We are a professional retriever training and breeding kennel. We pride ourselves in training retrievers for hunting waterfowl and upland at a high level. Beyond the hunt we train for both; Waterfowl AKC Hunt Tests and Upland Bird Dog Tournaments. Our Hunt Test Program trains dogs at all levels including Junior, Senior and Masters. With the ultimate goal of training our client dogs and our own pers

We have trained others as well as our own dogs to be: National Champions, World Champions, Dog of Year Champions and Puppy Of The Year Champions. Beyond the National competitions we enjoy competing in local and state competitions. Our dogs have been featured on the Sportsman’s Channel, Pursuit Channel, You Tube, Local and National news, as well as many social media platforms. Although we enjoy campaigning our dogs in retriever events we are hunters first and foremost! We understand how great it is to have a highly trained dog on a hunt, be it waterfowl or upland. Therefore our first love is to train dogs for people who love to hunt and want a good obedient family dog. After all thats where most of the memories are made with friends and family! We pride ourselves in researching, breeding, raising and training our own line of High Quality Fox Red Retrievers. With Nationally known Fox Red stud dogs. We take great pride in our Yellow and Black litters as well. Throughout the year we raise genetically sound, health tested litters that meet our standards to be a good family companion, a rockstar when on the hunt and the intelligence to compete at a high level.
