As we kick of 2025 with ducks, or lack there of on our minds, we’d like to thank all of our clients, friends and supporters for a great 2024 year! While it was a light year for us, we picked up some passes, titles, left some passes on the table, but the young dogs that we focused on this year are coming back and we are reloading for next year.

Everyone is off hammering away during duck season and we are hearing great reports, especially from our young guns in their first season.

2024 Highlights

HRC - 22/27 w/ 2 new HRCH’s

Masters - 12/15

Qualifier - made the 4th series in our first ever qualifier with HRCH Tallie

The last two of this years crew went home today. It’s a little bitter sweet. We had a young crew of dogs and the largest crew we have ever had. It was a stressful, busy year. with dogs in all stages of training. Some clicked right along, some took longer than others, but managing different crews and going at each dogs pace paid off in the end.

Some of the highlights for 2024:

Qualifiers:
- Ran Tallie in her first Q making it all the to the 4th, ran a beautiful trial until the winger hide blocking a pipe half way to the long gun was too tempting for her to break down on 🤦🏻‍♂️

Masters:
- Our Masters crew went 13/19
- Tallie 5/5
- Dyson 4/4
- Leo, Jake, and Georgia all picking up passes

HRC:
- 2 newly titled HRCH dogs (Dyson & Leo)
- 21/26 in HRC
- 3 clients ran their first ever hunt tests in both Seasoned & Started

We can’t thank all of our clients enough for your trust and support this year! Our big dogs did great and we have a promising crew of young dogs who’s careers have only begun. Bright future for all of them.

Ki & Topper are still training and learning the ropes this winter and their time to shine will be in 2025.

Trace and Copper are headed home for duck season after a graduation hunt at Mallard Limit to learn the ropes before the game time. Both owners and dogs learned something today and got a lot of real world experience before opening day!

If you have a puppy about to go home for their first season, a Shooting Preserve like Limit is the perfect way to bust a learning curve on a dog. Fast action, guaranteed kills (if you can shoot) and about as stress free and controlled environment as you can get. They offer “training” that as trainers we simply can’t replicate anywhere else!

Great job Kowani, picking up 12 birds in an hour. The light bulb definitely went off for this little girl.

We title this picture: Taming The Dragon. This little go-kart with a Ferrari engine is Ki owned by the Northcott family.

She’s going to be a little hammer as she gets older and learns how to channel that desire and power in the right direction.

Gotta love high drive puppies!!

While not the weekend we hoped for, going 1/4 in Masters.

Had to scratch Dyson last minute because of a heat cycle.

We lost Georgia in the 1st and Leo and Jake in the 3rd after putting together 2 beautiful series, but we put our heads down tomorrow and keep grinding.

However, congratulations to HRCH Tallie owned by Stephanie Opp Grisanti on her 5th straight Master pass!

Welcome to the Kennel Copper! This good looking dude is new to the kennel and owned by the Hammond family. He’s here to learn how to be a hunting dog, and I have a feeling he’ll be getting a lot of birds in his future!

He is currently going through collar conditioning and is doing great!
