We've had a lot of people ask about chatting with buddies who aren't pros with a hundred dogs in the kennel and more on the side of just a few. This made us think of our pal, Brandon Sweesy, of Northern Air Retrievers. He has a really good dog named Jones that he trained himself by watching Freddie King videos, reading and calling his breeder and you guessed it... actually training the dog in front of him. It was pretty cool to learn more about Brandon's training philosophy and how he handles his dogs in tests. We really dig into a good training discussion and we hope you enjoy it. We were pumped to find out that our new girl, Prairie, is a distant relative to Brandon's younger dog. It's funny how small this world can be, right? Check out Brandon and his dogs on his Instagram @northern_air_retrievers for some great photos and even better training tips.
