Instructor

Brooke Benjamin, co-founder and owner of Benjamin Farms, has been competing in agility since she was 10 years old and teaching agility since 2014. Today, Brooke prides herself in her ability to teach a large range of dog agility levels. But most of all, loves to teach the foundation levels and behavior-specific skills. From 2016 to 2023, Brooke taught at facilities in the Twin Cities where her sport puppy and novice dog program was developed. Since moving to western Wisconsin, she has now brought her program home.

Brooke brings a unique skill set to her dog training programs, as her education has been greatly focused on veterinary canine rehabilitation and conditioning. In her dog agility program, you can expect Brooke to always prioritize the health and well-being of each dog and to customize training exercises to be both physically and mentally appropriate. When asked about her training philosophy, she likes to tell her students that she always aims to meet every team where they are at while keeping their goals a strong priority. She believes in a strong and thorough foundation in order to set both the handler and dog up for success in the long run. Brookes utilizes a very large variety of agility training methods and systems and does not use a one-size-fits-all approach. Each team is coached as an individual.

When not teaching dog agility, Brooke continues to work as a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) and Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CCRP) at a local veterinary hospital and co-owns K-9 in Motion, LLC.
