I’ve been involved with sporting dogs for almost forty years . I started with beagles , and was very active breeding , training , hunting and judging sanctioned SPO trials . I’ve owned 2 AKC field champions , and have shipped quality females all across the country to the best national champions in the country. I was a member of the New Scotland Beagle Club for 10 years , where I was a liaison with the AKC as a public education coordinator. My first Labrador retriever in 2002 , was not only a trusted hunting partner and house companion , but an AKC Canine Good Citizen obedience titled dog , as well as a certified , Therapy Dog International , therapy dog . Still alive , Cocoa is the type of Labrador retriever that embodies what a dog should be , and anyone would be proud , and fortunate , to own . I’ve also owned a German Shorthaired Pointer , and really love that breed as well . A recent house purchase on an acre of land , complete with a fenced 25×100 outdoor run , 12x 26 baby barn that broods up to 500 pheasants a year , an indoor whelping facility and adjoining finished basement apartment ( for the dogs) , located a quarter mile from my 300 acre , 2500 bird pheasant club , convinced me I needed more labs ! Please consider us , whether your needs are a new puppy , stud service for your quality females , or the occasional started dog that is sure to please – Perry
