Sara Brueske November 2019

I'm super excited to be bringing the amazing Sara Brueske back to New Zealand to run some workshops, and also help run the first-ever Up Dog Challenge Disc competition.

Sara's seminars, and classes have added so many tools that I use every day to my training toolbelt, and her relaxed personality fit's in so perfectly in New Zealand! The 2018 seminars were a fantastic fun, friendly, and motivating weekend.


Sara Brueske has been training dogs for over 15 years, and has experienced a large variety of breeds and sports during that time. Having graduated as a Karen Prior Academy Certified Training Partner in 2011, she jumped into the professional dog training world. Sara believes in positive reinforcement not only for dogs but for their handlers as well. Her biggest joy is watching a handler and dog become partners and grow as a team. Currently, she competes in the sports of disc dog, agility, dock diving, mondioring as well as being a trick dog enthusiast. Sara and her dogs demonstrate the sports of disc, agility and dock diving in over 300 dog sports shows for the public each year at the Purina Farms in Grey Summit, MO and they compete nationwide in the US. Having recently re-entered the competition disc world Sara and her dogs earned the titles of 2016 and 2017 UpDog International Freestyle Champion as well as placing on the podium twice with her young Papillion in the 2018 UpDog International Finals. One unique note about Sara is that she owns dogs from a variety of breeds and origins ranging from a scruffy-faced shelter mix to Belgian Malinois. Currently, she is developing her Australian Koolie breeding program and has a special interest in early puppy development and raising puppies for sports. Rescue is a large part of Sara's life and she stays active in this community by fostering, transporting, and helping dogs in need.
