Canine Training Services

We adopted our dog when she was about 10 months old, and she came with some trauma from her previous owners that led to fearful aggression toward strangers. I was completely lost on how to help her until we started training with Elliott. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and understanding, not just with dogs, but with owners too! His guidance gave us the tools and confidence we needed to work through her challenges, and we’ve already seen such a positive change. I’m so grateful for all the support and would highly recommend Elliott to anyone looking for a trainer who truly cares and knows what they’re doing. - Vyrl, Izaiah, & Nikita :)

I highly recommend Elliot and Canine Training Services. We adopted our dog, Hugo, from Texas when he was about 6 months old and had experienced some real trauma early in his life. We tried taking him to other dog trainers but they would not focus on the real causes on Hugo's reactiveness and fear. We could not get Hugo to walk on a leash, interact with other humans, or even ride in the car without barking and throwing himself against the windows. After meeting with Elliot, he was able to understand how Hugo's behaviors stemmed from fear and anxiety and tailored a training schedule exactly for him. Elliot went above and beyond, thinking outside the box with Hugo, taking him to stores to be around loud noises and loading machines, walking him in parks with large groups, and learning how to enjoy being around other people and dogs. Our vet even said that he doesn't even recognize Hugo and was worried we would have to put him down when he first met him, but is completely impressed by his new behavior and how much happier he seems. I highly recommend working with Elliot and trusting his advice on helping your friend figure out how to be happier and calmer.

I was at a bit of a loss when I realized my boy, Cypress, was anxious of dogs and people, and would react aggressively if he felt threatened. Was not sure what to do, or even where to begin, and was even scared of being rejected by dog trainers because I’ve heard horrible stories of certain places not taking in misunderstood dogs. I have no regrets contacting Elliott to help me with my boy. He’s done everything to put him in check, gain his trust, and even befriend him. Along with that, I’ve learned how to better communicate with and correct my boy since hiring Elliott! We’ve been training with Elliott for over 2 years now— and my boy went from scared, anxious, upset, angry— to having the confidence to approach other dogs and people! I’ll even say my boy loves and looks forward to hanging out with his Uncle Elliott on their weekly adventures :) I STRONGLY recommend getting ahold of Elliott if you’re wanting to better your relationship with your fur baby, or just get a better understanding of how to communicate with your pup. And to Elliott and Mika— we appreciate you for all your help! Cheers to you both ❤️
