🐾 Kids at the Dog Park: Real Stories, Safety Risks & Smarter Solutions

Located in scenic Barnum, Minnesota, Liberty K9 Rescue Ranch is much more than just a dog park. This locally owned, family-run facility specializes in dog training, boarding, and grooming, making it a fantastic hub for local dog lovers. Their highly praised board and train programs have helped countless dogs become well-mannered, leash-trained companions, earning rave reviews from owners throughout the region.
Liberty K9 Rescue Ranch stands out as a dog-friendly destination where your furry friend won’t just be cared for—they’ll thrive. The staff is praised for their communication, professionalism, and genuine care for each dog. When boarding here, dogs enjoy open space to run, play, and exercise rather than staying in kennels, creating a social and healthy environment. The facility provides regular updates, photos, and insights about your dog’s behavior and well-being—perfect for peace of mind and keeping up with your pet’s progress while you’re away.
Liberty K9 is awesome! Very professional employees who take all their jobs serious. They treated my dogs with the utmost respect. The staff is also easy to talk to if you have any questions or concerns of your pet’s behavior. I have sent 3 of my German shepherds here for a month long off leash board and train. Best decision ever!
I have also since taken advantage of their boarding when leaving town. My dogs love it. They get to run and play, not just sit in a kennel run. When picking up your pet they tell you about your pets behavior. Whether good or bad. And where improvements are needed, if any (if one has done a previous B&T).
I have used Liberty since approx 2017 and will continue to do so in the future.
We have not done training through Liberty K9 but we just got our rough collie groomed here and I can’t recommend this place enough for that. They did a fantastic job with Sarge. The price was actually cheaper and quality was 10x better than that of PetSmart or Petco.
Sarge gets a little antsy after a groom so will update with more photos when at home ☺️
Absolutely the best place to have your dog trained and boarded. This family run business cares so much about your dogs and set them up for success. When you take them home, you have a happy and well behaved dog which makes life easier on your family to walk and play with them. I have 2 beautiful creatures who were trained at Liberty K9 and when they have your dog at their facility they keep in close contact with you and share so many pictures and videos so you can see how happy they are. I will always and forever recommend them and take my dogs there to be cared for.
Highly recommend! We sent our lab puppy up to Liberty K9 for training and he’s such a well behaved boy! They communicated with us during his stay. We saw lots of pictures on Facebook! When we picked him up, they were more than happy to answer all of our questions and did a great job explaining how to keep up on the training and set out Donny boy up for success!! Excellent experience!
I sent my one year old pug/Australian Shepard mix to the 3 week board and train program and when I picked him up he was a brand new dog! I knew I wouldn’t have the time or the tools to train him the way he deserved but I knew once he was trained I had the time to keep up on it. He is now well behaved, well mannered and listens really well! Walking on a leash before he went to boot camp was a night mare for everyone involved. Now we can go on walks and actually enjoy them! I never thought I’d have a well behaved dog and I am forever grateful for Cassandra and her team! I will be recommending Liberty K9 to everyone I know!
