The GSP we purchased from Dennis will soon be 2-he is a happy, energetic and beautiful dog. Everywhere we take him, we get compliments on him. His true love is tennis balls-retrieving them for hours on end!! He is the healthiest dog we've ever owned-would definitely recommend this breeder.

We just picked up our puppy, Ellie, from Dennis this weekend and we have already had such a wonderful experience with her. She is already on her way to being housetrained! Everyone comments what a pretty and well behaved puppy she is. (Of course she has her puppy moments!) We are so pleased with Dennis and our new little puppy. His facility is very clean and he puts a lot of time in to his puppies to make sure they are well adjusted. We hope to eventually get another one to give her a companion. Thanks Dennis!

We brought Jersey home a few weeks ago. She was easily house trained. It took just two days. We were very surprised. Dennis said she would be a fast learner. She's a great companion for our son Tim. He intends to train her as a bird dog when she gets a little older. Right now she sits, comes and is leash trained. She is a beautiful pup and we are happy to have her as part of our family. I would recommend a dog from Dennis and Greyrock to anyone who inquires.

My name's Joshua Lopez, and I've been working alongside Dennis Canterbury over the past five years. Dennis has a true love for the breed and continues to impress me with the quality and effort he puts into his dogs daily. Day in and day out, I thoroughly enjoy working with his young dogs due to the trainability they have at such a young age. Working alonside some of the best dogs I've seen to date makes it all the more reason to continue loving what I do.

We got our GSP from Dennis and have been very happy with our decision. Great dog, well behaved and adventurous. Highly recommend Dennis and Greyrock.

We couldn't be more happy with the our new family member, Otto! Dennis and his family were very accommodating with our pre-delivery visits. We picked up Otto at 7 weeks and now that Otto is home, we are stunned at how well trained. He listens well, responds to commands and waits until he gets outside for any bathroom time!
Dennis is always there to answer questions and has made it easy to bring our dog home. Otto even liked the fireworks on the fourth of July! Thanks much!

Our GSP from Dennis is now almost 8 mos. old...he has amazing natural talent, is smart as a whip (too smart, the trainer sometimes says!), has gone thru basic training well, but most importantly is EXCELLENT with our children! He is also well socialized around other dogs and people and we are thankful we found Greyrock! Jack-jack's natural talent for pointing is amazing. Thank you , Dennis!

We picked Abbey up about a month ago. She is just about 5 months old and we could not be happier. She has been sitting on command for about 3 weeks, walks on a leash fairly well, was crate trained almost immediately. Comes when we whistle( most of the time ) Dennis has been very helpful as we have had questions, we have called and he has been very helpful !! Highly recommend !! Thanks Dennis , We love her.

I got my puppy, Chesni, from Dennis. He is now about 4 months old and I couldn't be happier. He has a great temperament and willingness to learn. Not only do I notice is natural ability to point and stalk birds (and sometimes my cat), but he is a great companion dog for me, which is what I wanted. I am grateful for Dennis' knowledge and his reputable breeding line to give me such a wonderful wo-man's best friend! I would definitely recommend Greyrock for a companion dog, hunting dog, or both.

We picked up our GSP from Greyrock over labor day weekend having never owned a GSP before. I owned an english pointer prior to this and was so impressed with that dog that I was a little hesitant to make the switch. I will say that only a month later I could not be happier with the decision. Dennis was extremely knowledgable of the breed and takes great pride in the quality of his dogs. Our dog will be both a field dog and a family pet so the socialization was very important to us. This dog is very intelligent, very social. Dennis spends a lot of time with his dogs to make sure that they will be both good pets and field dogs. I strongly recommend that you consider Greyrock if you are in the market for a German Shorthair.

We recently purchased a GSP pup (Bella) from Dennis and she is really a fabulous dog. We just started her on obedience training and it's remarkable how easily trained she is. Her temperament is so even keeled and just what we were looking for - we couldn't be more pleased. While our dog is great, I also can't say enough good things about Dennis. I had never owned a GSP before and I had LOTS of questions - many ridiculous ones I'm sure - and Dennis was always very patient and kind with me and only chuckled at me a few times. Anyway, Bella was definitely worth our long drive from Kentucky and Greyrock was definitely the right choice!

We found Dennis to be a very educated and reputable breeder of Shorthairs. We were very pleased to see such a well kept kennel with an "at home" environment. Our puppy was 9 weeks old when we got him and is doing very well. He is pointing wings (and butterflies) and has a lot of natural ability. We highly recommend this breeder!

Dennis was very knowledgable and helpful in matching us with a puppy. Even though Gus will be a family pet and not a hunting dog, Dennis was still very insightful to our needs. Gus is a very happy and energetic pup. Thanks!

The puppy we purchased from Greyrock Kennels is now 10 weeks old, she is great. Her natural instincts are amazing for a dog so young. We have owned several GSP over the years and she seems to be one of the most intelligent.
Dennis was very helpful when we were looking for a GSP puppy this spring. His kennels were clean and organized. Our puppy was well socialized and has adjusted well to her new home. We are very pleased with our new puppy.
Submitted by: Larry McGuire on Sep 04, 2008
The pup we received was well socialized and quite intelligent. She has begun pointing and has responded well to training. Dennis and his facility is the example of what a breeder should be. It is refreshing to see such genuine concern and care for the breed and the individual dogs.
Submitted by: Elise on Aug 18, 2008
We picked up our male pup in August (2008). He is an athletic, intelligent, well-socialized pup and surprises us every day with how quickly he learns. Greyrock is a clean, well-organized kennel with great dogs. Dennis is very knowledgable and happy to share this knowledge with buyers. His experience makes him a much more valuable source than any book or website! We are very happy with our pup, Jack, and look forward to learning more about gundogs and pointers with Jack in the coming years. Thank you Greyrock!

Dennis is an expert breeder. After seventeen years,he has accrued a vast data base of information. He gladly answered our questions and concerns.
He takes the time to analyse each puppy"s temperment. He uses his expertise to place people with puppies, not puppies with people.
Kennels were clean. Dogs received exceptional veterinary and handler care. There is a lot of love given to his dogs.
We will continue to use Dennis as our breeder for years to come!!!

In July we went to visit Dennis Canterbury at his Greyrock Gundog Kennel facility and to select the female GSP pup (Isabella or Izzy for short), which we will be picking up shortly.
Dennis was knowledgeable about GSP's and offered some great suggestions on them. He spent all the time we wanted and needed to feel comfortable about purchasing one of his gun dogs.
His facility was clean and offered activities and stimulation for all the adult dogs as well as the pups.
Besides the great attention and care that Dennis has for his dogs, Greyrock Gundogs offers top quality GSPs at a very fair price.
It was worth the 4 hour drive from the Buffalo, NY area.
The fact that the parents are on the premises allowed us to see what types of characteristics our pup might have as an adult.
Once we live with our new pup for a while, I will post another testimonial about Greyrock's breeding results.

I picked up my pups frpm Dennis at greyrock today again very good service and Dennis was quite knowledgeable. I have just settled them in here at their new home and cannot get over how sociable they are and smart / brave. They are definately going to be good bird dogs and will make a good addition to my shorthair family. I can already see that these two pups (male / female) are ahead of my female shorthair when she was this age in sociability. Im lucky enough to be local but would have come a long way for the quality pups we got. It was such a nice experiance and the pups were good enough that we couldnt take just one and had to have two!!!!!!!!

great kennels clean and nice dogs good serves. The dog that I got is a very very nice dog I hope it becomes a wonderful hunting dog thanks Dennis.

Dennis at Greyrock has shown great patience with me and my wife in choosing a new Shorthair pup. He really cares about what quality animal he puts out and even in a time of turmoil was courteous to me and mine. The facilities are spotless and the dogs wonderful. The pup we picked is a nice little female and this experience has guaranteed Greyrock is where we will go for our Shorthairs and is where you should go too.

Time for some follow up on "Tag". Dennis, I wanted to let you know that I took him out for opening day of pheasant season this year at a state park. It was just he and I and he was able to get 6 cocks into the air. I have to say that was all natural. He will get his training this upcoming summer and fall and I am very excited to see what he does next year. The cover was very dense so I could not watch him work to see point but he was sending the birds up and did not run on gun shot. Thanks again as Tag is a great family dog and hunting companion for me. Great GSP breeder.

We brought home our Sadie in the end of September and she has definitely become a member of our family. Her tail is always wagging, she continually makes us laugh because she is silly, and she loves every person she meets. We did not purchase her to hunt with her, however, does show great instincts. Sadie is very energetic, is very loving, and is very curious. She also absolutely loves the water. She has learned to turn the water on in our tub and bites and plays in the water. We love her to pieces and have had a very pleasant experience with Dennis. He was very informative and thorough with our puppy - thanks Dennis!

IN JUNE, I PURCHASED A FEMALE RUNT PUP FROM GREYROCK KENNELS. AT THAT TIME THE PUP WAS ONLY 4 WEEKS OLD AND VERY TINY AND I WAS TOLD THAT AT BIRTH SHE WAS NOT EXPECTED TO MAKE IT. NOW SHE IS 6 MONTHS OLD AND EVERY BIT OF HUNTING DOG SHE WAS BRED FOR. AT 8 WEEKS OLD SHE WAS POINTING AND AT 16 WEEKS I FOUND SHE HAD A VERY SOFT BITE WHEN SHE DISCOVERED MY PET BIRD IN THE HOUSE AND DECIDED TO TAKE HIM OUTSIDE TO PLAY. I WAS TERRIFIED THAT THIS WAS SURELY A DOOMS DAY FOR MY BIRD, BUT INSTEAD SHE DROPPED THE BIRD ON COMMAND WITHOUT HARMING HIM AT ALL. SHE IS A VERY INTELLIGENT, ENERGETIC PUP WITH MORE SPIRIT THAN I HAVE SEEN IN A PUPPY IN YEARS. IF I HAD TO RECOMMEND A BREEDER TO SOMEONE I WOULD SURELY POINT THE WAY TO GREYROCK KENNELS.

I was fortunate enough to get the last male GSP pup from Dennis's recent litter. He is a very intelligent dog and knows no strangers. He loves being outdoors and is very aware of what is going on around him. My Vet, who grew up hunting with GSPs , is very impressed by him and told me I have an exceptional pup in all rergards. I am thankful that so many others passed him by. My dealings with Dennis were very professional. Dennis, thank you for the great companion for myself and family.

I just bought a male gsp pup from Dennis 2 weeks ago for my 10 yr old son. As a family we run NSTRA and he is looking to have his own dog to run. The pup has shown tremendous learning abilities along with some great traits that are inherited from great parents. Dennis is really great individual to work with and we hope to be able to deal with Dennis and Greyrock again in the future.

We have just brought home our pup from Greyrock Gun Dog Kennels. He is a very healthy, energetic pup and our vet was excited to see such a fine example of the breed. Dennis, the breeder, is very nice and answered all of our questions. We were given time to tour the kennel and see the dogs. Both pup parents were on site. The facility is well kept and the dogs are in excellent shape. We drove all the way from Syracuse NY to get a dog from Dennis and it was the right choice. We are so pleased with the entire experience and thrilled with our puppy, Maverick!

Wow what can I say. I purchased a 7 wk GSP from Dennis and she is awesome. I am a hunter from Washington and she has already shown good natural instinct, and temper in the field. I cannot wait to start the hunting season. The train ability of "Case" has been one of the easiest dogs I have ever purchased. This is what you get from Grey Rock, genetically sound dogs ready to hunt. Thank you again Dennis as I would recommend anyone wanting to purchase a top quality GSP with a breeder of honesty and integrity, purchase from Grey Rock Kennels.
Submitted by: David Carroll on Sep 04, 2007
My 7 month old GSP purchased from Dennis is a natural. There was no training - I just put her in the birds, and her point could grace the cover of any hunting magazine. She was also very easily yard trained. Dennis took great care in ensuring his pups are healthy and well cared for. I hope I don't have the need for another pup soon, because I look forward to hunting her for a number of years, but if I do, I would certainly not hesitate to purchase another GSP from Greyrock.

Got a 12 week GSP "Tag" from Greyrock about 4 weeks ago. What a great dog he is. I get so many compliments on what a great looking dog he is. That is only the surface. Tag has a great nose and is tracking and pointing very well at his young age, all bred instinct no training yet. He also very inteligent and learning his obedience well. Dennis took the time to make certain that his dogs are socialized and good with other dogs, people and especially kids. I can not say enough about the quality I have seen in Tag at this point in time. I can't wait for the hunting season to see what he will be like around wild birds this year. I have a feeling that is going to be the icing on the cake in the complete family friend and hunting dog that this breeding produced from Greyrock. Thanks again Dennis and I will keep you up to date on Tags progress..

We contacted Dennis about a puppy in May, and did quite a bit of research before getting our beautiful Charlie from him. I have had dogs my entire life, and this puppy has been the smartest and easyest to train. We are not hunters, and we have children, and Charlie has been a wonderful fit for our family- he is eager to learn and please, and while he loves to run through the woods, he is also great at coming back. We have been thrilled with the quality and intellect of this dog!

We looked long & hard for a top quality breeder of GSHP's, and we sure found one in Greyrock Gun Dog Kennels. From the first telephone conversation I had with Dennis, I found him to be extremely knowledgeable of the breed as well as very caring towards his dogs. We picked our pup up from Dennis the end of June and found his kennels to be well kept and managed. Greyrock Kennels is not a large kennel by any means, which to me indicates that he puts a great deal of time and effort into the care of his dogs and pups. Now that we have had our pup for a month, we are extremely satisfied with her and Greyrock Kennels. In the short time that we've had her, I can truly see she has a great bloodline. She's been very easy to train so far and has an abundance of bird instinct in her. She has been a great joy to our 3 young children as well. We would highly recommend Greyrock Kennels. When the time comes for our next GSHP, I will be giving Dennis a call.

Our son, while serving in Iraq as a helicopter pilot took it upon himself to contact Dennis and surprised his mom with a GSP puppy when he came home on his two weeks leave. (He said it was a belated Christmas present and thought I needed someone else to care for.)

Baxter has adapted so well to his new surroundings and is a great little dog. He and our 7 year old pointer, Chester are inseperable.

Once my husband has the time to start hunting with him, I will update you on his progress.

Feel free to use us as a reference, Sincerely, Gloria Carlson

Working with Dennis was a pleasure he was very helpful in insuring me that the trip for her (pup) would not be to hard on her. She travled from OH. all the way to Ca. She made it fine and when we opened the crate she was happy to see us and gave lots of kisses. Dennis was more than concerned about pup and her arrival we keeped in touch through it all. I would recomend his dogs to anyone that wanted a friend to go hunting with or a good family dog.

I can not say enough about the dog I got from Dennis. The dog I received has great natural instinct.

I would not hesitate to get another dog from Dennis, and look forward to someday to getting a liver colored shorthair maybe...

Would strongly recommend to all!
