History
For four generations the Haggerty Family has been involved in the joy of training, breeding, raising, showing, and handling man's best friend. It began with Great Grandfather Haggerty and his show Boston Terriers and Grandpa Healy's Irish Setters.
Then in 1962, Captain Haggerty, began Captain Haggerty's School for Dogs in Bronx, New York. The Captain has left behind a legacy that forever changed the dog training profession. It has been said that he was the "man who trained the trainers and made dog training a respected profession". Many modern methods and techniques used today were developed by the Captain.
Shortly before his death, he had been called "The Last Real Dog Trainer in the World." Today the school and his legacy is being carried by his only child, Babette Haggerty-Brennan and her husband, Gordon Brennan.
