Testimonials

“Sara is an exceptional trainer. She possesses extensive knowledge and consistently goes above and beyond to assist the dogs she trains. As we approached the end of our training sessions, my dog began exhibiting reactivity issues. Sara continued to provide valuable guidance and support in helping me address these new challenges.”
– Chase Hughes

“We enrolled Percy in the three week ‘board & train’ & Hannah was his trainer. From the time we dropped him off, she sent texts & pics & videos of his progress & we watched him make HUGE strides in his training!! They are 100% on their game & it’s obvious that they love dogs & working with them. We are absolutely thrilled with how his behavior & performance has changed!!”
– Charlie Whitt

“We started working with The Dog Wizard because our two dogs, Copper (Heeler) and Tucker (Mini Aussie), were having serious issues getting along… Sara has given us the tools, knowledge, and hope to keep building toward even more success. We are an ongoing case and will continue to use The Dog Wizard for any and all training needs.”
– Lissa Beck
