Group Dog Training Classes
In the dynamic world of canine companionship, group dog training classes offer an avenue for teaching obedience while establishing a solid bond between you and your furry friend. It’s a universe where dogs don’t just learn to sit, stay, or roll over; they develop lifelong behavior skills. This vibrant learning environment fosters a synergy of cooperation, communication, and respect between pets and their owners.

Dog Day Training
Our dog day training program promises a comprehensive education for your dog. This stimulating experience covers various areas, including basic obedience classes, teaching tricks, and achieving and maintaining optimum health. A training example is counter-surfing. Put an end to your dog jumping on the kitchen counter to steal food!
Puppy Training Programs
No matter what breed they are, when left untrained, puppies get up to all sorts of mischief. This is fine when they’re young and learning, of course, but not so much when they’re older and bigger. That’s why it’s important to take them to dog training classes to teach them what is and isn’t okay right from the beginning. Our puppy training programs are designed to help your furry friend develop good habits, manners and social skills.

Lifetime Support
The success of your dog depends on the commitment of your follow through after graduation. We not only teach your dog the skills it needs to be well-behaved, but we teach you, your spouse, your kids, and anyone else how to best use those skills so you can have a long, healthy,and happy relationship with your dog. We will give you all the tools necessary to make things clear and simple to make sure everything sticks long term. While we have taught your dog a foundation, it ultimately comes down to your (and your family’s) relationship with your furry friend to ensure your new and improved family member continues to improve. We are successful because we provide dog training that works , it is that simple.

Board and Train Dog Training
Every pet owner wants a well-trained dog in the house. Such dogs promptly obey commands, can spend time alone without being destructive, safely bond with people in the home and don’t get spooked when they encounter strange dogs and people during outings. Since dogs require a lot of positive training to reach this point, dog owners nationwide trust The Dog Wizard’s board and train dog training programs to teach their pets crucial commands and manners.
Dog Separation Anxiety Training
At The Dog Wizard, we know that some dogs experience separation anxiety. When this happens, they tend to react with destructive habits or excessive vocalizing. However, from years of experience, we also know that improvements in these behaviors are very possible. With dedicated support, anxious dogs can build the confidence to spend time alone. The Dog Wizard’s separation anxiety training in Washington guides pet owners in helping their dogs become more assured when solo. Our experts share valuable knowledge on managing separation anxiety.
Resource Guarding Training
Dogs are pack animals, so it’s a natural instinct for them to share resources. But sometimes, they have to compete for these with their siblings. As they grow, some will display guarding behavior. This can revolve around food, toys, crates, or favorite resting spots. If this is a challenge you are dealing with, you can rest assured that the experts at The Dog Wizard can help.
Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program
If you’re the proud owner of an adopted or rescue dog, you’ll know that these pets are often accompanied by a unique set of difficulties. At The Dog Wizard in Washington, our expert trainers can handle training for adopted/rescue dogs from a broad range of backgrounds. Many of these dogs are either poorly socialized or are recovering from past trauma. Our training plans for rescue dogs at The Dog Wizard in Washington are customized for each canine’s personal history and behavioral needs so you can have a confident and well-mannered companion throughout your life together.
Dog Aggression Training
In some cases, your canine friend may show unexpected signs of aggression or be outright aggressive. This can make home life challenging as opposed to joyful and pleasant because an aggressive dog creates stress for everyone in the household. Despite there being some misconceptions that such behaviors are hardwired, at The Dog Wizard, we understand that they often arise from fear, stress, or lack of proper socialization. One of our certified trainers in Washington can help pinpoint and address this aggression.
