Sadie, Pippa, Sylvya, and Lucy are all working hard on their heel commands. Sadie and Pippa are working on walking together while Lucy and Sylvya were working on passing each other. #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia

Freyja was practicing her down-stay at One Loudoun! She did so well with distractions walking by her. She remained focused on her job. #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia #obedience #goldenretriever #doglover #oneloudoun

Double dog heel with Pippa and Sadie at Home Depot! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #obedience #northernvirginia #homedepot

Social for the 15 day trains! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #obedience #confidencebuilding

Freyja was working on being calm at Lowe’s! Not only was she practicing walking calmly through a new environment, she worked on passing another dog! She is doing great! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia #obedience #ConfidenceBuilding #doglover #goldenretriever

Sadie was working on her place command on random objects! She is learning to get on top of new objects such as playground equipment! Great job Sadie! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #NorthernVirginia #obedience #confidencebuilding

Katie is working on her tricks! When she is nervous, she likes to roll on her back into a submissive position. So today we worked on changing that behavior into a complete roll that can be done on command to build her confidence! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia #obedience

The 15 day trains are working on their walking skills. They are all learning the heel command which gives them a job to do on their walks instead of worrying about what’s going on around them. #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia #obedience

This was Pippas first time learning to walk nicely on a loose leash! Progress still needs to be made (given this was her first walking session) but this is a huge jump from where she first started, pulling hard on the other end of the leash. Right now she is working on paying attention to who is walking her! #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #northernvirginia #obedience #newyear2025

Penny was hanging out at One Loudoun and the Village at Leesburg yesterday! She was perfecting all of her skills around many distractions! Great job Penny! #thedogwizardchantilly #newyear2025 #obedience #dogtraining #northernvirginia #doglover

🎉 The board & train dogs are wishing everyone a Happy New Year’s Eve! 🎉 There’s no better way to start the year than doing what we love most—helping dogs and their families thrive! Here’s to new beginnings, fresh goals, and another year full of wagging tails and training success. 🐾✨Happy New Year, everyone! 🥂

Lulu did such a great job on her walk! She was focused on me rather than on dogs and people passing her! Lulu is on the tail end of her board and train program. #thedogwizardchantilly #dogtraining #obedience
