The Original BootCamp for Dogs!
Professional Dog Board and Train Programs
50 years
of experience and dedication have made us a trusted name in dog training.
​
​
Billy and Susie Wagner, Sr. began training dogs professionally in 1975 under the name “Wagner Command Dog School”, later shortened to Wagner K9 School.
Wagner K9 School was the first dog school established in the Charlotte area of North Carolina and is known as the Original Boot Camp for Dogs.
Our family-owned business also includes sons, Billy Jr. and Charles Malone, and Morressa Wagner. We believe in the power of a well-behaved and obedient dog. Our mission is to empower both dogs and their owners. Focusing on building the dog-handler relationship, our comprehensive training programs ensure your pet becomes a "good citizen," allowing you to enjoy their company, wherever dogs are welcome.

​
Your dog could live sixteen years or possibly longer. I've had obedience trained dogs since 1975 and from personal experience, opening the line of communication, through obedience training, is worth the investment — Susie Wagner
Wagner K9 School has 50 years of experience in training and canine behavior. We work with the total dog, teaching manners as well as basic commands, which are the foundation of all other advanced training.
The aggressive dog is who put Wagner K9 School on the map, with our ability to rehabilitate dogs with people, other dog and other animal aggression. Most of these dogs have been pronounced dangerous and owners have been told to have the dog euthanized by trainers and veterinarians alike. However, from spending 4 weeks with the Wagner’s over 98% have gone on to live full, happy lives with their families.
​
Wagner K9 has also experience in working with the shy dog, the fearful dog, the anxious dog, the energetic dog, the lazy dog and all dogs in between. We don’t discriminate against breeds such as the Pit Bull types, Dobermans, Rottweilers or shepherds. We love dogs of all sizes, ages and breeds.
