Dog Training Elite Frisco

cannot say enough wonderful things about Ali and the incredible impact she has had on both my dog Louis and my life. From the very beginning with puppy training to now guiding us through service dog training, Ali has been patient, knowledgeable, supportive, and truly dedicated every step of the way. What sets Ali apart is not just her ability to train dogs, but her genuine care for both the dog and the owner. She has helped Louis grow into a confident, well-behaved, and reliable companion, and her guidance has been instrumental in life-changing experiences for me personally. Ali always takes the time to encourage, educate, and support us through every challenge and milestone. Her passion for what she does shines through in every session, and the bond and progress Louis and I have today would not have been possible without her. If you are looking for someone who truly changes lives through dog training, I wholeheartedly recommend Ali. We are beyond grateful for everything she has done for us.

Ali saved our sanity. We made the slightly insane decision to bring a puppy into our lives while we had a baby on the way. Both my wife and I had over 10 years of dog ownership experience, so we thought we had it under control. What we quickly realized, though, was that while we could train our puppy to *perform commands*, we couldn’t get her to consistently *choose to listen*. For example, I previously took our puppy to a purely positive-reinforcement training school. When they taught “drop it,” the method was to always trade the dog for the item. I even asked the trainer about a concern I had: my previous dog learned that if she stole something, I would always trade her to get it back, so stealing actually became rewarding. The trainer’s response was simply, “You should always just trade.” That wasn’t what I was looking for. I wanted an obedient dog, not one that gamed the system. Working with Dog Training Elite and Ali completely changed things. Ali taught me the techniques and structure needed to develop a truly well-behaved, obedient dog. My 8-month-old puppy can now walk off leash with me something I never thought would be possible before. Can your pure positive reinforcement puppy do that? I AM A BELIEVER IN THE TECHNIQUES ENFORCED BY DOG TRAINING ELITE NOW, call me a convert. I want to call out that I had already put a lot of work into training my dog before meeting Ali, but what I learned is that every dog is different. Ali helped me understand how to properly reinforce training so the lessons actually stick. Ali — thank you so much. Daisy misses you already!
