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 Richmond, 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 Richmond, and strengthen the special bond between pet and owner.

Private Dog Training Lessons

If your dog benefits from more individualized coaching, The Dog Wizard in Richmond 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 Richmond facility—whichever setting feels best for your dog and you.

Dog Day Training

Carving out time in your schedule for dog training isn’t easy. If you’re often busy during the day, The Dog Wizard’s Day Training program in Richmond could be ideal. Your dog works with a dedicated trainer over the course of the day for behavioral improvement. You also get tailored private lessons in the comfort of your own home. Our options include a 6- or 15-day program. Let your trainer help you decide, based on the main goals you’d like to achieve for your dog.
