Why the Dog Service Industry
The pet industry is worth $320 billion and projected to grow to nearly $500 billion by 2030. Recent data has consistently shown that pet owners are increasingly willing to spend big money on their pets’ health and happiness, and proper training is a common step pet owners take to benefit both themselves and their pets.
There has been a notable shift in the perception of pets, with many owners now viewing them as integral family members. This change has led to increased attention to pet health and wellbeing, driving demand for quality pet services. Dog Training Elite franchisees entering the industry can capitalize on this trend by offering specialized services that cater to the evolving needs of conscientious pet owners.

Our Culture
Dog Training Elite’s strength lies in its ability to customize training programs to fit the unique needs of each family within a local community. Whether it’s introducing a rescue dog to a new home or training a service animal, the brand’s trainers work closely with families to achieve their specific goals. This flexibility makes Dog Training Elite an ideal partner for a wide range of clients, including millennials, busy families and those with support dogs. Under the new leadership of Feaster, Dog Training Elite is poised to continue its growth and innovation. With a focus on expanding services and refining training methods, the brand is dedicated to enhancing the lives of dogs and their owners nationwide.
Leadership with Proven Success
Unique Customer Offerings
Dog Training Elite offers training services that are hard (or impossible) to find with other providers. Dog Training Elite emphasizes the connection between the dog and handler, which is a major differentiator, but the model also allows trainers to come to the client’s space.
In a world of pet store puppy classes and facility-only training models, Dog Training Elite has a standout offering for clients interested in a more purposeful training experience.
Meaningful Community Connections
Through services like The Malinois Foundation, Dog Training Elite’s national charitable arm, and its national partnership with Vets Helping Heroes, the franchise supports its owners in giving back and making a real impact. The Dog Training Elite leadership team is very intentional about the organizations it partners with and the purposes it supports, but the company also allows franchisees to choose additional efforts in their communities to help give back, as well.
Franchisee Testimonials
We had always been around dogs and training dogs, but we really fell in love with the people. We saw that we had a lot to learn about dog training but saw that the leadership team knew their stuff. We were also able to get into Dog Training Elite without taking out a second mortgage on our home or taking on an SBA loan. We started off with three franchises, and we now have eight. Every dime we’ve made, we’ve put into new territories.”Franchisee Testimonials
Sarah, my wife, Adria, my daughter, and I got into this because of service dogs. That’s our heart and our passion. We also knew we couldn’t make a full living and support the family on just service dogs, so we branched out to obedience, protection and other training types, and all of them have done very well. We had a five-year plan, and we fulfilled that five-year plan at the end of our second year.”Franchisee Testimonials
In a lot of franchises, if you own a territory, you have to pay royalties even if you don’t sell anything. With Dog Training Elite, there are no marketing minimums and there are no royalties if you don’t sell. Because of that, and the FDD being so great, we felt comfortable knowing that we’ll be able to scale up as we grow into all 17 territories,”Locations Available for Franchising
