About the Trainer

What’s Unique About The Dog Wizard Akron, In Their Words

The Dog Wizard Akron stands out for its collaborative approach to tough cases, with trainers consulting other specialists and even bringing a dog in for a day of observation to get a fuller picture before building a plan. Training goes beyond the home, too – sessions at real stores like Lowe’s help dogs learn to handle everyday distractions like carts, crowds, and other animals. With two well-established trainers on the team and program lengths ranging from a few focused sessions to several weeks, the location can fit everything from quick refreshers to full behavioral overhauls.

Our Take

The Dog Wizard Akron offers private lessons, day training, board and train stays, and dedicated puppy training, with every trainer on the team schooled in balanced training methods. The location takes a collaborative approach to tough cases, with trainers consulting other specialists and sometimes bringing a dog in for a day of observation before building a plan.

Training moves beyond the home too, with sessions held at real stores like Lowe’s so dogs learn to handle everyday distractions like carts, crowds, and other animals in public. Two well established trainers, including Beth Skove, work with program lengths ranging from a handful of focused sessions to several weeks, so the team can fit anything from a quick refresher to a full behavioral overhaul.

Each program begins with a free evaluation to go over a dog’s history and set expectations before training starts.
