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 North Ridgeville, 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 North Ridgeville.

Private Dog Training Lessons

Does your dog need one-on-one training support? The Dog Wizard in North Ridgeville 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 North Ridgeville — 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 North Ridgeville, 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 North Ridgeville and strengthen the unique bond between the pet and pet parent.

Specialty Dog Training

Are you looking for a unique experience for your dog? Many of The Dog Wizard locations in North Ridgeville offer specialty classes: agility (for high-energy dogs), scent (for improving scent detection), therapy prep (for therapy work) and baby prep classes (for new parents). Classes are open to all breeds and are available at both beginner and intermediate levels.

American Kennel Club (AKC) Training

The Dog Wizard is pleased to share that our puppy program in North Ridgeville is also an AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program. This means that, after passing the program, your dog will be eligible to test for the AKC S.T.A.R. certificate. In addition to receiving certification, you and your puppy will be registered in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy records and receive a display medal.

Dog Socialization Training

Perfecting the craft of puppy socialization can be challenging, but fear not – The Dog Wizard is here to guide you! Are you ready to learn some pro tips? Begin socializing your puppy as early as possible, ideally between 3 and 12 weeks of age, by introducing them to diverse environments, unfamiliar people, other animals, dog parks, and dog daycare in a controlled manner. Ensure that your puppy training lessons are positive and stress-free. Maintain a calm demeanor and shower your dog with treats for positive interactions. Remember, patience and consistency are extremely important in this process.

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.

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.

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.
