Heirborn Kennel - Minnesota Flat Coated Retriever Breeders

We have been showing, hunting and breeding Flat-Coated Retrievers for 15+ years. Our breedings are done with careful consideration of proper breed type, structure, health, biddability and exceptional correct retriever temperaments to be the multipurpose hunting companions their heritage requires. Prior to any breeding, all health clearances are obtained including hips, eyes (with gonioscopy), elbows and patellas. All of the dogs we use for breeding are hunted over and shown to their bench championships. We are members of the Flat-Coated Retriever Society of America (FCRSA), the Upper Midwest Flat-Coated Retrievers Club, Irish Red and White Setter Association and the Granite City Kennel Club. We currently have two dogs active in Search and Rescue, one of them currently providing his services overseas.
