TRAINING TESTIMONIALS


Maverick

Rally class with Bree was such a great idea for my dog and I.  We got to improve our use of the clicker, expand our obedience skills, and build upon our teamwork….oh, and had a lot of fun doing so!!  Though not having trained with her before, she was immediately able to address our individual strengths and made us feel comfortable and successful at our own rate of learning.  We applied our lessons to agility training and, as a side benefit, Merlin earned his Canine Good Citizen.  Her personal experience and knowledge of training and multiple dog sports helped her address my specific questions and training needs. The class handouts were useful and she was only an email away when I had questions between classes. I am taking my young pup to Bree for Puppy Kindergarten to ensure we get a good start on our teamwork.

I had to admit I was a little afraid of entering a puppy class.  I'd seen other trainers doing it and it looked like no fun for the puppies or owners.  BUT Bree makes it fun and the puppies learn amazingly fast.  By keeping it fun, light and yet still precise the puppies (and sometimes the owners) catch on very quickly.  The puppies really ENJOY it, and they are learning to be good dogs that can become family members.  Most of all it's fun and I never thought that young puppies could learn - but they are just little sponges waiting for information.  Bree teaches YOU how to communicate with your puppy so they can be good dogs, not destructive dogs!  And it's delightful to see the little light bulbs go on when your puppy gets it.    Bree keeps it enjoyable, to keep you and your puppy happy!

Axel & Rose

People laugh when I say I want to compete in obedience and agility with my two Staffordshire Bull Terriers (Axel and Rose), but Bree has made a huge difference in both of them. She knows the "terrier mentality" and easily sees the differences in my dogs' personalities and tailors her instruction to fit each dog. She packs lots of exercises into each class, explains the how & why very clearly, and is quick to praise us "trainers" when we do it right.  Bree is very good at combining a class of dogs with various skill levels into sessions where we all learn both by doing and by watching. I'm very glad I found her!

Both of my Australian Shepherds attended "Puppy Kindergarten" and "Intermediate Obedience" with Bree & Audrey.  The training that they received helped them to socialize and devlop doggie manners. They were instrumental in developing the skills that I needed to train and control my dogs. Bree customizes her classes to best fit the needs of the dogs and their owners.

We have never had a small inside dog, and we were very unsure how to properly train our new puppy.  We enlisted the services of “Pawsitive Principles Dog Training”, and Bree was exactly what we needed!!  She came to our home on a weekly basis for several weeks, training our puppy with kindness and knowledge.  She then would instruct us on the follow-up to make sure the training was working properly until her next visit.  Each time she came she worked on another command i.e. sit, stay, etc. reinforcing the training from the previous week.  In a very short period of time, we now have a well-trained, obedient dog that is a pleasure to be around, and can interact well in any given situation.

We recommend Bree very highly, she is a miracle worker!!

I can not say enough about Bree’s training as it has turned my almost 6 year old dog around.   My veterinary recommended taking her to a dog behaviorist for her issues, but I decided that what she really needed was for us to be trained on how together to over come her issues.  I then went on a search for the right place and with the help of the AKC found Bree and that is when the miracle happened.   Annie went from "Miss Bounce" to "I think I will listen to my owner after all".    We have navigated beginning obedience, intermediate obedience, rally (this was a fun way to start having some extra fun with Annie), and now we are getting ready to do have some fun with Agility. I can not say more about the program and I surely hope that before you take your dog to another trainer take him or her to Bree instead.  Thank you Bree!

Always,   Jeri & Annie the German Wirehaired Pointer

I had a lot of fears and concerns about leaving our 6 month old puppy for the first time, but Bree Beery's Board and Train facilities are very clean, safe, and well run. I was able to check in with her as much as I wanted while I was away. Our puppy got plenty of exercise and love, and imagine this: she returned home far better mannered than when we left her!

With two Pitbulls people can be very cautious of my dogs. However, with the help of our trainer, Bree, my two Pitties are making a better name for the breed.  I love the positive training methods she uses and my dogs respond so well to it.  Bree has trained Shorty since Puppy Kindergarten.  He has come from a crazy little puppy to a big boy now in Agility. Once I saw how great Shorty was doing with Bree I decided my 3 year old, Roxie, could use a little retraining herself. Roxie and Shorty love their “Aunty” Bree.  Bree is a great trainer and working in an animal hospital, I am often recommending our clients to Bree for some FUN and Positive Training.

I am already looking forward to the new sessions in Agility and Rally.  Arthur is becoming so used to us practicing every day that he seems sad and disappointed if I don't take him out training!!  That has made me realize that the most important thing we have learned is not all the specific skills you have taught us but your positive method of teaching.  Arthur loves to be trained and to meet my expectations.  With that attitude he can learn anything - if I can keep up with him - and we have a wonderful time together doing it!   This ended up being a lot of words just to say that we LOVE your classes and I truly admire your way of teaching.  I can't wait to learn more!!
