Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Signal Mountain

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 Chattanooga. 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 Chattanooga, 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.

Group Dog Training Classes

Are you interested in group training in Chattanooga for your dog? We offer group dog training classes that cover everything your dog needs to know, from obedience commands to housebreaking. In addition to learning new skills, it’ll have a chance to socialize with fellow canines. Our programs at The Dog Wizard in Chattanooga include puppy classes for dogs up to 5 months of age, as well as foundation classes for small groups of five to seven.

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 Chattanooga, 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 Chattanooga and strengthen the unique bond between the pet and pet parent.

American Kennel Club (AKC) Training

The Dog Wizard is pleased to share that our puppy program in Chattanooga is also an AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program. This means that, after passing the program, your dog will be eligible to test for the AKC S.T.A.R. certificate. In addition to receiving certification, you and your puppy will be registered in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy records and receive a display medal.

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

Positive reinforcement shapes desirable dog conduct effectively. Owners reward good actions to encourage repetition. This technique reliably resolves common behavioral challenges.

Dog Separation Anxiety Training

Managing separation anxiety proves challenging and occasionally exasperating. Yet dogs can conquer it and gain assurance. Rooted in fear, solutions target the core unease. Comfort with solitude enables true change. The Dog Wizard's program boosts self-reliance, fortifies bonds, and equips pets to handle daily pressures effectively.

Dog Aggression Training

Stressed dogs often display warning signals like growling or posturing to create distance. Barking at children might seem like dislike, but usually reflects inadequate socialization and overwhelm from their energy. The Dog Wizard's skilled trainers collaborate with you to enhance dog-owner dialogue. Building trust in your reassurance allows calmer responses to triggers.

Resource Guarding Training

Growling, snapping, or biting over items signals a need for professional help, especially in homes with children who miss cues. The Dog Wizard addresses these instincts safely.

Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program

Adopting from shelters or rescues often means unknown backgrounds for your new dog. Patience, time, and structured training resolve emerging issues and build family familiarity. Dogs thrive with routine, so beginning obedience classes promptly proves wise. The Dog Wizard tailors support for smooth integration.
