Levi absolutely loved this structured socializing hour and had a blast. On top of making a new doberman bestie, we also got a lot of training tips and advice from the trainer, Charisma. We even worked on a little loose leash training and a new trick called "place." I wasn't expecting so much for only $10! After our first social hour, Levi became the most loving puppy ever! What was once an energizer bunny is now a chill and cuddly K-9. I don't know what magic they did to my dog but I highly recommend bringing your puppy here!! I truly wish I didn't spend all my money on another training business because I would've loved for Levi to do their day training program. I really hope they have an adult dog social hour in the future. Levi is rapidly outgrowing the rest of these puppies and would love an adult doggy date.

Check in was efficient after an employee took them back I never got any updates while I was away. It would seem to be an easy text to assure me that they were safe and doing well. A picture or two would have been welcomed. When I asked how they did the person taking my money said "fine". That s didn't settle for me. The price charged was a lot and I couldn't afford all the extras like play time with the other dogs for $20+ per day per dog so I could see them play on a camera. I thought that would be part of boarding. Not here. It is a beautiful building and location but I won't be bringing them to this place again unless they offer more services with boarding. And I had to pay a holiday bonus charge for 5 of the days for each dog.

I joined with WCDT for puppy training with my little guy Odin. I wanted a trainer specifically that…read moredidn't soley rely on shock collar training due to the small size of my dog (as well as I knew I would not be comfortable following through with that type of training at home). From my first conversation, this decision was never met with an issue in our communications which was my reason for moving forward with training my pup with this fabulous duo. There was great communication, and lots of post regarding my Odin's progress between in person visits. My wants in training were clearly defined, discussed and implemented over his in-stay with the facility. I had some reservations with my tiny 3lb spoiled puppy with his paw lotion, eye wipes and holiday themed attire amongst giant working dogs at first; but it was shortly deemed irrelevant as he decided he was just a big dog in disguise disputing my attempts otherwise lol! I am very grateful for the leadership, knowledge and help WCDT has given myself and my pup. Taking on a new puppy was not part of my 2025, and I am very appreciative of the advice and knowledge extended with the program offered. (As well as the minor therapist sessions in listening to me talk about my dog that had recently passed; I appreciate that more than I can express.) I would 100% recommend!

I was referred to Wild Child from our local PetSmart. I inquired through email for their Stay and Train program as I wanted my dog to be boarded but also not forget his training or pick up bad habits. My dog stayed here for 5 days. I obsessively stalked their Instagram for updates as they post cute videos of my dog once a day. I can tell he was well taken care of and so happy to be there. Upon pickup, I felt like my dog was a new boy! They worked on him with door manners and he doesn't bolt out the door. My other concern was jumping on people. We passed by a man and my dog actually sat down right in front of him and got lots of pets! I was so impressed!! My dog also seemed more relaxed. He was a hyper furball who needed to be up and running 24/7 before I dropped him off at Wild Child. Now he's okay with laying down and chilling. He is also fine with taking naps in his crate now! He used to bark for hours on end when I crate him during the day. I can't wait to take him back. My dog seemed very sad to leave this facility and I'm sure he would be so thrilled to return. Thank you for taking great care of my furbaby.

I know that is normal ,but what wasn't normal was her reactions. As she tried to drink water, she would stop as if someone was touching her. She was clearly not comfortable standing and walking. This continued all night and even as she tried to eat (she usually inhales her food). The next day all these actions continued. Upon inspection she had been trimmed (shaved actually) around her anus and also on the bridge of her nose. It got to the point of being all red like a diaper rash. She was obviously in pain. We took pictures to document the areas.That is when we decided to back to the spa. We returned to the groomer on 5/19/2022. When I questioned the groomer as to how long she had been a groomer, she said 3yrs. I showed her the bridge of her nose first. She looked at me confused and said what?????? What???? I said look at it, it's red!!!! I didn't do that!!!! We'll I certainly didn't.. then to her anal area, it was raw an red all over a 2-3"area. Again what!!!! She said she didn't have time for this and stood in the hall doorway. The supposed manager(who was behind the desk during this encounter)stepped in looked at the area an said sorry, what do you want me to do!!! I said if she doesn't know how to trim Golden Doodles be honest with your clients she shouldn't be allowed. She really had no explanation .. I asked for the owner was told it was the veterinarian Dr. Ridgefield next door. I went directly over to the next building and asked to see the Dr., the receptionist had been informed I was coming, and quickly said he was at lunch 1-2. I waited over an hr. with my dog in the reception room. At approx. 2:20 I was brought into an examine room. I explained to the tech what had happened. She looked, said nothing and Dr. Ridgefield came in. as owner of the pet spa and a vet I explained to him the situation. He tried to look at her, but his hands were trembling so much ,he asked for assistance from his tech. I was told "dogs don't always stay still". I know that. They also can't be sheered too close in 2 different areas either!! I previously was fortunate to adopt a greyhound for 11of her 13yrs. I know how abused animals act. He claimed his groomer was good, and never had a complaint before!! That doesn't mean it didn't happen. The physical rawness of the area's were from where they had to drain her anal sacks Dr. Ridgefield explained!!!!!! That was never even an issue and never told to me. This is the 1sttime in her 3 1/2 yrs has she been returned to me with rawness on her nose and bottom. He sat there and looked at me and said "what do you want me to do?' I said obviously your groomer needs more training, no dog should endure this EVER. I said if that is how You feel You should not be a caregiver to animals. Maybe you should get out of the BUSINESS!!!!! Animals care should come 1st. I told him he was rude an ignorant!!! Actually he was acting like a pompous ass. HE REALLY DIDN'T CARE. I left very upset. I highly suggest anyone considering taking their animals to Dr Ridgefield's for vet visits or his other business Pet SPA 1804 South Glenburnie road New Bern N C PLEASE think twice. Ours animals are our responsibility, there care is in our hands. I can't believe how this can EVER take place or be allowed. WE are the voices for our pets!!!!!!
