- The last of three videos detailing our approach to building a strong foundation for Search and Rescue Dog training.
Extract from an article published by the Labrador Retriever Club USA:
“Within the Labrador Retriever breed type there are variations in body style which have evolved to suit the use of the dog, as well as the preferences of individual breeders and owners. In the United States the general public has begun to label these variations mistakenly as "English or "American" style. Perhaps a better description for variations in style is "show/conformation" or "working/field" styles.
The working/field or "American" style of dog is the label often attached to a Labrador possessing lighter bone structure and exhibiting more length of leg, a less dense coat, and a narrower head with more length of muzzle.
The conformation/show or "English" style Labrador is generally thought of as a stockier dog, heavier of bone and shorter on leg and with a denser coat, and having a head often described as "square or blocky."
However, working/field variations occur in England as well, so this description is not necessarily suitable.”
The first Labradors in the United States were imported from England in 1911.For more information about my services, check out my website: kentuckycanine.com/

I volunteer at a rescue and consider myself a tough dude, but my word at the end of this video had tears shed from my eyes. We need more compassionate people like you in dog training, the love you have for the dogs and training them is unreal. Thanks for these fantastic videos Stonnie, they truly make my day!
You made me laugh and you made me cry!!! Most of all you made me so proud and happy to know I have given my puppy the best Search and Rescue foundation training there is, so now I can take over!!!! I know I have written this before, but it bears repeating... I have done a lot of search and rescue training with my two previous dogs; German Shepherds, so I know the challenges involved. The challenges are not simply with the dog, but with the trainers themselves!!! Oh yes...and I know the SAR trainers are watching this( : D . Most are unwilling, or more likely unable to do this work with a puppy, and this is just one of the things That makes Stonnie and his training methodologies so great! This is the crucial time period when the foundation should be done to build their confidence emotionally and physically one paw step at a time and stress free. When you are searching either for a living or deceased victim on top of a rubble pile or in a boat with waves rocking it, this is the time such a foundation makes a difference!!! Thank you STONNIE DENNIS for rocking it, and making Search and Rescue Training GREAT AGAIN!!
Donna Madden and Stonnie,
To watch the training, admiration, and love of craftsmanship Stonnie puts into his part of the process of this pups lifetime of service was nothing short of amazing. I thank you all for allowing me to take this journey with you all. God Bless you all. Holmes you will do wonderful things for the betterment of man.
One of the most epic Stonnie-videos I've seen so far - just bookmarked this one to watch again, as this song, along with the scenery, is absolutely beautiful. And I totally understand you being sad to let this little Labragoat go again. Who, by now, will be an adult, but thanks to the video, we can enjoy time travel.
Oh my heart, that last part was so tender. I admire those with a calling to foster or puppy raise for the greater good.❤️🙏🐾
Really enjoy watching your dog movies. Not just very instructive, but seeing all these happy dogs, wonderfull nature etc is so satisfying. Thanks so much!!
I love the fact that you actually care for the animals
What an absolutely AWESOME video! The perfect blend of professionalism and compassion for the love and challenge of an animals optimum potential being breached. I have watched hours of your videos in anticipation og beginning my journey with my new lab next weekend when I pick him up from the breeder. Looking SO forward to applying ALL the principles I am learning from your videos. Let the journey begin!!! Thanks Stonnie for sharing your expertise and compassion for dogs.
I have a hole in my heart just watching this ending and I didn't work with Holmes. The amount to effort you put into these dogs is unreal...UNREAL. Kings to you Stonnie.
Stonnie, I've had the pleasure of owning labs for 40 years, and my girls are considered to be very well trained. You are in my opinion the best of the best, and give me inspiration at 70 to train my new Pup. Thank you. I think i saw Mr. Homes having fun last week.
Thank you for the compliment! I'm glad you like my content!
This was an enlightening series on how to environmentally socialize a pup. Looks like I have some work to do! I used to rock climb in the Red River Gorge / Daniel Boone National Forest... what a beautiful part of the country. Couldn't tell you how many times I've been through that tunnel. Do me a favor and swing by Miguel's and enjoy some awesome pizza and an Ale-8-One.
Not a single thing to dislike about this video 💕 I want to grow up to be just like you Stonnie
My favorite series.. and I don't even have a dog!
Stonnie transcends "dog training" and is really teaching us about life. Your secrets safe w/me Uncle Stonnie.
I love how he has conversations with Holmes. I talk to my dog all the time. Cryin' my eyes out. Holmsi will be famous one day. I have a lovely 2 year old black lab who I am training and I want to be better so he can be better. I am getting a puppy this winter, God willing, and want to start her off right from the get go, so I found your videos. I can see some things I'm doing right, and could improve on, etc. The variety of activities you put them through blows my mind. Nothing boring for man's best friend. Thanks!
어머나세상에나-!! 예쁨이 가득한 천사네요❤
바라만봐도 행복한미소를띄울수있게해주는 너란존재는 어쩜 그렇게나 귀엽고 사랑스럽고 예쁜거니~~🥰🥰
What you do is so beautiful!
Don't know who's more lucky, Holmes for being given such a gift of confidence and a friend he'll remember for life, or Stonnie for being blessed with receiving the love, admiration, and trust of such a fine animal. Agreed, saying farewell to such a buddy is gonna be rough, every time. Each dog digs his own hole into your heart to fit into and call their own.
I can’t believe i cried at the and of the video. I whatched your videos almost all of them in one week. I live in Germany and I cry and feel some melancholy, though I have never been to Kentucky. Thx for this beautiful song.
Holmes eyes are beautiful. I am so proud of this little guy. I couldn’t do your job. I could never let him go. His new parents are blessed with such a nice buddy Holmes. Love how you say „holmsi“, full of love.
Stonnie you are a Great guy. Keep up your work.
Greetings from Germany.

Nana Deluxe LP You are too kind! I am glad you liked the videos!
And here is my old commentary. 😊
Love the moment of respect, and that song!
You are incredibly underrated. Put in the work if you love your dog.
Great video, I’ve never seen so much sand that far from the ocean
You've done well with Mr. Holmes,he is a remarkable little guy,great job!
I so appreciate your work Stonnie! I’m touched by your work with Holmes. You’ve inspired me to keep working with my black Lab, Arlo.
Susan Ollar I’m glad you enjoyed this series!
Incredible video, especially the ending ❤️
One of my favorite series. Never did really get many views though…weird…
@@StonnieDennis
It would be so great to see a video of this guy at this time of his life 4 years later . Please consider it 🙏
Thanks stonnie 😃
You broke my heart! It really must be bitter sweet to raise a puppy, give him unique gifts, form a strong bond of love, teach him to be a good dog citizen, and then hand him over to someone else to share his life with. Very sad to lose him but you must also be a very proud pappa to do what no one else could do and send him out in the world to save lives. You are a hero, albeit a heartbroken one. You're also very special...I would have been much more selfish I think.
Love your training videos Stonnie! Lost my lab of 12 years back in January and near ready to get my next. I been enjoying and studying your training videos in preparation for a new puppy!
Oh it's in red river gorge. Yes Thought that area looked so familiar. That's the one going right threw the hill. That cave is great and the pizza place has the best wifi and pizza in the whole area.
I can relate. Bonding with a dog is probably the best relationship you can have! You did him right though. You can at least take pride in knowing the foundation you gave him is going to lead to his success.
That is exactly what Stonnie has done! I have dealt with many trainers over the years, both Search and Rescue, regular obedience and in Schutzhund/IPO. They are few and far between that have Stonnie"s abilities to read dogs to figure out how to train them!
respect, bro. we sent 8 dogs back to Guide dogs after a basic foundations of socialisation training...and were privileged to have 2 come home to us. I relate to the pain... but they make a huge difference in the world after they leave us, so for them and those who trust the pups to us, it is really worth our time and releasing them. blessings, Fiona
About to bring home our new Lab puppy and have been watching all you vids with the Labs. Love them and you make it look easy, but you also stress it takes time. You train your pups like I coach baseball and I've been doing that for over 30 years. lol
A lovely vid and thanks for sharing :-)
This is awesome stuff!
I shed a tear, too. Sweet boy. Get to CA and work with Blue! :)
great series of videos. I have a new yellow lab (4 mos old) and i have been inspired by your training and have put it in practice. Thanks for all you do. Keep up the great work.! Mississippi Ye ha
Another GREAT video!
Man, I'd be figgerin' a way to extend the axel on that kayak-cart and fix some 2-ft. bicycle wheels on it - for hauling it over those rocks! And I see that river and wonder what kinda fish I can get to dance on my line! Can't do that walkin' an' haulin', but I get to places with a boat-ramp and yank my inflatable off the tailgate and into the water - then go park and my dog helps with balance as I hobble back so we can get in. LOVED that trip through the tunnel, and I don't think there's much prettier a sight than driving those country roads! Especially come October and the trees paint-up! I've had people comment on how good my dogs are educated, and ask me if I'd train their dog... told 'em when I'm done, that'd be MY dog... that they should learn to read their K9 and educate them their own self. Gotta try and see the world through a dog's eyes and with a dog's mind - never could understand why most folks can't do that like I do. So I understand what you're talking about with going through the education-process and then having to send 'em down the road. But feel GOOD - that in the years ahead of this little boy, he's gonna help a lot of people when they need help the worst! Lost, broken limbs, or buried in a fallen building - he's gonna do his job and be happy doing it! You've blessed unknown folks by letting him go! ❤️
I really like your videos in a perspective of how you explain and method of training your dogs. I'm making small steps into SAR myself. I was hoping to see more videos of this kind, or in general when it comes to labrador training for duty!
// From Sweden
I found it. Here. Took me 2 hours. Never leave Harlan alive.
Gonna have us a buddy like that come summer when we get home. Got the SoT yak, just need the pup.....and a second yak for the missus.
Hey Stonnie, Congrats on great video formats and the fact you show the training session from start to finish and see what to do when the dog doesn't quite nail it and the way you calmly get them to try again and win!! I personally learned alot by watching the dogs your training loose concentration and why... helps me pick up the cues with my own dog. I love the fact you show it all, not just a snippet of a success. Keep doing the videos please, i think the whole approach is the best I've seen.
P.S. Any chance you can get an update on Holmes from his owner on how he is doing with Search and Rescue training now? :)
Hi it’s the gal that signed up earlier when I saw your video on Catahoula Leopard Dogs killing owner. I asked if you were in the area of Raywick, Finley Ridge, Campbellsville Marion County KY Now that you are on a lake, would it happen to be Green River Lake?? Just curious. I enjoy your videos so far, and it’s nice when you run into people familiar with the area you grew up near. Anyhow, I hope that you are having a break from the snow. God bless!
How would you introduce fishing for a kayak to a dog. Do he would not jump off if he sees your lures being thrown out or coming back to the kayak and if you bring a fish back to the kayak
I’m a fellow Kentuckian and will be starting a new SAR puppy early next year. This is all very helpful as it’s been years since I last trained a search dog. I appreciate your take on it all and look forward to trying it (well. What I can with that resources are available to me)
Nice! Don't overthink it as it is really just a matter of proper early training and socialization. Be patient, consistent, and persistent, and you will do great!
What treats do you use
I absolutely love your videos, makes me want a new puppy, my girl is twelve and I am soon to be 75 so it is a tie who sleeps more I would love you to train me and my new puppy. What kind of treat do you use?
I bet like freeze dried liver or lamb lungs or something that’s my guess
Dock understood couple words but theTone of woise and when you look dogs eyes and smiling it might get see onely your theeth and you find dog on your face in the end its predator and use wolf gind thing..
Holmes is an "English Chubby"? Based on all your other videos I didn't think the show line would make a great working dog (Search and Rescue), unless he's field line but is just as adorable as a show line?
We talk about dogs in general terms, but in reality there is a lot of variation from individual to individual.
Stonnie - can u provide a link to that song?
hello sir, i got 24 month old Lab Ret. back home which i havent tried doing basic obedience yet as i worked overseas. Planning to do it when i come back home after my contract. What would be the best approach to get him interested in basic obedience training? any good advice for late learner on basic obedience? thank you.
poloii fowgee Lots of patience!
I just lost my boy mister he looked just like him he died at 12 years old ..doctors said he was just old ..his kidneys went out...trying to find another Im in southern California
