Private Dog Training Lessons

If your dog benefits from more individualized coaching, The Dog Wizard in Sarasota offers custom private sessions. First, our trainers closely observe your dog to understand its habits. Next, we establish a training plan made just for them. These private lessons are available at your home or at our Sarasota facility—whichever setting feels best for your dog and you.

Lifetime Support

Acquiring new skills is important for your dog, but maintaining them over time matters even more. With The Dog Wizard’s lifetime support in Sarasota, our programs offer you ongoing access to weekly group sessions after graduation. These meetups help reinforce training, provide socialization for you and your dog in Sarasota, and strengthen the special bond between pet and owner.

Puppy Training Programs

Puppies are absolute bundles of joy teeming with boundless energy as part of their playful nature. This can be entertaining but small, seemingly unnoticeable problems can lead to long-term challenges like chewing or nipping that carry over into adulthood. At The Dog Wizard in Sarasota, our thorough puppy training covers everything needed to manage these behaviors. Our courses teach vital puppy skills to help them mature into balanced adult dogs. Examples of these critical skills include following commands, walking on leash, and proper social skills.

Specialty Dog Training

Looking for a special program for your dog? The Dog Wizard locations throughout Sarasota offer unique specialty classes: agility for energetic pups, scent work for honing detection skills, therapy prep for emotional support work, and baby prep for families expecting a child. All of our specialty classes are open to any breed and any age, and they are available for both beginners and those with prior experience.
