Pricing Summary

The Dog Wizard Charlotte does not use a one-size-fits-all pricing model. After a free evaluation, each dog owner team receives a customized program designed to fit their specific needs. Due to this individualized system, pricing varies. Clients are encouraged to call to set up an evaluation to discuss pricing.

How to Get Started!

To begin with The Dog Wizard Charlotte, clients can schedule a free evaluation. Most locations offer the convenience of coming to the client’s home for this evaluation. During the evaluation, trainers meet the dog and owner, discuss training goals, and help find a suitable program. The evaluation also assesses the dog’s specific needs, considering if it’s a puppy (under 6 months), an adult (over 6 months), or has behavior issues.
