Behavior Modification & Dog Training in Brunswick

Florida & Georgia Dog Parents: Are You STILL Struggling with Dog Training Issues?

  • 🚶‍♂️ Embarrassing leash reactivity that turns every walk into a stressful event. Oh, the drama!

  • 🏞️ The guilt of missing out on hikes, adventures, and outdoor fun—the whole reason you got a dog in the first place!

  • 🐾 Feeling left out of dog-friendly activities because your pup just won’t behave in public.

  • 😩 Trying every training method but still struggling with the same issues.

At Sunshine K9 Training, we help dog owners achieve real, lasting results through expert guidance, structured training, and ongoing support. While no training guarantees perfection, we promise to equip you with the tools and knowledge needed for long-term success.
 

Behavior issues like fear, anxiety, and aggression take time and consistency to address—there’s no quick fix. Our programs are designed to build clear communication and reliable behavior, but progress depends on your follow-through after training.
 

Customized Support for Complex Cases
Behavior modification requires specialized care. These programs are tailored to your dog’s unique needs and include more intensive support than standard training. We ask that you keep open communication with us—don’t wait for things to escalate. We’re here to help every step of the way.

What Clients Are Saying ABOUT OUR DOG TRAINING PROGRAMS:

five star review paws
Charlotte the golden retriever happily sits on the place cot during an obedience dog training session.

Cassie A.

"I want to give a huge thank you to Lynsey with Sunshine K9 Training! We got our diva pup, Charlotte back today from a 3-week board and train program and we can't sing Lynsey's praises enough. Her dedication, love for dogs, and her patience with the humans who have no idea what they're doing is incredible and I would recommend her to anyone.

Lynsey met with us several times to make sure we were comfortable and we are so impressed by what we've seen in even just a short three weeks. If you have a new puppy or dog that needs some training and guidance in the ATL area, check out Lynsey!"

Dakota the German Shepherd dog watches kids on the playground during a confidence building dog training session

Bethany P.

"Our German Shepherd puppy, Dakota, had many challenges with barking, strangers, walks, delivery people, etc. due to being raised during quarantine and only being around our family. Lynsey had her for over 3 weeks and she is now able to walk with zero pulling, can relax and be in the down position even with distractions, and is overall a much much easier dog for us to handle. It is pretty much a guarantee that without this training, Dakota would have bitten someone or hurt a deliver person. We really appreciate everything we have learned with Lynsey and highly recommend her."

Kira the pitbull engages with her owner during a walk through the neighborhood

Steven K.

"She taught Kira in 5 minutes. That was the easy part. She had Kira in heel position like it wasn't anything new to her in a couple of minutes. My shoulders have been saved! And I would feel so much more comfortable about kene and the boys taking her for a walk without the fear of kira breaking away. The information and time Lynsey took to give it and show us how to apply it was eye opening. And the knowledge that my family and dog can go out safely together without needing me there is invaluable. And great for my shoulders."

Areas of Service:

No dog or human is too far! Sunshine K9 Training is based in Brunswick, Georgia, providing expert dog training services throughout the Golden Isles, Jacksonville, and surrounding beach communities. Our board and train programs, obedience training, and puppy training are designed to help dogs and their owners thrive. We also offer virtual dog training, so no matter where you are in the world, we can help!

Our company started in 2019, with Lynsey training dogs and their owners one-on-one in Atlanta before returning to the coast to bring top-tier dog training to Brunswick and the surrounding areas. Today, Sunshine K9 Training remains intentionally small, personal, and hands-on. Lynsey is the trainer behind every program, the person answering your calls and emails, and the one working directly with your dog throughout the training process.
 

Rather than operating as a large-scale facility, we focus on maintaining a real home environment where dogs are integrated into everyday life and learn to navigate the same situations owners struggle with at home. This allows us to provide individualized attention while helping dogs develop practical skills that carry over into the real world.
 

Our specialty is helping owners work through problem behaviors while also being proactive in preventing them before they grow into larger issues. While we’re proud to be an independent, women-owned and operated business, we also believe in collaboration and are always happy to refer owners to other trusted trainers when we believe another program may be the better fit for their goals.
