Something Els Dog School, LLC
Els and Burt Cox are the co-owners of Something Els Dog School LLC. They met over 30 years ago in the Netherlands and have always shared their love and passion for dogs and dog training. Over the years they have trained many dogs, taken classes to educate themselves, and have competed in Agility competitions Nationally and Internationally.
In May 2016, they moved to Girard, PA and brought their 5 dogs with them. They have been competing here in the US with their Border Terriers Lady Gaga and Awesome Annie. In the Spring of 2018, they opened “Something Els Dog School,” which is located right outside Erie, PA in Fairview, PA where they have already trained over 50 dogs (and their families). With the opening of their indoor facility in Fairview, PA, they can train all year long.
Training Philosophy
Els and Burt believe dogs, like people, work better with praise rather than saying no all the time. They use positive reinforcement dog training to teach you and your dog how to work together and to become a great team with wonderful communication skills.
