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

The Dog Wizard Woodlands builds real-world confidence by training dogs across a range of settings – parks, retail centers, and neighborhood streets – rather than just at home. The owner personally handles complimentary consultations with a no-pressure approach, even for senior rescue dogs, and the team includes a trainer regarded as a true behaviorist for more complex cases. Free Saturday graduate classes keep support going after the program ends, and the location serves both The Woodlands and neighboring Tomball, extending its reach across the wider community.

Our Take

The Dog Wizard Woodlands is a locally owned franchise of The Dog Wizard, serving The Woodlands and the surrounding North Houston communities. Owners Robert and Sandy Norris run the location, and most training happens where your dog actually lives and misbehaves: your home, your street, your neighborhood.

The team trains with a balanced approach. Rather than committing to one tool, the trainers are well versed in a range of them, from food rewards to collars to remote collars, and they help you choose what you are comfortable with and what fits your dog.

Head trainer Allison Jackson brings over a decade of experience working with animals, with certifications in dog behavior and puppy training. Trainer Elijah Guevarra specializes in basic obedience and reactivity, and trainer Ciara Napps brings seven years working specifically with dogs and a deep rescue and shelter background.

Whether you have a new puppy, a rescue with baggage, or a dog whose reactivity has made walks miserable, every client starts with a free evaluation and a plan built around the dog in front of them. Graduates get Lifetime Support, meaning ongoing group classes for the life of your dog, which is why so many of their reviews come from people who kept showing up long after the program ended.
