About Canine Training Services

My name is Doctor Elliott Briggs. I started this home-based company to do training right. I offer a wide range of dog training services including basic obedience, service dog training, canine rehabilitation (working with aggressive, fearful, or other unwanted behaviors) Before working with dogs I practiced clinical psychology and applied behavior analysis. Later on I adapted the behavior sciences I had learned to dog training. This has given me a strong understanding of both canine and human behavior. I love dogs and it is my goal to provide affordable and highly effective dog training. Whether you need your furry little buddy to support you, protect you, or just behave better. I can make it happen!

Elliott has been amazing for our pup Makima. Even before getting her I was inquiring for training for a service dog. He helped me with picking the right pup for training and has been doing amazing in training her. He has been a blessing in me and my partners lives. Makima loves him very much too! I will always recommend Elliott's training services to everyone I know and meet. He is amazing at what he does and all the different types of training he offers.

Elliott has been our dog trainer for over 5 years now. We recently got a Doberman puppy. He has been training Niko since he was 9 weeks old. Niko goes to puppy daycare, socializes with other dogs and goes on excursions. I don’t think we would have survived the puppy stage without Elliott. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Elliott is an AMAZING trainer. I recently adopted a Russell mix shortly after the passing of my Lhasa, and did not know the Russell mix was 13/14 months old at the time of adoption. When looking for trainers, Canine Training Services came up, and they are VERY responsive and kind. Elliott and Mika are very gentle with our dog Nemo and are also working with us to get our cat trained too! I implore all dog owners to use Canine Training Services.

Elliot’s services have been a complete game changer for my older German shepherd. Ru had always been on and off reactive to people and other dogs - just a few short weeks with Elliot’s expert guidance and she was comfortable enough to attend group sessions and interact with other dogs. We can now take her to more places and not worry about her being stressed out or reactive. Elliott’s training programs and pricing are excellent - not only did we receive training for one dog, but we were able to include our new dog as well at no additional cost - a fantastic value. Elliott offers individual, group, and daycare sessions. Our dogs have benefited immensely from this variety of options. They even get to go to out on excursions and interact with people/dogs in a number of new environments to push them and reinforce their training. Thanks Elliott!

They did such a great job transforming our boy Link. Link went from a dog that couldn’t bare the sight of another dog without wanting to attack, to being able to walk with unfamiliar dogs with 0 signs of aggression. We are more than grateful.
