About Something Els Dog School LLC Positive Reinforcement Dog Training
Burt & Els Cox are the co-owners of Something Els Dog School LLC, a dog school with a different approach. We will teach you how to work with your dog in a positive way with rewarding & playful games that teach your dog good manners and behaviors. The advantages of positive reinforcement dog training include improving your relationship with your dog and a dog that will listen better. In turn, your dog will become more social and have better manners both inside and outside of your home!
We offer dog obedience classes in Erie, PA and the surrounding areas. We have both group classes and individual classes at our training facility in Fairview PA, and also offer in-home dog and puppy training.

Eden and I are starting the intro to scent work next week. If you want to do something just for fun with your dog, or even if you want to compete, Something Els is the place to go!

Something Els Dog School was awesome! Els is an amazing trainer, and the class was great. She really showed me how to teach my dog and gave me the confidence and tools to continue working with her at home. I would definitely recommend Something Els Dog School to anyone looking for dog training!

Els is an excellent dog trainer who uses positive reinforcement techniques. She is knowledgeable about all dog breeds and tailors her approach to what works best for each individual dog. Most impressive is that she not only trains the dogs, but also teaches owners how to work effectively with them.
Els is an excellent communicator. After every class, I receive an email outlining what my dog should continue practicing at home. Most importantly, dogs love her. My dog, Freddi, is thriving and always excited to go to doggy school! I highly recommend Something Els Dog School.

This is the first time we have done training for a pet and this is also the most we have enjoyed the puppy years. Els is a clear and consistent instructor who gets to know the dogs and owners well.
