FirstBarkVery positive/gentle approach to household dog obedience. The “Doghouse” was a very nice climate controlled space for training.

About Something Els Dog School LLC Positive Reinforcement Dog Training
Burt & Els Cox are the co-owners of Something Els Dog School LLC, a dog school with a different approach. We will teach you how to work with your dog in a positive way with rewarding & playful games that teach your dog good manners and behaviors. The advantages of positive reinforcement dog training include improving your relationship with your dog and a dog that will listen better. In turn, your dog will become more social and have better manners both inside and outside of your home! We offer dog obedience classes in Erie, PA and the surrounding areas. We have both group classes and individual classes at our training facility in Fairview PA, and also offer in-home dog and puppy training. Have a question about how our training works? Ask!

We were so happy to find a training facility that would help us with our 4 month old puppy. We need he needed to start the basics, but didn't know how to start training ourselves. Something Els gave us a foundation and helped us to remember to continue to practice the skills we were learning with our puppy each week. I would definitely recommend their Puppy 1 class. This class was also very affordable!
Great atmosphere and small groups, so you get the attention you need.
I currently have two of my three dogs in classes with Els and have taken two prior dogs thru multiple classes. Positive reinforcement training is a must for me and she is the best! There are trainers 5 minutes from me but I drive 25-30 minutes for her classes because they are worth it! Highly recommend her and Burt for your training needs.
We really enjoyed our classes! My dog is almost 2 years old, and really took to Els teaching method. We definitely plan to return for more classes!
