TAMING THE WILD;
What does that mean?
DID YOU KNOW, your dog’s approach to the world is guided by instinct, and behavioral mechanisms passed down from the wolf?
WAIT, WHAT???
YES! Today’s domestic dog is a not so distant relative of the gray wolf. In fact, dogs and wolves still share a perfect pair of 39 chromosomes, and as with humans, all behavior is anchored in the chromosomes of the individual, making biology and behavior inseparable.

At Taming the Wild, we keep this essential, scientific fact at the forefront of all our training programs. We create behaviors in ways that your dog quickly understands and accepts. By doing so, the spirit and vitality of the "wild" that exists in all dogs are nurtured and safeguarded.
WHO IS TAMING THE WILD??
The training programs at Taming the Wild were developed by Internationally known master trainer, Bryan Bailey. Bryan continues to lead his incredible group of professional and apprentice trainers at Taming the Wild on a daily basis.

Raised in Fairbanks, Alaska, Bryan grew to appreciate the wildness of the land and its abundant wildlife. In particular, he developed a fondness for the gray wolves that roamed the vast mountain ranges and forests near his home. Under the guidance of a Special Forces Survival Instructor, he spent years studying the social interactions of wolves in their packs and discovered that, beyond obvious physical similarities, there were also behavioral similarities between the wolves and the sled dogs that were his family's pets.

Today, Bryan is a nationally-recognized, award-winning author, dog behaviorist, dog aggression expert, canine pharmacotherapy behaviorist, and nationally syndicated radio show host. With over forty years of education and experience studying wolves and other predators, Bryan has become a Master at understanding how nature has influenced the inner workings of the canine mind. Taking his cue from nature, Bryan utilizes her lesson plan to shape the behaviors in our dogs that are necessary for them to conform to our human existence. By doing this, and accepting the dog for the domestic wolf that it is, Bryan and his team produce a dog that responds to his owner's commands with not only steadfast reliability, but with the spirit and vitality of the wolf.
As Seen On:
Bryan has been featured on
CNN, FOX & FRIENDS, SIRIUSXM RADIO, TALK OF ALABAMA, WREG TV-3, AND IN MANY PUBLICATIONS, INCLUDING DOG WORLD, AT HOME MID-SOUTH TENNESSEE, BLOOM MAGAZINE, HOSS MAGAZINE, SHEKNOWS, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, AND THE MIAMI HERALD. VETERINARIANS, DOG OWNERS, AND CELEBRITIES SUCH AS JOHN MELLENCAMP, JAMES FITZPATRICK, THE LATE JUNIOR SEAU, JULIO JONES, AND MANY OTHERS HAVE EAGERLY SOUGHT OUT HIS SERVICES.

FOR 
THE LIFETIME OF YOUR DOG!
Before and After Taming The Wild Board & Train:
Do you have to lock your dog away in the laundry room or its crate every time you have guests over just to protect them from obnoxious jumping, barking and basically being mauled by your dog? Never do that again after TTW board & train! Finally, you will be able to allow your dog to enjoy the party! This participation enables your dog to get the socialization and exposure it desperately needs to learn how to conform to the human world!
Does your dog take EVERY opportunity to BOLT out the front door and terrorize the neighborhood, delivery drivers and children playing in their yards? NOT ANY MORE! Allow your dog to politely greet people at your front door without the stress or worry that he will run away!
Are you tired of being dragged down the sidewalk by your dog? Or worse… are you worried your dog will pull you down or out into the street? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to WALK your dog with a LOOSE LEASH draped over your pinky finger?? It can happen and IT WILL HAPPEN after a TTW Board & Train Program!
Imagine smiling every time you see your dog because YOU KNOW they are the loyal and loving companion you always wanted. In fact, this is exactly why we do what we do. Our primary goal is to give you the relationship with your dog you have always dreamed of having!
We Will Enable You to Have a
Dream Relationship with Your Dog!
YES, your dog can be that obedient dog that sits, stays, ignores other passing dogs, and heels at your command. 
How do we know? We have trained tens of thousands of dogs to do just this.

David Kimler
Truly amazing transformation! My 4 month old border collie just finished Basic Training. I am so pleased with her training. She is a well-mannered, obedient, and happy dog..a companion I can take anywhere. I can enjoy her on a whole different level. I cannot say enough about the trainers. WOW.
Bernie McCune
I highly recommend Taming the Wild. We have a very energetic and loving lab that just needed the correct guidance to make all of our lives more fun. The trainers are very knowledgeable and caring. I was so amazed when I went to pick him up after two weeks of training!! The techniques they use are spot on and Bowman learned quickly. We are continuing to work with him at home and can now control him during outings around other people and dogs.
Christe' Harris-Leech
I cannot say enough positive things about Taming the Wild. The experience was top-notch-- excellent customer service and follow-through. They returned to us a manageable dog who maintained his sweet spirit. I highly recommend them!
Frances Sewell
Louie was an extremely excitable puppy. He is still a happy puppy but has learned his commands, follows them and is a joy to have at home now. He sleeps in his crate without crying or barking. His place/stay has made meal times wonderful. I am so happy I chose Taming the Wild for Louie. It was fantastic. Even better, they taught me how to do all the commands and I have the ebook to review if I need to refresh how to do the commands correctly. Great job.
Chris Harder
Incredible place with Incredible people! My pup came back the same pup with discipline! My wife and I are extremely happy! Thanks Taming the Wild!
Lance Oliver
This is the best program in the mid-south area. My son's dog went for 3 weeks and I could not believe all the things he learned. Also, you may just want to go visit Taming the Wild in person. Once you see this place, and meet the people that work there, you will know that this is the only place to take your dog. I loved it, my kids loved it and I know our dog, Alpha, loved it. It’s worth every dollar.
Jonathan Hagerman
Very friendly, very patient, very kind. They treat your dog like it's their own and it's obvious they care about all that come through their door. The transformation in Winnie is amazing and they've given us the tools to continue and maintain it. If you're looking for guidance with your most precious of family members then bring them here.
Jane Pirani
We sent our 7 month old springer spaniel for the 2 week basic training program and added on the additional week for come when called. It is amazing the transformation in LJ. I had tried to train him on my own and was not having much success. He is such an obedient dog now. The place command is wonderful. I can take him to my office with me and put him on his mat with the place command and he stays there until I free him! People come in and he does not leave his mat. He has come every time I call. He used to steal things and then run off with them making it impossible to catch him. Now, he comes every time. I highly recommend Taming the Wild.
Sarah Wilbourn Gallagher
We picked up our 5 month old Golden Retriever yesterday. For the first time in months, my 4 year old son could finally give her a big kiss on the head without being jumped on. Penny learned every cue perfectly during her training and we are working on transitioning her behaviors at home. Before her training, she was so rambunctious that our young kids couldn't play with her. After only 2 WEEKS at Taming the Wild we are relieved, impressed, and delighted with what is now possible for our pup and our family. Thank you so much!

Eric Lomas
This place and its staff have made such a difference for our dog. Not simply because of how well behaved she is after her training sessions but in how my wife and I see her and appreciate her for what she is - a descendant of wolves, still wild and beautiful in her own way, and wonderfully not human. This is refreshing in a world that wants us to see dogs as little people. Thank you so much for helping to make our pup a closer member of our family/pack.

“Taming the Wild” – you got it, our fur-baby, the Unsinkable Molly Brown (a/k/a Molly) was WILD! At 5 months old she needed to be taught how to behave around the house, in public, and especially with other people and other fur-friends. To the rescue came the Nationally Recognized Dog Trainers at “Taming the Wild”. The trainers are loving, caring, and have an eye for detail training dogs. Molly spent two weeks learning Basic Behaviors – Taming the Wild Basic Training (on leash) program. She successfully learned how to sit, down, heel, place, stay, and off. Not only did the trainers teach Molly, but they taught us to handle her. There is a saying that goes, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” Well… “Taming the Wild” taught both a Fur-Mama and Fur-Papa new tricks! I am forever grateful. “Taming the Wild” has made a real difference in our world --- if you have a fur-family member that needs the absolutely best training around, go to Taming the Wild in Memphis and see for yourself! You won’t be disappointed!

I am completely amazed! Our experience with Taming the Wild is beyond 5 stars. Our Baby GSD just completed her Basic Training Program with Ashley and it brought tears to my eyes! First of all, the knowledge and wisdom that Ashley clearly has, and the passion she has for these animals is quite evident. I love the fact that they sent us information and videos to watch and learn before we picked her up. Ashley did an excellent job with teaching us exactly what to do so that we felt confident that we could follow through with everything our Emma had learned and she helped us anticipate and problem solve the things we would experience when we got her home! Our baby is a different dog because of the love, care and training she received at Taming the Wild, and we are more confident and in control, because of this training. Every person we met showed us that she was in excellent hands! (And they even sent this overly obsessive Mom pictures!) my rating is 10 stars! Ashley....you are the bomb!!!
