False. Little Dogs Can Absolutely Be Service Animals.

While this adorable pup might not be suited for mobility support, small dogs can be incredible psychiatric service dog partners. Small breeds are often the perfect fit for psychiatric task work.

At Dog Training Elite Augusta, we focus on pairing the right dog with the right job because effective service starts with thoughtful matching and elite training.

Whether it’s medical alert, PTSD response, or anxiety interruption, our trainers ensure that every dog is task-trained with precision and care.

Muzzles Aren’t a Sign of a Bad Dog. They’re a Tool for a Better Life.
Reactivity, fear, and past trauma can isolate dogs—and their people. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
At Dog Training Elite Augusta, we believe muzzles are a responsible, compassionate tool. They help keep everyone safe while giving reactive or fearful dogs the chance to train, socialize, and explore the world again with confidence.

Whether your dog struggles with new people at Augusta Riverwalk, other dogs in North Augusta, or overstimulating spots in Aiken, we’ll help you build trust through positive, progressive training, including safe muzzle conditioning when appropriate.

Training with Steve & Dontevia in Augusta, Aiken, or North Augusta means you’re not alone. We’re here to support both ends of the leash.

"But It’s Just a Bite…” Could Be a Big Problem!

Some human foods can be dangerous—or even deadly, for dogs. Keep these common items off the menu:

🍫 Chocolate
🍇 Grapes & raisins
🧅 Onions & garlic
🍷 Alcohol or caffeine
🍬 Xylitol (found in sugar-free gum & candy)

At Dog Training Elite Augusta, we don’t just train obedience—we educate families on how to keep their pups safe at home and in public.

After recovering from a serious car accident, Priya struggled with daily anxiety and panic attacks. Her rescue dog, Benny, had always been sweet, but through training with Dog Training Elite Augusta, he became her certified PTSD service dog.

Benny now knows how to apply deep pressure during panic episodes, block in crowded spaces, and keep Priya grounded during high-stress moments. He’s not just loyal, he’s life-changing.
