Training that’s as unique as the connection you share with your dog.

We rescued a very sweet dog that needed a lot of training. We could not have done it without Brody's Buddies. Lauren's style is calm and friendly. She brings a wealth of knowledge, but makes learning approachable and fun--for both the dog and us humans! She came to our house so that we could be armed with routine exercises, and she took him on private training excursions as well. He still walks with her pack weekly, which keeps him socialized. He absolutely LOVES her! And we do too.

Lauren the owner and operator of Brody’s Buddies is incredible at what she does. Lauren provides all her charges with guidance and a safe environment where they thrive with their dog buddies! She is also incredibly kind and loving to all those in her care. We have worked with Lauren since 2017 when our dog Beau (GSD) was not comfortable in a doggy daycare environment. He needed to be with a handler he felt safe and secure with for pet sitting and dog walks. She also helped us from the beginning with our golden retriever Zazie (starting at 8 weeks old) with training and pack walks. Lastly, she helped us integrate our most recent rescue dog Fin (street dog from Jamaica) into our home with our two other dogs (tightly bonded). She came over the first day Fin was home and helped introduce the dogs and provided us all with training. I will tell you from having been a weekly pack-walk customer for 6+ years there is literally no one better than Lauren. Lauren has always kept us well informed with pictures and updates daily whether if was for pack walks or for boarding (which we greatly appreciated). You and your pet will benefit from Brody’s Buddies. You will rest easy knowing your pet is in the best of care and your pup is going to have the time of their life being with her and all their buddies! Lauren is an all star and Brody's Buddies MN is FIVE STARS!

Our family, which includes two dogs, has been working with Lauren at Brody’s Buddies for the past two years with dog training, walking, and boarding. We have worked with several trainers. Lauren is a cut above the rest. She is, hands down, the most talented dog trainer I know. I have referred her to several people, all who feel the same way about her. My husband and I knew we had to get serious about training our dogs when we had our first child and our lives started to feel out of control. Our dogs, while very sweet, were constantly barking and demanding our attention in any way they could think of. We were so stressed! Lauren taught us that actually WE were the ones that needed training. :) She taught us how to think like a dog! She taught us how to understand our dogs and to provide compassionate obedience skills to them. Our lives are so much less chaotic than they were. If you’re considering a dog trainer, don’t hesitate to hire Lauren — just do it. She’s worth every penny and more.
