Just like humans, dogs can face dental issues that cause pain and discomfort.

Plaque buildup, gum disease, and tooth decay can make it tough for your pup to eat or enjoy playtime. Left untreated, these problems can even lead to infections.

At Dog Training Elite Central Maryland, we believe regular dental care improves your dog's overall health and helps them stay focused for training.

We love helping dogs and their owners feel confident and happy. Always consult your vet for the proper dental care for your dog. Reach out to learn more about our elite training services and for pet care tips!

As families adjust to back-to-school, it's important to consider how sudden shifts in routine can affect your dog. These changes can cause anxiety or behavioral issues, especially if your dog is left alone for longer periods of time than usual.
Consistent training reinforces basic obedience skills like "down" and "place," which can help your dog remain calm in new situations and build confidence and self-control.

At Dog Training Elite Central Maryland, we're here to help your family navigate the back-to-school transition with personalized training solutions. From addressing separation anxiety to improving obedience, our elite in-home training and group classes are designed to fit your schedule. Contact us today to learn how we can support your dog during this busy time!

Watching a dog transform and grow through training is one of the most rewarding experiences! At Dog Training Elite Central Maryland, we're proud to make a difference in the lives of owners and their dogs, just like Marble.
Our trainers are dedicated to providing elite training and consistently exceeding expectations. Marble's owners saw firsthand the impact our approach can have, especially appreciating the in-home experience that allowed them to observe and be involved in every step of the process.
Thank you for the glowing review, LaVar. We're honored to have helped Marble become a completely changed German Shepherd!

Training taps into a dog's natural desire for leadership and cooperation. Most dogs need a combination of gentle correction and positive reinforcement, and DTE can teach you how to train for success.
Dogs have a natural tendency to follow order; it's rooted in their pack instincts. Every wild dog or wolf in a pack has a specific role during hunts. Instead of just chasing prey, some wolves are strategically positioned for ambush, while others drive the prey toward these points. If a wild dog doesn't fulfill its role, it could face correction or be pushed out of the pack. This social order led dogs to naturally seek strong leadership.

Service dogs are highly trained to assist individuals with their conditions, such as PTSD, autism, epilepsy, diabetes, and mobility issues. Having a service dog by their side can greatly enhance quality of life and reduce anxiety in public spaces.
While not every dog is suited for this role, contact Dog Training Elite Central Maryland today if you are interested in having your dog evaluated. We understand how much dogs thrive when they have a job and training them for service is the most rewarding part of what we do!

It's no wonder training sessions make happier dogs. Research shows that training a dog involves more than just teaching obedience, it can also subtly alter their thought processes, equipping them with a better ability to problem solve.
Let Dog Training Elite Central Maryland evaluate your dog (at no cost to you) and find out just how capable your dog truly is!

Keep your dog cool when it's hot outside, and learn the signs of overheating (excessive panting and drooling, cold-seeking behavior, rapid breathing, disorientation).
If your dogs seems to be overheating, try the following:
1. Move your dog to a cooler area immediately.
2. Wet them with cool (not ice) water.
3. Use a fan to help cool them down and check their temperature regularly.
4. Give them cool water to drink.
5. Overheating and heatstroke are life-threatening, so even if your dog seems to be recovering, take them to a veterinarian for monitoring and treatment.

Training a dog usually entails basic commands and tricks, but it is so much more than that! Dog Training Elite Central Maryland can help you train your dog to overcome major (or minor) behavioral issues like social anxiety, separation anxiety, food aggression, barking, and destructive digging and chewing.

Through training, Kona learned to thrive in the company of other dogs whom she once feared, and she boldly ventures into public places while listening attentively to her owner.

Thanks for the great review, Zac!

When you provide your dog with top-notch training, it not only offers structure and mental stimulation but also reduces anxiety and prevents boredom. Training is immensely beneficial for your dog, and your home becomes a more relaxing place for everyone when your dog has mastered good manners. Although it comes with its challenges and not every day will be a complete success, we've seen time and time again how training with the help from a professional leads to a more fulfilled and joyful life!

While many of our obedience training graduates go on to become service dogs or therapy dogs, all DTE grads are exceptionally well-mannered companions who listen, observe, and eagerly anticipate their owners commands.

The "puppy blues" is a common experience for new dog owners, characterized by feelings of anxiety and overwhelm after bringing a new puppy or dog home.
In addition to exercise, love, and patience, there is one sure-fire antidote to the puppy blues: effective training.
First and foremost, call Dog Training Elite Central Maryland to get a professional evaluation on your dog's unique needs.
Second, create a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, timeouts, and training. A routine helps both you and your puppy know what to expect, reducing anxiety and chaos.
Third, ensure your puppy gets enough physical exercise and mental stimulation. Puzzle toys, interactive games, and regular walks can help burn off energy and reduce destructive behavior.
Lastly, remember that even the BEST adult dogs were once mischievous little land sharks who needed to be let out for potty breaks at 2 am.
You got this!

According to a recent survey conducted by Forbes Advisor, 1 in 4 people have serious regrets about getting a dog.
But here's the reality . . . if you surrender your dog while it has training or behavioral issues, the chances of that dog being rehomed or surrendered again is much greater!
Before you call it quits, give your dog the chance to show you how ELITE he can be. Give him a shot with the best dog training method in the area! We get results.

Although we work with dogs every single day, we are constantly learning amazing new things about them! (Fun Fact #6 is our favorite and partly explains why dogs LOVE being trained as service animals!)
1. Petting a dog lowers human blood pressure—and the dog's too!
2. Dogs curl up in a ball when they sleep to protect their vital organs, a survival instinct from their wild ancestors.
3. Yawning is contagious for dogs too. Hearing a human yawn, especially from someone they know, makes dogs four times more likely to yawn.
4. Dogs can sense heat and thermal radiation with their noses, allowing blind or deaf dogs to hunt effectively.
5. When dogs kick backward after bathroom breaks, they're marking their territory with scent glands in their feet, not trying to cover up their p**p.
6. Recent research reveals that dogs are among the few animals who exhibit voluntary, unselfish kindness to others without expecting a reward.
7. A dog's nose has its own unique pattern—just like human fingerprints!

We know you love your dog, but you don't have to love all his behavioral issues too. If your dog struggles with aggression, anxiety, destructive chewing/digging, accidents, and/or hyperactivity, ask for a free in-home consultation to find out what can be done to improve your dog's behavior.

- Pacing or restlessness
- Excessive barking or whimpering
- Trembling or shaking
- Avoidant behavior or hiding
- Destructive chewing or digging

Imagine you and your dog are headed to the base of a beautiful mountain—one you've anticipated hiking together for years. You park along a dirt road and the air is filled with the scent of pine; the sound of wildlife is all around you. You open the door and as you get out of the car, your dog sits patiently, completely focused on you and your cues.

This is a leash-optional trail, and you're thrilled that you put in the work to train for a reliable and consistent recall. You know if you encounter any dangerous wildlife, your dog will obey your command to "leave it". Other hikers won't have to worry about being jumped on or barked at because that too has been trained, and your dog has even passed the Canine Good Citizen test.

You enjoy a blissful 4-mile hike without any issues and are deeply grateful for the work you put into having such an elite companion.
