This dog was shown previously in before and after videos of which she had learned the “hold” command.
The very end of the following video displays the overall objective of one of many venues the dog will be used for……….hunting.
Consider the total picture at the end of the video of what has been cleaned up through the process of obedience training compared to the first part of the video and notice a lot has changed. Throughout training, the dog has achieved superior obedience which now bleeds over into stability at the heel side, no break from position, focused marking, holding and direct return to handler. It is now up to the owner to understand and maintain the dog’s training.
Way to go Sunny!

Meet Farley.
Farley is the largest Labrador Retriever this kennel has trained for obedience. What a horse and a bundle of powerful energy!
The owner now has the ability to use a training style that the dog understands. This dog took to the training very well and his attitude remained high spirited. The first part of the video is at four weeks of progress and shows a lot of control of the dog wanting to get ahead of stride, aka drive capping or capping the dog's drive. The second half of the video is an overall display of control.
Good boy Farley!
We have one training class left for 2024. Don't be trapped inside with a naughty dog this winter. Let us take the frustration of training out of your hands. Call us at 715-468-4924 for more information or to reserve your dog's spot.
This is why I often say our class is much more than JUST obedience. Sunny is a 15 month old female Labrador retriever.
Call us for training availability at 715-468-4924.
These pups are training individually with bumpers but a little fun hold back doesn't hurt to create better drives. At the same time you can note the dogs want the bumper and not our cat, Bubbles, who happens to show up at the most inconvenient times. Train 'em young, I say.
As we’ve mentioned in the past. Don't get stuck in the house with a naughty dog all winter. Waiting on a hardening dog makes a hardened dog.
New dog? Troubled behaviors?
Only two training classes left for the year.
Our next class starts October 7th. Call us for availability at 715-468-4924. Or visit our website at www.beaverbrookkennels.com.
These are moments of training from some of the dogs who went through the last couple of classes. If you are considering having your dog trained please call us for info.
Our next board and train class tentatively begins August 19th.

I can't say it enough, don't let your young dog get hard set and older without training. It happens quickly and is difficult for most to change poor behavioral issues. We can help! 715-468-4924
We have openings available for our June 24th training group. Call us at 715-468-4924 to reserve your spot or contact us via our website www.beaverbrookkennels.com
Hello folks,
We have a last minute opening for our May 6th, six week class. Any takers?
This is a dog that I trained in the fall of 2023 that recently came back for boarding.
As with most of my training clients who also board with us, I decided to check on the dog to see how the obedience retention was going. The owner obviously followed through with the continued maintenance training and wow, is she still spot on. Good job Athena! Good job owner!
Attention hunters and household pet owners: We aren't just a “sit and down" type obedience training kennel. The boards you are seeing in the end of the video are called place markers/or place boards. The way this kennel trains place boards is not just teaching the dog to go into a box, rather it is a tool showing the dog a location to go to on command or stay at on command.
Place markers are huge in training your dog. Once properly introduced and shaped into the dogs training regimen, your dog can easily learn control with retrieval, focus, steady on gunfire, whistle stops, recall work, household marker training, e-collar conditioning and much more.
ALL TRAINING STARTS WITH OBEDIENCE!!!!!
Our next available class is June 24th.

This is the first Belgian Malinois I have trained since I was a Sheriff K9 handler. It felt good to work with this dog, and she turned out very nice.
Our next 6 week class will start March 18. Call 715-468-4924 to reserve your dog‘s spot.
Don’t be trapped inside with a naughty dog this winter! Our last class of the season starts next month and there are a couple of spots still open. Call us today at 715-468-4924 to reserve a spot for your furry friend.
Missing the window of youth for training opportunity left in your dog over the upcoming winter months will impact the development of your dog‘s future behavior. Seasoned untrained dogs turn mentally hard and make it very difficult to train. In other words train them when their young!
Hello folks,
Our kennel is pleased to have trained over 50 dogs in the last two years. Fifty dogs may not sound like a lot to some, but it is a real number and we remain confident in the quality of our training being superior.
Our finished dogs showed significant positive changes in overall behaviors and have dramatically improved relationships with the owners. We have been told over and over that dogs came home a completely different dog. Many dogs have come in with “behavioral issues”, as the owners may say.
Since our training features a 6 week program, it has been found that the consistent structure not only teaches your dog common clear commands and sets you up for customized commands but also changes your dog’s behavior through multiple environment difficulties the dog had trouble with on prior occasion.
It has been my personal experience as a trainer that a lot of the “behavioral” issues are due to a lack of obedience. In other words, when I work with and solve behavioral issues, it ends up being obedience that was missing through confusion of the owner.
If you are on the hinge, and are considering an out of town training location (Twin Cities or close to) you may want to reconsider. I can assure you our training is not the common, and nothing you have seen before because it is not offered around our area.
Currently we are taking training requests for our next class which will start towards the end of September. Please message our site, www.beaverbrookkennels.com or call 715-468-4924.
This a future therapy dog that attended our 6 week training. The owner of this dog wanted it to go under a table on command as part of its training. So, with this request, all I needed to do was create a command for it to go underneath an object. How was this done?
A large part of the training at our kennel is “place marker” training. Place marker training is teaching a dog to go to a location. It is not just a single “place”, rather it can be multiple.
Given the proper training, dogs can learn several “markers” very rapidly. It’s the foundation of the training that takes time. Essentially, as a trainer, it is my job to paint a picture for the dog to understand, then apply the training that was put into it and “weld” them together.
In this dog’s case, after about week 4, the dog had undergone place marker training as part of our obedience package and was able to grasp the “table” command in about two 10-minute sessions.
The dog didn’t just learn to go under a table, it learned to go underneath “something” on command. I just used a table to create the presentation for the command and named the marker.
Heres a dog over 3 years old which was stubborn to begin with, we took in for our 6 week training.
This dog was from our Dec. 2022 class.
Marley, the Golden Retriever loved to heel and have his head cupped while doing so. Heeling was one of his favorites while training, and he looks pretty awesome!
This behavior was shaped well, and shows the control we can put into the dogs, which is needed for so many more commands and functions that are included in our program
We will release more unseen dogs from our class.
Don‘t let your dogs get out of control. Give us a call before they have YOU on a leash. 7154684924
