Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Maywood

Lifetime Support

The Dog Wizard in Elmhurst 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.

Private Dog Training Lessons

Need a special and personalized touch in your dog’s training? The Dog Wizard in Elmhurst 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 Elmhurst facility, depending on your needs. Our ultimate goal is to ensure the most comfortable environment for both you and your dog.

Dog Day Training

Busy days often leave little time for dog training, but The Dog Wizard’s Day Training program in Elmhurst makes it easier. Much like the name suggests, your dog spends the day with our trainers, who work on improving their behaviors and skills. But that’s not all because you will also receive private lessons to reinforce progress at home or in the park. Our options include a 6- or 15-day program, as we aim to suit your lifestyle and goals.

Dog Separation Anxiety Training

At The Dog Wizard, we know that some dogs experience separation anxiety. When this happens, they tend to react with destructive habits or excessive vocalizing. However, from years of experience, we also know that improvements in these behaviors are very possible. With dedicated support, anxious dogs can build the confidence to spend time alone. The Dog Wizard’s separation anxiety training in Elmhurst guides pet owners in helping their dogs become more assured when solo. Our experts share valuable knowledge on managing separation anxiety.

Problem Solving: Barking, Chewing, Jumping, Begging, Counter Surfing, Digging, Leash Pulling, Play Biting, Marking, Door Bolting, Housebreaking

It does happen that some dogs struggle with certain problem areas but that doesn’t have to mean you’re on your own. At The Dog Wizard, we help by building a happier, healthier bond with your dog through proven balanced techniques. Your assigned Dog Wizard trainer will design a custom training plan for your dog’s specific challenges. In turn, this can help you better interpret and address your dog’s habits through our problem-solving strategies.

Dog Aggression Training

In some cases, your canine friend may show unexpected signs of aggression or be outright aggressive. This can make home life challenging as opposed to joyful and pleasant because an aggressive dog creates stress for everyone in the household. Despite there being some misconceptions that such behaviors are hardwired, at The Dog Wizard, we understand that they often arise from fear, stress, or lack of proper socialization. One of our certified trainers in Elmhurst can help pinpoint and address this aggression. Simply reach out to find out how the specialist dog aggression training with The Dog Wizard in Elmhurst can help resolve issues and support your dog.

Resource Guarding Training

Dogs are pack animals, so it’s a natural instinct for them to share resources. But sometimes, they have to compete for these with their siblings. As they grow, some will display guarding behavior. This can revolve around food, toys, crates, or favorite resting spots. If this is a challenge you are dealing with, you can rest assured that the experts at The Dog Wizard can help.

Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program

If you’re the proud owner of an adopted or rescue dog, you’ll know that these pets are often accompanied by a unique set of difficulties. At The Dog Wizard in Elmhurst, our expert trainers can handle training for adopted/rescue dogs from a broad range of backgrounds. Many of these dogs are either poorly socialized or are recovering from past trauma. Our training plans for rescue dogs at The Dog Wizard in Elmhurst are customized for each canine’s personal history and behavioral needs so you can have a confident and well-mannered companion throughout your life together.
