About The Dog Wizard – Dog & Puppy Obedience Training Cincinnati
A balanced-method franchise location
The Dog Wizard Cincinnati operates from 1411 Sycamore St in downtown Cincinnati. It's owned by the Clegg Family, described as having over 40 years in breeding, showing, and training dogs (with a background in Golden Retrievers and Kuvasz), and the lead trainer and business manager is Cranston Blanks, who previously opened a Dog Wizard franchise in Columbia, SC.
Method, team, and services
The site describes "balanced training techniques" and "results-based obedience training," emphasizing helping dogs make better choices and stay engaged in distracting environments rather than just learning commands. Services include board-and-train, private lessons, group classes, puppy training, and specialty training, with lifetime support access. The roster lists several trainers, one of whom, Rachel Williamson-Witzel, carries credentials including CPDT-KA, CTDI, AACE, and CCFC. Facility-based with some mobile/in-home options noted across the franchise network. A reasonable fit for owners who want a balanced approach with a structured board-and-train option and a multi-trainer team.

In just two weeks, David helped make a remarkable difference. Through positive training techniques, clear direction, and consistent guidance, he was able to significantly reduce her anxiety and improve her behavior. His patience, knowledge, and connection with dogs are evident in the way she responds to him.
I am amazed by the progress we've already made and am excited to continue moving forward with her training. If you're looking for a skilled, compassionate, and effective dog trainer, I highly recommend David Sanders and The Dog Wizard.
What truly sets Pam apart is the structure and clarity she provides. She didn’t just train Milo – she taught us how to support him, giving us practical exercises, routines, and clear guidance tailored to our needs. Her approach is patient, thoughtful, and highly effective.
We’re truly grateful for everything she’s done. Milo is a happier, more confident dog, and our walks have completely transformed thanks to Pam.
