I've gotten to know John over the past year as we've had conversations about what individual dog would be best for our family and for my hunting needs. We took delivery a few weeks ago of our GSP just a week after he turned 1. He's amazing, and John's training has really prepared him for us. He's our first dog and we wanted to make the right choice about they type and temperment. John helped us tremendously and I can't say enough good about the whole experience.

We searched the web site for a German Shorthair and came across Prince Gun Dog site, after talking to John on the phone several times I knew this was the place for us to get a pup as John was so honest about the quality of the dogs he raises. We stressed that we wanted both a hunting dog and a family dog as well as we have two small girls. John lined us up with a liver female pup and we picked her up at 5 weeks of age in August 2009. She became a part of the family very quick and is the most easy going pup who loves kids and is very active. The hard part was to part from her and take her back to john for training in April of 2010. Macy stayed with John in training for about 8 weeks and when we went to pick her up she did not even take notice of us as she was all about birds. John took us to the field and she pointed at least 5 birds and held the point every time and retreived every bird with a soft mouth not hurting any bird. She covered the ground very quick and OBEYED ALL COMMANDS.Next he took us to the pond and showed us how she retrieved in water. She brought back three live birds and dropped them at his feet. The time she spent with john was incredible as she does all anyone could ask for. IF you want a great hunting dog and family companion this is the place to go. Macy is a part of our family as she thrives to please and she does her best when she around people and wants to please all the time. I cant wait to get into the field this fall as all my hunting buddies have heard about and want to take her to the field. BEST OF LUCK I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JOHN FOR YOUR NEXT HUNTING DOG. TWO OF MY FIRENDS HAVE ALREADY GOTTEN DOGS FROM JOHN. THANkS MIKE MURPHY

Honest, Straight Feedback, Weekly Updates, Good Value, Great Methods! All of these are comments I would like to share about my experience working with John Prince.

I had reached out to John within a week of picking up my new Vizsla puppy. John was selected out of a group of 5 trainers that I talked with because I believed his philosophy lined up with mine about how to train a “softer” breed of dog in a Vizsla.

John and I stayed in contact as to the pups development until it was time on July 1 to take “Guy” to bird dog school. Our line of Vizsla’s, this is the fifth generation of breedings we’ve done, is notorious for being late maturing. This later maturing dog is the opposite of John’s breeding program for GSP’s.

Guy definitely fit the later maturing trend we had seen, BUT through John’s training methods he helped the pup start attaching neurons in his brain through the training process.
Having had dogs professionally trained before and paying for 4-5 months of training each, you can understand how surprised I was when after exactly one month, Guy had been transformed from “late maturing” and not ready to handle the training to a started dog that will find, point, whoa, load up, turn, handle, honor, come and all other commands a started dog should do. Even better, it was all accomplished in 1 Month for $400.

Start with good genetics, add in a little dose of John Prince and I have a bird dog ready to go for this fall!

Thanks John.

I first meant John Prince at a friends house while John was delivering my friends dog that he had just trained. My wife and I had been talking about getting rid of our GSP because he would not listen and was way out of control. John worked with my dog Jake and within the first 10 min. he had Jake whoaing on live pigeons and I was sold and ready to send my 11 month old wild GSP to have John train him. Four weeks later John called and asked when I could come and get Jake so we jumped in the car and headed for Pittsburg Kansas. While at Prince's Quality Gun Dogs, John took the time to show us everything Jake could do and entertained us with lunch and a tour of his property where he trains the dogs I was very impressed. The day after we brought Jake home my 8 year old daughter Brynn was giving him some water in his Kennel and Jake broke free i found him about 50 yards out and on his way to freedom when i yelled HERE. Jake stopped dead in his track turned around and came back to me. One month ago it would have taken hours of chasing to get him back to the kennel. Jake also is constantly pointing on birds but loves to be around the family and hang out. I can hardly wait for this fall to show off Jake on the Pheasant hunts. Very impressed with John and his quality of training plus John stuck to his word and only charged me the $100 per week that he said he would. Jake was completely trained for $450. For anyone looking for training or purchasing a GSP look no further than here. John is the best and my next purchase will be from Prince's Quality Gun Dogs.

I’m just a few months shy of year from my purchase of a puppy from John Prince. While I’m familiar with bird hunting, I was not with owning a bird dog. Going through the different hunting breeds I was looking for one of those “perfect, all-in-one” type of gun dogs. So when my research landed me with the idea of a GSP, but more particularly with John Prince’s phone number off his website, I gave him a call. Shortly after that phone call, I found myself being invited out to John’s place to look at his dogs. I didn’t know what to expect but from the amazing testimonials written about Prince’s Quality Gun Dogs, I had no choice but to check it out. Straight from the beginning, John not knowing me from anyone else was very friendly, patient with my questions and very honest. He showed me his dogs and what he had to offer. The thing that caught my attention was if you live close by, you can come to his facility and he will literally train your pup for FREE! This was exactly what I needed, being a first time gun dog owner, and luckily I was just a ½ hour drive away! After a few more visits, and a few more phone calls, my purchase was made and a new GSP puppy came home with me. The next few weeks were awesome, helping train my dog and seeing his progress. Esau (my dog) was retrieving, pointing birds and doing water retrieves as FAR as I could throw the bird. And all of this before he was even 4 months old! Since then he has continued to be a great dog, both on his first pheasant hunt and in our home. I’m lucky enough to have found where I’m going to be buying my dogs from, and I did so on my first purchase. No need wasting money on other dogs from other breeders that don’t have a natural retrieve and amazing natural skill and pointing ability. Just call John and let his dogs speak for themselves.

This may look long winded but if you are interested in a dog from John Prince's kennel it is a must read. True colors are shown only when adversity is involved. About 1 1/2 years ago my family and i decided that we would like to purchase a hunting/family dog. Through internet research we decided on a GSP. Being from Saskatchewan I am more of a big game hunter than a bird hunter, but this I want to change to get my wife and two girls involved in the hunting sports with a dog being the tool to get them interested and involved with my beloved past time, hunting.I researched a breeder out of Idaho, got in contact with her, and tentatively picked out a pup with the family. The follow up call to the breeder to see how funds were going to change hands did not go as planned. Over the weekend the pup had been sold(first come first served with this breeder). The breeder did however feel quite bad about this. No pups were available at the time, low and behold this is how i was recommended to John Prince(I thank her for that).We then got in contact with John and he took down our information of what we wanted and expected in a dog.Dozens of phone calls and emails later we decided that it was in our best interest to let John hand pick the puppy that was right for us. This was quite hard for us to do being so far away and having to put all our trust in a person in which we have only talked to on the phone and via emails. John took care of absolutely everything for us, I simply had to send money and pick up the dog at Calgary airport. All paper work was in order and went surprisingly smooth. We welcomed Remington into our family in August of 2009. He was all we could have wanted in a pup, smarts, personality, incredible looks, and sincere loyalty. When John told me over the phone that Remington was a real STUD he meant it, he was. Remington settled in just fine with his new environment. Some puppy classes, lots of exercise, and birds to play with things were exceeding my expectations. Then the bomb drops. I noticed Remington not being his spunky self. Off to the vet we go, x-rays confirm my worst fears, hip displasia. My vet recommends because of the severity of his case he recommends that I put him down. Why us? I go home and have to tell my family the terrible news. Thinking there is something that we can do for Remmy,my wife calls a close family friend who has her own small animal vet clinic in Red Deer, Alberta.My wife talks to her and explains our situation, from the crying and sobbing coming from our bedroom, my options are confirmed. I call John the next day a truly do believe that he is as devistated as we are. John assures me that he will make this right. At this time in John's life he is having his own terrible issues with his mother falling ill and not once did John not have time for me and my family, I told him to take all the time he needed with his family, family comes first. John then got back to us in a very timely matter considering the circumstances he had just been through.He did not have a pup at the time that suited our needs. John got back in contact with us a short while later and confirmed he had a puppy on the ground that suited our needs. Pictures, emails, ect. done. Finally our new puppy would be on his way soon. John was going on a holiday to Yellowstone and offered to meet us there with the new dog so the pup could avoid the stress of the plane ride. Unfortunately my wife and I had other commitments and could not make the trip. Bomb#2. While John was away on holidays the pup he has hand picked for us dies. Now put yourself in John's shoes. Here he has a customer that just had to put down their dog, and now you have to send word that dog#2 is gone. I believe he handled it very professionally. And I truly thank him for his honesty. John immediately tells us of a pup that he has already started training and was on gundog.com website for sale. He immediately pulled the dog and tagged him for us. Arrangements were made, and off to Calgary for my wife and girls to pick up the new pup. July 9th Nieko was picked up from Calgary. We have had him now for a couple of weeks and he is retreiving to hand from land and water, points at anything that moves(as long as it is not human), great with the kids and great with socializing other dogs. This is going to be a awesome dog, he has even impressed some buddies that only think and breath labs. The trainer is lined up and can't wait to get him in the field. Through all our misfortunes that we have had, I am here to tell you that if you have any doubts about John Prince as a person or a breeder, simply toss them out the window. This man is all about honor and integrity. I am not sure if John even wants these events posted so I will leave that up to his discretion. I just felt it necessary to tell the truth about how this great man and breeder handled the situation when the chips were down. I know my next dog(and there will be more) will without a doubt be coming from his impressive kennel and blood lines. Once again John thank you for your honesty, caring soul, and beautiful new pup. I will be recommending you to anyone who is looking for a great quality dog. I promise to you as you did to me that this dog will have all the opportunity in the world to become the best that he can be. I will keep you updated with pics and progress. Thank you. Sincerely Shawn, Michelle, Jocelyn, and Mackenzie Chittenden. Pilot Butte, Saskatchewan, Canada. If there are still doubters out there please give me a call, I'll set you straight 1-306-526-6936

I bought a pup from John and she was pointing a covey at the age of 11 weeks. YES, 11 weeks. She is a great dog with a great nose. She is extremely active but the best dog by far that I have ever owned. If you want a great hunting dog that will surprise you with their intelligence, this is the place to get one. I can't wait to see what John will do with my dog after training. Pointing at 11 weeks??? This dog will be a great hunter and I can't wait to get her out in the field after John trains her.

Wow...I can't say enough good things about how happy I am about my recent pup I purchased from John. I had been thinking about buying a GSP for quite sometime and John took the time out of his day numerous times to inform me and educate me about his dogs. From the very first day I got my 3 month old GSP he was naturaly retreiving to hand. He was already pointing wild birds in the field at 5 months. He has incredible bird drive, works very close and is a spactacular house pet. He is also great w/ kids. You can't go wrong w/ a dog from John....I'm already thinking maybe it is time to get another!

I RECENTLY WENT TO JOHN FOR SOME HELP IN TRAINING MY 7 MOUNTH OLD GSP, HE TOOK THE TIME TO TELL ME WHAT HE THOUGHT OF THE DOG AND WHAT HE COULD DO FOR ME. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH WHAT HE HAD DONE IN A VERY SHORT TIME. THE DOG WAS WHOA-BROKE AND RETRIEVING TO HAND, AND HONORING COMMANDS IN JUST 7 WEEKS. IT TAKES TIME AND TALENT TO DO SUCH A GOOD JOB IN THAT SHORT OF TIME THANKS JOHN
