In this powerful episode of Love n’ Business, we sit down with Carter Wilde, the visionary behind Wild Acres – one of Baltimore County’s most respected dog training and boarding facilities. Carter’s path wasn’t easy. In his early 20s, he faced the fight of his life against addiction. In 2012, he got clean – and that decision became the turning point for everything that followed.
Today, Carter runs a 20-acre training and boarding facility, has launched his own dog gear product line, and has become a sought-after voice in both the dog training world and the local business community.
Carter opens up about:
-
The moment sobriety sparked his entrepreneurial fire
-
The surprising similarities between training dogs and building better human habits
-
Why replacing bad habits – not just breaking them – creates lasting change
-
How becoming a father redefined his leadership and life goals
-
The hard-won business lessons from buying and transforming an aging kennel into a thriving operation
Whether you love dogs, are chasing big goals, or are rebuilding after life’s setbacks, Carter’s journey will push you to think bigger and work smarter.
