Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Bonita Springs

Lifetime Support

The Dog Wizard in Fort Myers truly understands that learning new skills is just the beginning of any training and new skills your dog acquires. Reinforcing those skills regularly is just as important as the initial training program. And because of this importance, we provide lifetime support to ensure your dog retains and maintains what they’ve learned. After completing your desired training program, you can attend weekly group classes that reinforce skills, foster socialization, and nurture strong bonds.

Board and Train Dog Training

Have you always wanted to enroll your dog in training but never seem to find the time to do so? The Dog Wizard in Fort Myers offers a perfect solution. Perfect for those whose schedules are too tight to attend dog training classes but who want the best for their canine friends, is our board and train program. What it means is your dog stays with our expert trainers full-time for 7, 14, or 21 days. You choose the schedule to suit your preferences. Your pet will receive attentive, professional dog training tailored to their needs right here in Fort Myers throughout their stay with us.

Private Dog Training Lessons

Need a special and personalized touch in your dog’s training? The Dog Wizard in Fort Myers offers private training sessions that give your canine friend personalized attention. These classes are uniquely tailored to your dog’s personality and behavior, based on a thorough assessment of your dog by our trainers. They then create a specific training strategy that’s followed through for great results. These private sessions can be held at your home or at our Fort Myers facility, depending on your needs. Our ultimate goal is to ensure the most comfortable environment for both you and your dog.

Group Dog Training Classes

The Dog Wizard in Fort Myers hosts group classes that cover everything your pet needs to build confidence and manners in a group setting. Our program covers the depth and breadth of training, from essential obedience commands to house training. Your much-loved canine friend will learn all the important skills and behaviors to thrive at home and outdoors in the community. Socializing with other pets will help them build confidence and good manners. Our programs include puppy classes for dogs younger than five months and our foundation courses are perfect for small groups (consisting of five to seven dogs).

Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program

When you adopt a new puppy or dog from an animal shelter or a rescue organization, the history of your pet is generally unknown. Time, patience, and training are essential for solving potential behavior problems and getting your dog familiar with family members. Because structure is so important for dogs, starting a dog obedience class as soon as possible is a good idea.

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

Positive reinforcement training is a vital tool in fostering good behavior in dogs. This approach emphasizes rewarding the dog for positive behavior, encouraging them to repeat it. This method has proven to be an easy way to address several behavioral issues successfully.

Dog Separation Anxiety Training

Learning how to deal with a dog with separation anxiety can be difficult and sometimes frustrating. Fortunately, dogs with separation anxiety can overcome their issues and become more self-confident. Because these types of dog behavior problems are caused by fear, the key to solving them is to address the underlying nervousness. Behavior modification can only happen once your dog feels comfortable about being left alone. A training program that builds your dog’s self-confidence and reinforces the bond between you and your pet helps your new puppy or dog overcome fears and learn how to cope with everyday stress that can help treat separation anxiety.

Resource Guarding Training

If your dog tends to growl, snap or bite when guarding possessions, you should consult with a dog trainer, particularly if you have children who may be unable to sense warning signs.

Dog Aggression Training

An uncomfortable dog usually responds with intimidating or threatening behavior as a way of warning others to back off. You might feel your dog doesn’t like children when it barks loudly at your neighbors’ kids, but it’s more likely it hasn’t been socialized in these situations and is feeling stressed by the children’s loud and unpredictable behavior. At The Dog Wizard, our knowledgeable dog trainers work with you to improve communication between you and your canine companion. Once your dog knows it can trust you when you tell it that it’s safe, your pet can start responding to these situations in different ways.
