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 Dayton, 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.
