Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Chelsea, MI

Group Dog Training Classes

The Dog Wizard in Chelsea 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).

Private Dog Training Lessons

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

Specialty Dog Training

Want a specialized training experience? Many The Dog Wizard centers in Chelsea offer specialty courses like agility training for active dogs, scent detection, therapy prep, and baby safety classes. These are open to all breeds, suitable for beginners and those with some experience.

Dog Day Training

Busy days often leave little time for dog training, but The Dog Wizard’s Day Training program in Chelsea 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.

Lifetime Support

The Dog Wizard in Chelsea 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.

Resource Guarding Training

The Dog Wizard in Chelsea offers training to safely address and modify resource guarding to ensure peace in your home. Resource guarding is when certain dogs guard their food, toys, or favorite spots aggressively. This behavior stems from early competition with their littermates but it can be worked on with great results for your dog, you, and everyone in your household.

Dog Aggression Training

Aggressive behavior in dogs can cause significant household stress. Some believe that this is part of their innate personality characteristics, but our expert trainers know better. We understand that aggression is often linked to fear, poor socialization, or trauma. That’s why The Dog Wizard in Chelsea offers skilled trainers who work with you to address aggression and improve your dog's behavior for a calmer home.

Dog Separation Anxiety Training

If you’re afraid of leaving your dog alone for extended periods of time, we get you and you’re not alone. We know that separation anxiety often leads to disruptive behaviors like chewing or barking and that can leave you feeling stressed. The good news here is that this is entirely manageable and can improve with proper training. The Dog Wizard’s program helps dogs build confidence and learn to cope with alone time, supported by expert guidance from our trainers.

Adopted/Rescue Dog Training Program

Training adopted or rescue dogs requires special care and the right approach. Rest assured that the trainers at The Dog Wizard in Chelsea are experienced in this. They can help under-socialized, abused, or hyperactive dogs learn new or adapt current behaviors for greater confidence and a smoother, more joyful life together. We tailor training programs to each rescue dog’s unique history and needs for the best outcomes.

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

Different dogs have different challenges that need to be worked on. Sometimes it’s digging other times it’s leash pulling. But there are many others. If you want to better understand and manage problem behaviors, you need the right targeted solutions. At The Dog Wizard, your assigned trainer will create a customized training plan that focuses on specific issues to improve your dog’s conduct.
