Dog Training, Behavioral and Obedience Programs in Cincinnati, OH

Group Dog Training Classes

Are you interested in group training in Cincinnati 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 Cincinnati include puppy classes for dogs up to 5 months of age, as well as foundation classes for small groups of five to seven.

Private Dog Training Lessons

Does your dog need one-on-one training support? The Dog Wizard in Cincinnati has you covered with our personalized, private dog training sessions. First, our professional trainers will get to know your pet’s unique habits. Then, they’ll design a training plan that meets their precise needs. These lessons may take place at your home or our facility in Cincinnati — wherever you and your dog feel most comfortable.

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

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 Cincinnati. 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.

Board and Train Dog Training

Do you want to enroll your dog in training classes but don’t have time to attend? We’ve got you covered. At The Dog Wizard in Cincinnati, we offer board and train programs at various program lengths of stay: 7 days, 14 days or 21 days. During the program, your pet will stay with us full-time and learn directly from our dedicated, professional trainers in Cincinnati.

Resource Guarding Training

The Dog Wizard in Cincinnati 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.

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 Cincinnati 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.

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 Cincinnati 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.

Trusted by Cincinnati Dog Owners

From leash pulling to fear and aggression, here is how families near Cincinnati describe their experience with The Dog Wizard.

★★★★★ Leash Walking & Manners

“Cincinnati Dog Wizard exceeded our expectations! Our 1 year old poodle had issues with leash walking, door bolting, excessive barking, and jumping on people. He no longer has any of these issues!! Tara was our trainer and we absolutely loved her. We really appreciated her patience with our poodle and loved seeing how comfortable he got with her. After being dropped off after his 2 week training program, he is still doing so well and following commands that was taught to him at Cincinnati Dog Wizard. We look forward to being able to enjoy life with our playful poodle. We HIGHLY recommend Cincinnati Dog Wizard and we love Tara!!!”

★★★★★ Anxiety & Greetings

“We have had a remarkable experience at The Dog Wizard with our mastiff/ridgeback mix. We had tried other methods for training him and were still struggling with intense and intimidating greetings, pulling while on walks and (we learned) some pretty strong anxiety. After the two week board and train, he is calmer, I feel in control and have a plan for when we have visitors, he is pleasant to walk with and generally seems calmer and happier. The ongoing support with our trainer, Pam, has also been very helpful. She has taken lots of time to explain how we can continue to support all he has learned from his training. I definitely recommend The Dog Wizard in Cincinnati!”

★★★★★ Aggression Toward Strangers

“The Dog Wizard Cincinnati was amazing. Our wheaten who is 6 years old was exhibiting aggressive behavior towards strangers, especially delivery people. He would bark, whine, and jump on back of couch and up in window when he would hear a truck go by. And if he was outside or would door bolt he would try to bite and began to succeed. Now he is doing such a good job holding place when the doorbell rings, no more aggressive or crazy behavior. He also is a joy to take for a walk now, has basic commands under control, and comes when called. He also doesn’t knock down those he loves with his wheaten hugs as he has learned not to jump. Worth the investment for a dog of any age!!”

★★★★★ Rescue & Reactivity

“We came to Cincy Dog Wizard for help with our rescue dog’s leash reactivity, stranger danger, and overall confidence. I also wanted to learn how to be a better leader and advocate for my dog. Our trainer Pam is amazing. She is knowledgeable, patient, and made training fun as she tailored our private sessions to meet our individual needs. The whole process has strengthened my relationship with my dog and improved our daily lives together. I love that Cincy Dog Wizard offers ongoing support and group classes for their graduates, we will definitely continue working with them!”
