About Canine Training Services

My name is Doctor Elliott Briggs. I started this home-based company to do training right. I offer a wide range of dog training services including basic obedience, service dog training, canine rehabilitation (working with aggressive, fearful, or other unwanted behaviors) Before working with dogs I practiced clinical psychology and applied behavior analysis. Later on I adapted the behavior sciences I had learned to dog training. This has given me a strong understanding of both canine and human behavior. I love dogs and it is my goal to provide affordable and highly effective dog training. Whether you need your furry little buddy to support you, protect you, or just behave better. I can make it happen!

Hey everyone!! I wanted to jump on here and leave a review and let you all know how amazing Canine Training Services is! My son graduates high school next month and he is deaf. I bought him a German Shepherd puppy and wanted to train her to be a service dog for my son while he's away at college. Long story short, I did my research and saw nothing but good reviews about Canine Training Services so I met with Elliott and just vibed with him right away. He is VERY informative and knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and training. He has done obedience training with our pup, taught us and our pup how to walk with her on a leash, and now we are working on the service training part of our plan. He is very good at sending notes after each session and he is really affordable! He treats Mahina like his own and that is what I appreciate most about him. He taught our pup how to listen and behave because she can be a handful. I recommend Canine Trainimg Services to everyone who needs assistance on training their dogs. Elliott is always professional and very understanding. Just a FYI each plan is tailored to yours and your dog's needs so you will not have the same plan as I but you WILL have excellent service always! Thank you Elliott for continuing to help us with Mahina!! Aloha, Jon-G (Mahina's mommy 🐕‍🦺)

I have a large Rhodesian ridgeback puppy in a house with two younger kids and three small dogs and Elliott trained him more then expected in basic obedience. The way Elliott is hands on and commands the respect of the dog and helps the owner understand the mind of a pack animal his communication is excellent and always has time to answer any questions. Elliott takes the time is reliable, professional, and a great trainer who really understands the whole pack/family.

Elliott treats my dog as if he was his own. I have a headstrong rhodesian ridge back who is very well behaved at 5 months old. Elliott is training him to be my service dog and have we've done lots of public access work that includes sit, stay, come and stop . I am very Happy I had found Elliott!
