See What Other Dog Owners are Saying
I have a 4 month old female Morkie (Izzy). The training was for 6 lessons one per week. A young lady by the name of Allison was the trainer. Upon arrival she laid out the program and what was required of me each week after she left. I followed her instructions and worked with Izzy each day. Allison’s training was straight forward and easy instructions to follow.
What I have to say about Dog Wizard and Allison is “MONEY WELL SPENT”. Allison in my book is a Top Dog Trainer! My puppy is now six months old and loads of fun. Having a well-trained dog makes dog ownership even more fun.
Allison - Thank you again for a job well done!

About The Dog Wizard Woodlands
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.
