Dog Training for the Dogs Other Trainers Struggle With

We regularly work with dog owners throughout Beaufort County who want to enjoy walks through downtown Washington, spend time on the waterfront, or simply have guests over without worrying about barking, jumping, or reactive behavior.

Our goal is to give you a dog you can confidently include in everyday life.

Does This Sound Familiar?

Is your dog…

  • Dragging you down the street?
  • Barking or lunging at other dogs?
  • Jumping on guests?
  • Ignoring you outside?
  • Nervous around strangers?
  • Aggressive or reactive?
  • Making everyday life stressful?
 

You are not alone, and these are exactly the types of dogs we help every day.  Imagine if your dog could…

  • Walk calmly beside you
  • Come when called…even around distractions
  • Relax when guests visit
  • Go to parks, restaurants, or breweries without embarrassment
  • Ignore other dogs instead of reacting
  • Earn more freedom because they’ve earned your trust

“Before Wild Child Dog Training, Frankie had no impulse control, pulled on a leash, barked constantly, and ignored us calling him. Today, we confidently enjoy public spaces, relax at home, and have a completely transformed relationship. The ongoing alumni support is incredible, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations.” -Amanda W.
