Rich Ehrenberg has been the best possible resource for us with dog training. We engaged Rich to work with our 9-week old Bouvier, Maurice. What was best about Rich’s method is that he not only worked with our dog, he worked with the whole family. He encouraged us to learn and to practice, and the experience was worthwhile and memorable. Rich brings to the training process a wealth of knowledge and insight about canine behavior, health issues, personality and breeding. His training was customized to fit our dog, our family lifestyle, and our desire to have our dog be a true companion and part of the family. Rich helped us minimize common puppy issues like biting and nipping, and we rapidly progressed to commands, off-leash training, and establishing boundaries on our property. Our experience with Elite Dog Training was enjoyable, valuable and worthwhile. Rich’s kind, and friendly demeanor, along with his firm and authoritative teaching style was the perfect combination. Without hesitation would I recommend him to anyone who wants to truly enjoy their dog as a obedient family member and companion.

We highly recommend Rich Ehrenberg at Elite Dog Training. We recently brought home a 10 month old Wheaton Terrier. He was sweet and playful and immediately became part of our family.
Other than normal puppy behavior, there was one problem. Every once and a while, he would growl at our granddaughters, which made us consider returning him to the breeder.
Enter Rich, who was recommended  by our Vet.  Within two weeks, not only did he have that problem solved, he made him stop jumping and be more obedient when outside and at home.
We know Rich is there whenever we need him for a "refresher," which is a very secure feeling.  He is truly amazing at what he does.

What can I say about Elite?  I know why Rich chose that name because that’s what they are to my family, and our spunky Aussie pup Jones!  Rich had an immediate connection and rapport struck with Jones that can only come from years of successful training and handling of all kinds of dogs. Rich and Becky have been nothing but accommodating to work with our schedule to come this summer for 2 weeks, an hour per day to get Jones started on the right foot early....he had been very active and employing his “herding” activities around young kids which we needed to nip in the bud asap...Rich was able to get that fix in the works right away and gave us all the tools to work on while he wasn’t with us. Basic commands as well as off-leash training are the bookends for what Elite really brings to anyone fortunate enough to obtain their services...we would be in a tough situation without them. I can’t thank them enough, and their unmatched mastery of obedience and training have been such a blessing for my family, and especially Jones!!
Thank you!

Rich is a lifesaver!!! We adopted our 3 year old rescue pit mix Lola, and she had a ton of issues we needed to fix - the only command she knew was sit, she’d never walked on a leash, she jumped on people, she bolted out an open door, she was never socialized as a puppy, and many more. Rich was extremely patient, with Lola and with us, as we all learned how to do all of these things. It’s been difficult at times because Lola is VERY stubborn, but Rich never gave up! He continued working with all of us, constantly coming up with new and creative ways to keep Lola on track, (including having his wife Becky help out!) He spent countless hours coming to our house, talking on the phone, texting dozens of times, and recommending products to help with both training and Lola’s diet and skin issues. He really went above and beyond to be a kind, thoughtful, dedicated trainer for months. And on top of it all, Lola LOVES Rich! She even knew when his car pulled in the driveway, and was always waiting for him by the door. She was so excited every time she saw him!
Rich has really helped make Lola an amazing family member!!!  And we feel like through it all, he has become a part of our family too!  We are truly grateful and thrilled with all of Rich’s hard work!  Thank you for everything you have done for all of us!  Rich is the best and I highly recommend Rich to everyone!!!

Rich is an amazing trainer. He started with our super high energy Macy when she was a puppy. With her high energy we knew that we needed Macy to be well trained early and Rich came highly recommended from friends. We couldn't be happier with not only what Rich taught Macy, but what Rich taught us about Macy and how to connect with her. Training isn't something that happens once and doesn't need reinforcement and what Rich taught us as parents/owners allowed what Macy learned to stick.

Rich doesn't take a one-size-fits-all approach. When we first adopted Macy and Rich started training her, we thought she was a certain combination of breeds and he tuned his training to those breeds. Macy wasn't responding the same way he had seen those breeds respond in the past. At about the same time we received the results of a DNA/Breed test and the results showed a different combination of breeds. Rich adjusted his training approach and it was effective immediately. His many years of experience first as a Vet Tech and now as a trainer really show!

Everything that Rich did to train Macy as well as to teach us about Macy has been invaluable and Rich/Elite is the only trainer we recommend when friends ask. Thank you Rich!
