Let's talk about testimonials. Testimonials are something that are given by an individual free of will hopefully giving other people insight on what one's merchandise or product is like. All testimonials are given when the pup or dog or training has been PROVEN!!! No testimonials stating that QUOTE (I had a great experience purchasing my pup or that I am a nice guy) are given until the pup has proven to be what I said it would be. That could be 5 mo of age taken bird hunting for the first time, 6 mo competing in events or what ever the case may be. I hope that what I tell you is nothing but the truth and what I sell you is even more than what I say it is. With this I give a GUARANTEE on health and hunting abiltiy.

Hello, my name is R. Mack Carlisle. I bought my female GSP pup, Moxie, at six weeks of age from John Prince in early June, 2012 after three visits to his facility (one to see the parents, the other two to select my pup). I have hunted shorthairs since 1980, always having from 1-3 in my kennel. Since my first shorthair I have produced offspring by crossing my dogs with those of acquaintances, but hit a snag this year as all three of my elderly dogs had been neutered. I did a very brief search on the Internet and found Mr. Prince. After a lengthy phone conversation I had no doubt this was with whom I wanted to do business. Following the acquisition of Moxie, John has been with me every step of the way, offering valuable tips and insight. I felt I had a special dog, as do many of us, but was concerned come late November that she was not progressing to her full potential under my tutelage. She didn't respond immediately to the "here" command, didn't "whoa", wasn't steady on point and retrieving dead birds was more play time than serious business. I contacted John and he expressed confidence he could correct her issues in less than 90 minutes!
And he most certainly did. First, he established his dominance, then he progressively corrected all the other issues using a couple pigeons, eight quail, and a chukar. By the time 75 minutes elapsed I was beaming with pride. Since I had purchased Moxie from him, this session was free except for the cost of the birds. You will not be sorry if you do busy with John Prince.

I was dead set on getting a Brittany till a buddy of mine, who had been looking for a good GSP breeder, told me about this guy in Pittsburg, KS named John Prince. My buddy had spent a lot of time looking for the right breeder and urged me to contact John before I made my final decision.

I first made contact with John via email and asked him several questions about the breed, his business and why I should change my mind in favor of a GSP. His response struck enough interest in me that I decided to give him a call.

I could tell immediately that he was very confident in his dogs, his knowledge and in his training; so confident that some of his promises seemed too good to be true. However, he guaranteed me that if I trusted him and his years of experience and expertise, that I'd have a "once in a lifetime dog"... one that at a very young age will be outperforming dogs much older than it in the field. He went on to say, "If your pup isn't everything I say it will be, I'll buy it back or will replace it with one that is." I thought to myself, what do I have to lose?

Then came my detailed description of the pup I was desiring. I asked for this, I asked for that; so much so that John, after 21 years in the business, told me that no one had ever asked for more. Nevertheless, he assured me that he'd do everything he could to provide me with the pup I was desiring. "It won't be easy but you have to trust me on this...it's what I do."

So, much like many others have mentioned on their testimonials, John invited me to his home and kennel. I watched him as he worked with young pups, holding steady on pigeons, no matter what he did to try and make them break point. I watched his incredible Snake Eyes do things I never dreamed a bird dog could do. It became very clear to me that everything he was describing in his dogs and their offspring was true.

Fast forward to the present: 9 months ago I purchased a male pup sired by that brilliant Snake Eyes I witnessed that day. He is indeed everything John claimed he would be: superior nose, great bird drive, natural ability and so far ahead of where a typical dog of his age should be at this point.

John has been with me every step of the way; answering my countless questions or concerns and giving me great advice with the same utmost confidence he displayed on that first conversation we had several months ago.

If you're looking for that "once in a lifetime dog", along with incredible service after the sale, look no further than John Prince.

Sincerely,
Trent McAtee
Pratt, KS

I had initially planned on purchasing a pup from Princes Quality Gun Dogs, however, due to the timing and circumstances, I ended up with a GSP pup from another breeder this summer. But after speaking with John at length and meeting with him last year, I knew that I wanted him to work with my pup. When he was 4 months old, I took him down for John to introduce him to birds and evaluate him. He showed some promise, but also some noise sensitivity. Needless to say, I was worried that I may end up with a gun shy dog. John knew exactly what to do and concentrated on bringing out his bird drive, only progressing as my pup showed he was ready to progress, eventually overcoming his sensitivity to noise. At 6 months, he was working the field, finding birds, holding point and John was shooting over him. My pup is now 7 months old and I am shooting wild birds over him. His drive is amazing and I look forward to many years of hunting with him. John did a fantastic job and I couldnt't be happier with the way we were treated. He knows what he is doing and is both honest, and fair. I would definitely recommend him. You won't be disappointed.

My name is Hillary. My family and I were in search for a GSP. My aunt Deb Wehner (a pointing lab breeder) highly recommended John's shorthairs. I then purchased a female shorthair pup (Paige). She is by far the best dog we have ever owned. She was pointing the minute we got her and is very well mannered. She will hold point all day and retrieves to hand very well.I can't say how thankful i am my aunt recommended John's shorthairs to me. I highly recommend Prince's Quality Gun Dogs to anyone who wants the perfect pointer. Thank you John!

Five years ago, I looked into different breeds of hunting dogs. After much debate, I narrowed my choice down to a German Shorthaired Pointer. Unknown to me at that time, that was the easy part. Next my research focused on breeders from across the country. When I submitted my inquiry to John Prince I was promptly delivered information on his newest litter. The parents of the litter had quite the resume and the pups were sure to posess the highest qualities this breed has to offer. My ultimate decision came down to two pups, a male and a female. Both had a beautiful display of roan and liver colors. I met John in Kansas so I could see the pups in person. After a long ten minutes, I chose the male.
Howie (Sylva's Ramblin' Howitzer-Registered AKC name)is now 5 years old. His body posesses all the features necessary to show. And his hunting prowess is unmatched by any other dog I have ever seen work the fields. Birdy would severely understate this dog's behavior while walking the field or just around the neighborhood.
To put it simply and bluntly, best decision I ever made. Howie is a wonderful bird dog and a terrific companion. Thank you John!

My name is Gary Royce.I purchased a GSP pup from John in August of 2011. After speaking to John several times on the phone and learning a bit about him, his dogs and methods, I explained to him what I wanted in a pup. I have to say he hit the nail on the head. Dassie is the kindest, most gentle dog you could ever want. She has been very easy to train and is extremely "birdy". She is also one of the most beautiful animals i have ever seen. Not a day goes by while on our daily outings that she doesn't get a compliment on how gorgeous and well behaved she is. I think it's going to her head. We are leaving for South Dakota this October for an extended training session and will be stopping back at Prince's to pick up another pup. I am not the kind of guy who is easily impressed, but I have to say John Prince knows a thing or two about GSP's. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a quality pup give John a call.

Hello my Name is Scott Brown, I found John via gundogbreeders.com. I contacted John about my female German Wirehaired pointer PIPER. I told him she was gun shy and wanted to know if he could help solve the problem. John told me that he would have to evaluate her first. So, I made the decision to drive to Pitttsburg KS and have him take a look at her. Once we got there we visited for a little while and then we went to work. He got out a bird for her to smell and get used to. She did not have the desire to chase or pick up and actually went in behind my wife and laid down. After a few more attempts of trying to get her interested in walking bird or a stationary bird she again showed no real interest. John was up front and honest and told me that he did not think that he could do anything with her because he needed her to have prey drive or bird desire. Which of course she did not show any signs of interest at all. So, we were done and I asked John what do I owe you and he said NOTHING, I AM JUST SORRY I HAVE TO GIVE YOU BAD NEWS!!! He did not say OH YEAH I CAN MAKE A DOG OUT OF HER and keep her here and charge me alot of money and then get nothing in return for my dollar. On the contrary just straight up Honesty!! I appreciate your honesty and professionalism and if I ever need anything again concerning a dog then Prince's Quality Gun Dogs is the place that I will go to. Also, I would like to Thank him for his quick reply and time that he took with me. I had emailed several other kennels some replied: I DO NOT HAVE TIME, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! OTHERS WITH NO REPLY AT ALL!!! John was quick to respond and we corresponded via email for a few wks prior to bringing Piper. Thanks again John!!!

I was referred by another individual to Prince's Quality Gun Dogs. After talking to John I felt he was a very honest person so I decided to purchase a 1 yr old male GSP. I drove from MN to KS which was 10 hrs away. I had German short-hairs in the past from which I had purchased from other kennels. I had been disappointed from past experiences so I was a little leary of the next person I bought a dog from. I came to Johns house and he showed me my dog which was house broke, retrieved in and out of water, pointed and held birds even birds that he threw in front of his nose, he would not move. He is the best dog out of 6 that I have owned in the past and he is only a yr old. I am very happy with my decision and I can honestly say that I would trust John with my next purchase of any GSP. Thank You John for being honest, giving me a good dog with a reasonable price. Toniy!!!
