We came to the Dog Wizard needing some help with our girl Marley. She’s had issues with reactivity towards dogs and people, pulling on the leash and trouble with distractions. We decided on doing the 2 week jumpstart camp. Briauna was her trainer and she did an amazing job! She gave Marley the confidence she needed and deserved. Bri has driven Marley in the right direction and she is so much better with things we used to really stress about. She also gave us the tools we needed so we could continue training Marley ourselves. She provided us with lots of pictures and updates, which gave us comfort and made us so proud of her progress! Thank you Corrie, Bri and everyone at the Dog Wizard for helping and taking care of Marley as well as taking a huge weight off her mom and dads shoulders!

We have had both of our dogs trained at this location. Bri was amazing with our Malinois building confidence and help overcome his insecurities which has changed him for the better. Mike did a wonderful job with instructional training with our goofy Shepherd mix. We boarded them there also. Very nice and clean facility. The staff overall is great!, friendly and supportive. The biggest plus for me is that they continue to offer support after the training is completed. Pack walks, follow up training sessions, pack outings, responsive texting answering questions, etc... Just been an incredible experience

We brought our 4 month old German Shepherd Kaya to the 2 week training program. Kat did an amazing job with her. She now walks perfect on a leash and learned basic commands! We are so happy with the results!

We adopted a beautiful 4 1/2 month old bloodhound puppy, who was smart and stubborn. She was incredibly fearful of any noise, and of all other dogs. We had several friends recommend Bri and her team at The Dog Wizard to us for help. We met with them with our puppy, and mutually decided the best course of action would be a two week immersion into training. It was a huge decision, as when my wife and I married we had 6 dogs, and had never had one formally trained, nor had we even ever had one of our pups boarded, choosing instead to have friends or family stay with our doggies. We met at The Dog Wizard Facility, where were immediately impressed with the cleanliness and loving, caring staff, but more importantly our puppy loved everyone there, and wanted to stay. We took her back the following week to drop her off over our tears and fears, but left knowing she was in great hands. During our two weeks apart, Bri started a text group with us for regular updates from her training and field trips, and we could see the transformation happening. She was out with people and other dogs, and seemed completely comfortable! When the day came for her “graduation”, she came home to us with Bri and two of her team members. The transformation was astounding and wonderful. They took their time to explain the training she had undergone, and our responsibilities to keep it going. Honestly we were overjoyed for our puppy, as she came home happier, unafraid, and on a path to a life where she can come with us to parks, restaurants, shopping, road trips, or anywhere else we choose to take her, without fear of her jumping on people, chewing our furniture, being afraid of other dogs, and just having a safer, happier life. Initially we had been afraid they might train the fun and puppy out of her, but nothing could be further from the truth! She is the same sweet, fun loving, curious puppy, just without the bad habits and fear. Thank you will never be enough to Bri and her amazing team! We highly recommend anyone who wants a better life for themselves and their dog to go see the team at The Dog Wizard!!

I brought in a 2 year old rescue that had anxiety and a fear of men. Patrick was his trainer. He did a wonderful job teaching him basic commands, building confidence, socializing him and taking my dog on amazing adventures. I’ve done the two week training with two other companies, this experience was exceptional. I’ll be continuing group training, and highly recommend both the dog wizard and Patrick.

About The Dog Wizard Fort Myers

Our dog training goes beyond basic commands like Sit, Come, and Down. Our approach focuses on helping your dog make better choices and respond to you instead of their impulses.

We cover all the essential obedience commands you need to communicate effectively with your dog. But more importantly, we teach your dog to stay engaged and follow through with these commands, even in the most distracting environments.

Our goal is to enhance your dog’s understanding of obedience, making it a natural part of their behavior, not just a few tricks they perform when they feel like it.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Dog Wizard Fort Myers offers a free evaluation. Most locations will even come to you to do one! This enables our trainers to meet you and your dog, go over your training goals and find a program that works for you. Give us a call and we will help you set one up.
The Dog Wizard trainers are well versed in a variety of training tools; from food to collars to remote collars. We know that not all dogs do well with every tool and we will help you decide what tool is best for your dog as well as what tools you’re comfortable with using. At the end of the day, whatever tool you’re comfortable in using will be the one you’re most consistent in using and that’s what’s most important to us.
It is never too late to start teaching your dog new habits. It will take more time and effort than teaching a new puppy but you will love the outcome.

In order to know how long it will take to train your dog, we will need to do a free consultation. During your consultation, we will get to understand what you are looking to gain from the training as well as evaluate your dog to see what we will need to do to get him where you would like him to be. At that point, we will be able to give you a timeline for his training.

We do not have a one size fits all approach to training. Each dog owner team that has a free evaluation will have a customized program designed to fit your specific needs. Because of this, individualized system pricing varies. Give us a call and we will help you set one up
