Field Trials
Jim campaigns a limited group of spaniels primarily on the Eastern United States
and Canadian field trial circuit. Dogs participating in these trials can earn points towards the
title of Field Champion or Canadian Field Champion.
We specialize in developing young dogs starting with the puppy stakes then converting them to the
more demanding Open All Age stakes. Campaigning opportunities are
available on a limited basis.
We believe in Quality not Quantity.
Hunt Tests
From introductory pattern work to blind water
retrieving, we can assist your spaniel in preparation for the
challenges of the AKC Hunt Test program. Campaigning opportunities are
also available.

We also pride ourselves in offering handlers assistance
in handling their own dogs. Our reward is your success.
Monthly Training and Boarding
Our Monthly Training and Boarding fees are $550 per month, includes Heartguard and Flea/Tick medications. Birds excluded.
We offer a great program designed to develop a
young puppy into a first rate-hunting partner. A month or two of basic
introduction will get your puppy developed the right way. This is also a
great program to seasonally brush up your veteran before hunting season.
We can customize a training program to your hunting needs. We also work
on specific problems such as poor retrieving habits, disobedience in the
field, gun nervousness, etc... The owner/handler is encouraged to be
involved in training as much as possible to ensure a smooth transition.

This is a great training program for
you and your dog. If you desire to train your own dog with the guidance
of a professional trainer this is a great plan for you. We help set you
up with a specific daily/weekly or monthly training plan to get the most
out of your gun or trial dog. We offer open and tight cover for bringing
out the best of your dog.
