They’re Not Naughty—They’re Untrained.
Chewed cushions, zoomies on command, counter-surfing disasters… sound familiar? You’re not alone.

At Dog Training Elite Western Chicago, we transform unruly behaviors into lasting obedience through personalized, high-level training designed to fit your dog’s needs—and your lifestyle.

From couch climbers in Downtown Naperville to leash-pullers at Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve, we help dogs (and their humans) build better habits, together.

Puppy training is so important! Socialization isn’t just having your dog meet other dogs or people. There is so much young puppies need to learn and some of it happens even before you can take your puppy home!

Our goal is to guide people through this process and help set your dog up for success for their whole lifetime!

Give us a call and find out why we are so highly recommended! 630.445.4084

Raising a confident puppy secure nips some future problems in the bud. Learn how to boost their confidence so they become a self-assured adult.

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 Western Chicago, 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 Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve, other dogs at DTE Western Chicago Facility (Naperville), or overstimulating spots like Downtown Naperville, we’ll help you build trust through positive, progressive training, including safe muzzle conditioning when appropriate.

Training with Katie, Tim, Grace, Pauline & Jamie in Naperville, Downers Grove, or Wheaton 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 Western Chicago, we don’t just train obedience—we educate families on how to keep their pups safe at home and in public.

"DTE is absolutely amazing! We signed our puppy, Hank, up for two puppy camps and the platinum training package and have no regrets doing so. The staff is SUPER friendly while also being professional. You can tell the trainers truly care about your dog’s well-being and comfort. Pauline and Grace have given Hank so much love...”

I have been a trainer/handler for many years (since 15yrs) I have worked with a number of breeds (mainly Dobermans). I am also a member of many training clubs in the Cincinnati area including Queen City, HDTC and owner at DoubleTake Dobermans.. In addition to that, I am proud to be working so closely and in conjunction with such a great team of trainers here in Cincinnati and all the way to Indianapolis and the Greater Chicago area where so many of my dogs reside.

Dog training Elite of greater Cincinnati, Scott Joyce has assisted a number of my clients from start to finish in basic group training all the way to Public access/Service therapy.
These group sessions offer an engaging environment and create an interactive setting where your dog will learn to focus with distractions and develop essential social skills beyond the basics of obedience training.

It starts with careful and constructive breeding, to the proper placements, and is followed up by continuous quality training using a modern positive approach.
