History
Established in 2020.
Owner and Training Director, John Hayes, began his dog training career a decade ago. Aside from his strides helping families train their pets in obedience professionally, his time spent researching canine behavior and competition obedience provided the opportunity to begin service dog work.
Early in his career, he was a team member in Knoxville who helped train the world’s first Addison’s Disease Alert dog. John has since gone on to train Therapy Dogs, PTSD Service Dogs, Emotional Support Animals, Tracking, Trailing and SAR, Psychiatric Support, Mobility and Autism support. He is also certified to train cancer detection dogs through the InSitu Foundation.
The Dog Wizard specializes in dog obedience, aggression rehab, & dog confidence building for lifelong success.
The team of Chattanooga Dog Wizard Trainers are IACP Professional members, certified with the AKC for Canine Good Citizen. They are certified to perform Therapy Pet evaluations and Canine First Aid and CPR.
Meet the Business Owner: John H.
I love being able to show people ways to interact with their dogs that opens a whole new world of communication and engagement. People don't get a dog expecting to have issues. They don't expect daily stress, marital issues, home damage, and headaches. What did you imagine when you got your dog? My goal is to bring that image to life and to keep dogs out of shelters.
