The Dog Wizard

The Dog Wizard is a dog training company offering behavior and obedience training in Massachusetts as part of a national franchise. Its programs address issues such as separation anxiety, aggression, socialization, puppy raising and rescue rehabilitation, alongside general obedience. Training uses a balanced approach and combines work with a professional trainer in the dog’s home environment and in small groups, with the goal of a well-behaved family member who comes when called.

Half of the work is training the dog and half is coaching owners to become confident handlers. Options include private lessons, group training, puppy programs, board and train, day training for local residents and American Kennel Club training. The company’s stated aim is to keep dogs out of shelters by fixing behavior problems that training can resolve, so owners can do more with their dogs. Each dog is evaluated before a program is recommended.
