Randy,
Absolutely love our female Brittany pup, which we named Riley. Excellent temperament, very smart while being a quick learner, and quite the cuddler. We have had Riley less than two weeks and she is already potty trained - waiting at the back door to go out, fetching her bird on command, and comes on call - we are impressed. We cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful puppy, and look forward to a well trained Brittany for both hunting and our family pet- we could not have asked for more!
Regards,
Brad & Jan

Our Twin Cedars Brittany was born 11/20/10 and we picked her up at the Sacramento, California Airport on 2/11/11. Randy arranged for her shipping and it went perfectly. She showed us her first point 10 minutes later in the airport parking lot when a car alarm went off! We named her Shasta since she is 90 % white. She is the 4th Edward's companion gun dog that we have owned and she is the BEST.
Before her 1st birthday, she had a dozen rock solid points on pheasants, some as far away as 15-20 ft. She also made several long & difficult retrieves. Gunfire had no effect on her and she honors my 10 year old's Edward's Brittany points. She goes at a steady pace for hours and is ready for more. She has been turning heads at our bird club due to her attractive appearance,great dispositon and hunting skills.
At home she has been a great pet. She is just as comfortable watching TV (with some interaction some times with what is on) as she is in the field. We are thrilled with Shasta and she has exceeded our expectations. You can't help but smile (or laugh) at some of her antics.

I would have to say that for my first dog, the Brittany was the way to go! Gunner is my 13 month old male and he is just FANTASTIC! Being a first time gun dog owner this was certainly a pleaseure from the first day. Gunner is energetic and loving dog, egar to please and ready all the time to learn. I worked with him all summer to get him ready for bird season, and it was we worth it.
He is doing great, more than I expected for his first season out. My family and I are very pleased that we went with Twin Cedars Kennel.

Thank you Randy! He has brought a new love for the outdoors and bird hunting.

I just got back from Wisconsin on my second trip up this fall to Grouse hunt. I have two Twin Cedar bred dogs, a female from Twin Cedars Bea and Bo and a male out of Twin Cedars Annie and Twin Cedars Dan. Both have hunted Grouse and quail since they were 6 months old. Both are a joy to work in the field and have developed into fine bird dogs.

Bea is the sweetest dog I have ever owned. She's a lady in the kennel, field and house and is now 4 years old. When she was 13 months old she finished 3rd in the Fall NLGDC Illinois field trial.

My male, Rev, out of Twin Cedars Annie and Twin Cedars Dan is three years old now and rock solid on his points. He held Grouse this trip patiently while we located him in the dense Wisconsin Popples. He does not break or hedge and is stylish with a huge heart for pleasing me and finding birds. I watched him point a woodcock from over 30' this year and 20-25' points are common with him. When he was 5 1/2 months he pointed a covey of quail and held point after several shots at flying birds. I questioned him for holding point until a single quail flew from his point after I kicked it up.

While in Wisconsin, all the other hunters in our area were only locating 4-6 birds per day. Bea and Rev were locating 10-12 birds a day that we had shots at. And those were late season birds that had been educated.

I'm confident if birds are in the area, between the two they'll find them, point them and hold them until shot. I look forward to many years of hunting with both Rev and Bea.

Good bloodlines is always the start to good dogs.

Mr. Johnson,
I purchased a pup from your kennel, litter 81, female #2, now lovingly known as Dixie. She is going to make a great dog. At five months she was pointing birds in the feild.She was also backing other dogs on point.
I have been hunting Brittanys for 35 years and she is one of the best! I am glad and honored to recommend your outstanding breed to hunters or just as a family pet.

I wanted to update you on some puppies that I bought from you in December. I bought a male and a female, Tucker & Bess, and they are now 6 months old. They have been with a trainer in Grand Junction, TN for about a month. The pups were fantastic at home, and lots of fun, and have been even better with the trainer. I go each weekend to work with them and they are coming along very well on their yard work. We introduced them to live birds the first weekend and the exhibited a good deal of “birdiness” on day one. Last week we worked both dogs on birds at the same time, both pointed the same quail at the same time and held point for several minutes…it was awesome! We also began introducing them to a gun last weekend. My trainer is a former field trial judge and I particularly wanted to pass this along…he said, “I knew these dogs were going to be good the first week you brought them out here. And they truly are. If you know anyone looking for Brittanys, you need to send them to the breeder you got these from.” I’m sure you’ve heard that before, but I could not be more pleased. Very much looking forward to hunting over them this fall! I plan to take some video of them on Saturday, and would be happy to share that with you for your website if you like. Hope all is well for you and your family.

Add me and my husband to the list of people who are so impressed with the qualities these puppies come into the world with. we just got our second English Pointer pup from Randy and couldn't be happier with her. She has all the same greatness the older Pointer has and the two of them are quite a pair together. I know Victor is going to have his hands full this Chukar season cause there won't be ant stopping the new dog even if she'll only be 10 months old by then. She is true to her breed and that's why we love them and appreciate a top notch breeder!

My young family (kids 7 and 10) made the trek from Alabama to Kentucky a few days after Chirstmas to pick up Meg a 7 wk old Brittany from Hi proof Heidi and Ed's Frederick 2. Although I had read all the books and done my research, we were all a little nervous since this was our first family pet and my first bird dog. Meg is now 16 weeks old and has been a true joy. She is smart as a whip, responded well to training, retrieves a dummy better than I could have ever imagined and made the prettiest point the first time I played the wing game just a few days ago. I am now scrambling to find some live training birds before it gets too hot and can't wait till her first hunt. She has been great with the kids, goes with us everywhere and is just an all around jam up dog. Feel free to call if you have any questions two05 nine08 one4six4. I love this dog!

Couldn't ask for a better dog than the pup I bought from Twin Cedars. I, and my family have hunted birds for generations and have owned almost all breeds from a lot of different breeders. I've always been partial to the Britts because of their intelligence, ease of training and natural instinct to retrieve.
The pup I bought from Twin Cedars ranks right up there with the best I've ever owned - if not the best!!
Thanks Randy and crew for a wonderful hunting companion and friend. Dixie sure has her own personality and is just a joy to be in the field with. Good stock and know how produce good dogs and Twin Cedars definitely knows what they're doing!!
