About the Trainer
The Granny Rose K-9 Enrichment Center is a facility offering group dog training classes in a fun, humor-filled environment. They provide Beginner Obedience, Intermediate Obedience, AKC Novice, and AKC Scent Work classes, all structured as 6-week programs with weekly handouts. Trainers Bruce and Betty, who have owned dogs for over 40 years and competed extensively in obedience, rally, scent work, and conformation with their Beaucerons, lead the Beginner Obedience class. The center features a full agility course and hosts events throughout the year. Classes are held at their facility in Dixon, IL, and focus on building foundational skills, lifestyle obedience, and preparing dogs for AKC trials. They also offer dog boarding, vaccine clinics, and foster programs, making them a comprehensive resource for dog owners in the area.
The center emphasizes a positive, engaging approach with humor and community involvement, and encourages owner participation through weekly practice routines. They are actively seeking feedback to improve offerings for 2025, including potential one-on-one sessions and public playdates.
Accomplishments
Bruce and Betty have traveled the entire U.S. competing with their Beaucerons in Conformation, Obedience, Rally, Fast Cat, Barn Hunt, and Scent Work. The center’s staff hold certifications including Fear Free, CPR/First Aid, and Animal First Aid.
