was easy and very rewarding for both myself and Poppy. He even help us with boundaries within the house. When it was time to start the more Advanced training. We had Ally again. Poppy learned so much. She became more confident and so did I. If I stumbled with anything, Ally guided me back on track and always let me know that I can ask for help at anytime. She never made me feel rushed through any of it. Then of course there are the videos they use to help you through the training of your dog. I know this review is long. I did see some of the other reviews posted that were negative and if you know these people and how they love their dogs and yours. You would understand that what was said was taken out of context. One of the service dog training methods is for your dog to be in place. Poppy knowing this skill means I can handle my medical needs and know she is out of harms way and or not getting her self into trouble. So when you walk into the facility you might see a dog on a bed off the ground against the wall sitting. They are not stuck in a cage. They are out in the open. But they are in what is called place. It is a very important skill. I am very blessed Poppy was taught this. It has come in handy in so many situations. Not only at home. But also out at a hospital where she needs to be safe out of the way. If you’re looking for a place that loves your dog, that will be there to answer your questions, to guide you and your dog through the journey you choose. This is the place. These are the people. I trust my little Poppy 110% with all of them.”
