Brooks Canine Training Services

Brooks Canine Training Service offers several training programs. In-home dog training provides instruction at your residence, addressing unique behavioral problems and covering basic on-leash to advanced off-leash obedience.

Residency training allows your dog to stay with the trainer for 5 to 10 days for basic on-leash obedience or 21 days for advanced off-leash. These board and train programs teach commands like Sit, Heel, Down, Come, and Place, with built-in stays and proofing around distractions.

Upland hunting dog training is a complete program for pointing breeds, typically taking three months. It covers basic obedience, steadiness to wing and shot, stopping to flush, and backing/honoring other dogs. Behavioral consultations are also available, along with specialized services for hunting dogs like trained retrieve and field obedience.

They offer in-home obedience training where they travel to your residence to address unique behavioral issues, with programs ranging from basic on-leash to advanced off-leash obedience.

Residency training is also available, where your dog stays with them for 5 to 10 days for basic on-leash obedience or 21 days for advanced off-leash. These board and train programs are ideal for owners lacking time or patience, teaching commands like Sit, Heel, Down, Come, and Place, with built-in stays and proofing around distractions.

For upland hunting dogs, they provide gun dog training for all pointing breeds and ages. This comprehensive program takes a dog from initial exposure to birds and gunfire to being steady to wing and shot, stopping to flush, and backing/honoring other dogs, typically taking three months. Additional services for hunting dogs include addressing behavioral problems like gun shyness and teaching trained retrieves using humane methods, as well as field obedience with voice and whistle commands.
