Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Woodbury

Board and Train Dog Training

Do you want to enroll your dog in training classes but don’t have time to attend? We’ve got you covered. At The Dog Wizard in Twin Cities, we offer board and train programs at various program lengths of stay: 7 days, 14 days or 21 days. During the program, your pet will stay with us full-time and learn directly from our dedicated, professional trainers in Twin Cities.

Lifetime Support

It’s one thing for your dog to learn new skills. It’s another for your dog to retain those skills for years. At The Dog Wizard in Twin Cities, we offer lifetime support as part of our training programs. After your dog graduates, you can continue to bring it in for weekly group classes. These sessions offer a chance to reinforce skills, make new friends in Twin Cities and strengthen the unique bond between the pet and pet parent.

Dog Day Training

Finding time to train your dog can be difficult. If you’re too busy during the day, you might benefit from The Dog Wizard Day Training program in Twin Cities. Throughout the day, your pet will work with a trainer to improve behavior. Between day schools, you’ll enjoy a private lesson in the comfort of your own home. Depending on your and your dog’s needs, you may choose between 6-day and 15-day programs.

Puppy Training Programs

There’s no doubt puppies are full of energy. While this playfulness provides plenty of entertainment, it can also lead to behavioral problems. From chewing furniture to play biting, there are all sorts of mischief for young puppies to get into. That’s why at The Dog Wizard in Twin Cities, we offer comprehensive puppy training. These lessons teach puppies essential skills (such as obedience commands, leash walking and socialization), helping ensure they grow into well-behaved adults.

Resource Guarding Training

The Dog Wizard in Twin Cities offers training to safely address and modify resource guarding to ensure peace in your home. Resource guarding is when certain dogs guard their food, toys, or favorite spots aggressively. This behavior stems from early competition with their littermates but it can be worked on with great results for your dog, you, and everyone in your household.

Dog Socialization Training

Your dog may be the most well-mannered companion at home but all this changes as soon as they see their leash and head outside. They may experience fear or even aggression in these cases, but this is all solvable. Give your dog the gift of confidently exploring new environments. That’s our goal with The Dog Wizard’s socialization training in Twin Cities. Count on our expert trainers to help with positive exposure to different settings and experiences. This way, your dog will build resilience and adaptability.

Problem Solving: barking, chewing, jumping, begging, counter surfing, digging, leash pulling, play biting, marking, door bolting, housebreaking

Different dogs have different challenges that need to be worked on. Sometimes it’s digging other times it’s leash pulling. But there are many others. If you want to better understand and manage problem behaviors, you need the right targeted solutions. At The Dog Wizard, your assigned trainer will create a customized training plan that focuses on specific issues to improve your dog’s conduct.

Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program

Training adopted or rescue dogs requires special care and the right approach. Rest assured that the trainers at The Dog Wizard in Twin Cities are experienced in this. They can help under-socialized, abused, or hyperactive dogs learn new or adapt current behaviors for greater confidence and a smoother, more joyful life together. We tailor training programs to each rescue dog’s unique history and needs for the best outcomes.

Dog Separation Anxiety Training

If you’re afraid of leaving your dog alone for extended periods of time, we get you and you’re not alone. We know that separation anxiety often leads to disruptive behaviors like chewing or barking and that can leave you feeling stressed. The good news here is that this is entirely manageable and can improve with proper training. The Dog Wizard’s program helps dogs build confidence and learn to cope with alone time, supported by expert guidance from our trainers.
