Puppy Training Programs

Puppies are absolute bundles of joy teeming with boundless energy as part of their playful nature. This can be entertaining but small, seemingly unnoticeable problems can lead to long-term challenges like chewing or nipping that carry over into adulthood. At The Dog Wizard in Glen Allen, our thorough puppy training covers everything needed to manage these behaviors. Our courses teach vital puppy skills to help them mature into balanced adult dogs. Examples of these critical skills include following commands, walking on leash, and proper social skills.

Private Dog Training Lessons

If your dog benefits from more individualized coaching, The Dog Wizard in Glen Allen offers custom private sessions. First, our trainers closely observe your dog to understand its habits. Next, we establish a training plan made just for them. These private lessons are available at your home or at our Glen Allen facility—whichever setting feels best for your dog and you.
