ABOUT US
 

We were introduced to working retrievers in 2005 as we started training for competitive obedience with our dogs. We marveled at the enthusiasm and drive the dogs showed in training and during events. We quickly joined the North Dakota Retriever Club and made a lot of friends that helped with our training. I threw many birds and bumpers before I ran any dog. Lily was my first prospect. She amazed me with her water retrieves and her work ethic but also taught me the importance of solid basic obedience. In 2007, Spice joined our family. We continue to train our dogs for Hunt Tests and Field Trials.
 

Besides training our dogs, we do have litters available every now and then. Our dogs have clearances on hips, elbows, eyes, CNM, and EIC. We strive to produce healthy, genetically sound puppies that can work in the field. We enjoy raising puppies and take time each day to weigh and track each puppy's progress and personality. From the time the puppies are born, we expose them to many different stimuli as they grow and usually wind up with pages of notes on each puppy. We use these notes to help match puppies with their new owners.

I do specialize in puppy raising and have decided to take one puppy (8 weeks - 6 months) in for my puppy training program that involves potty training, crate training, and fun basic obedience as well as socialization. Please contact me about the availability of this program. I can provide references upon request.
