The Haggerty Family has been training dogs since 1962! Babette is carrying the legacy her dad began in 1962.
She has been Training Everyday People to Have Once in a Lifetime Dogs full time since 1989! Few trainers are born to be trainers, but Babette Haggerty was born into a family of trainers, breeders, and handlers. Her dad was Captain Haggerty, who is considered the pioneer in the field of dog training. It was said that he “made it a respected profession” and that “he did for dog training what the Be
atles did for rock n roll.”
After spending her childhood working in the family dog training school, training, walking, cleaning up p**p as well as answering the phones, Babette moved to Florida and built the most respected dog training school in Palm Beach County. She has now returned to her roots to New Jersey where she is helping families to have once-in a-lifetime dogs. Her articles have appeared in Dog Fancy and Dog World, and she has authored three books and co-authored three others, all on training. She has served on the board of the IACP and the Alliance of Purebred Dog Writers. Not just a trainer, she has presented seminars to AKC Judges on the German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois and bred and shown Belgian Malinois to their championship,as well as developed training programs for Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control. She volunteers her time to rescue groups such as Garden State German Shepherd Rescue. She has appeared on different levels of press, radio and tv, such as the LA Times, Martha Stewart and the Today Show. When she is not training the dogs of Seth Meyers, Jack Nicklaus, Jimmy Buffet or the late Senator Lautenberg, she is at home with her two children, a German Shepherd, a Standard Poodle, a Pug and a Norfolk Terrier.

So grateful for another wonderful year of training dogs! Next month I will have been training Everyday People to Once in a Lifetime Dogs for 35 years! My first student was in December 1989, a Dalmatian. What are you most grateful for this year?

Received the nicest text today. One of my students was featured in Wyckoff(NJ) Living magazine. His mom wrote and said: Thought you might enjoy this, since you helped control a lot of the crazies. He’s still a handful but light years away from what he was.

About Haggerty Dog Training: Everyone dreams of having that perfect, once-in-a-lifetime dog. But too often, the dream doesn’t match reality. Maybe your dog barks constantly, jumps on you or chews your things. Perhaps he has severe behavior issues such as anxiety or aggression towards other dogs or people. Maybe he pulls on the leash, lunges at other dogs or completely ignores your commands. Or maybe you just have a new puppy and want to make sure that none of these things ever happens to you! Regardless, if any of these sound familiar, Haggerty Dog Training can help give you the dog of your dreams.
