Hi John,

I hadn't been in touch with you for a long time. I assume you may on occasion wonder about your dogs and how they are doing after you have sold them. Parker was born in June of 2001 and I picked him up in August. Since that time, Parker has been my faithful hunting companion and most importantly a special member of the family. He is still in good health and loves nothing more than a day in the field hunting pheasants or ducks. Parker's temperament is beyond description. He is extremely smart, gentle, mild mannered and just seems to know how and when to get intense when we go hunting. I couldn't have a better dog and probably never will for that matter. Thanks again John.

Best Regards,

Hi John & Choral,

I am just writing to give you an update on Wyatt, purchased from one of your litters a year and a half ago (Born July 2010). We are just wrapping up our first real hunting season, and my first season with a TMPL, first pointing lab ever actually. I am sure everyone feels the same way about their dogs, but he is truly amazing. He is by far the most gentle, affectionate, and loving lab I have ever owned (I have had 3). Even when playing with the little one, he knows when he is too rough.

As far as obedience, he is number one. His eagerness to please me is unsurpassed. His drive on the hunt is amazing, I thought he would tire out much faster than he does, I need to stay in better shape to keep up with him! Our focus this year was solely upland birds. I wanted his upland game solid before we moved on to waterfowl. We went on our final upland hunt of the year yesterday on a preserve. We put out 12 birds and he found 11. He was birdie where the "un-found" bird was planted, but it must have flown off. He worked had for his birds yesterday, all but 2 of them got up and ran from where they were planted, it was great to see him use his nose like that. He actually tracked one bird for over 175 yards before he caught up to it, pointed it and flushed it for the shot.

Thank you so much for my loveable hunting companion and family member. My 6 year old call him his brother. We are so thankful for the highest caliber of dog you produce. Thanks again.

Not being able to get the last trip out of my mind for NE Montana I went back and closed out the season. Wow the weather got up to the 50’s no snow lots of wind and the birds won. Good numbers but when you got a rooster in range you needed to take advantage. Me and the dogs worked our tails of for 5 days and both did fantastic. All the cover and mild winter look out for next year! Happy New Year

Hi John-
You may not remember me, it's been a few years. I wanted to let you know that Burton passed away today, he was 13 years old. You originally sent him to us when we lived in Michigan, he was our first child in every way, I'm crying as I write the note... He hunted ducks, pheasants, and grouse in Michigan, and then more ducks, chukar, and quail in Idaho. In addition to that he was the first one at the door when we came home, and the last one to bed at night. I wanted to tell you what a great dog Burt was - great hunter, great family dog, and great friend. Everyone thinks their dog was the best, I know Burt was best for us.

Best,
Ken

Hi John,

I thought you might enjoy this reminiscing story of this last weekends hunt in KS.

The hunt was a lot of fun even though the KS bird population was probably the lowest I’ve seen in over 20 years. On the last morning of the hunt my black lab, Buckeye, pointed an old rooster (big spurs and very long tail) hemmed in by the sounds of the encroaching hunters’ cordura faced pants and leather boots beating the dry milo cane and the naked waterway in front of him. I released the dog and the heartening sight and sound of a brightly colored, cackling bird filled the sky. I knocked it down with my #6 1.125 oz. copper hand-loads. The fun was only about to start. You see, the bird didn’t fall dead. It landed in a heap in the waterway and then sprang to his feet and scurried in plain sight across the grassy surface heading for the opposing milo, black dog in hot pursuit. Imagine a lab bounding in knee high cut milo, hopping in all manner of direction as the bird, by now a specialist in evasion at his advanced age, darted this way and that. Then there was a streak, a black lab, head down, highballing it north at top speed as the bird presumably was running down the row; whizzing forward and out of sight, passing one hunter after another spaced in-line 40-50 yards apart, all absorbing what they were seeing. No elusive moves, just plain raw speed. And so it went for 200-250 yards; it seemed a glorious eternity. A farmer/hunting partner that was blocking the field near the road said the dog just went nuts, spastic, his near seven decades of hunting experience telling him no bird could go that fast for that far. Canine bounding and hopping started all over again. Then, silence, no visible motion, a pregnant pause. The sight of a thick pointed black tail held high above and in contrast to the weathered milo stalks and in retrieval motion sparked anticipation, but did he have the bird? A question only mindfully asked given the distance traveled. Sure enough. Gassed and looking for his master, Buckeye briefly suspended his prideful return trot half-way back before resuming. The dog well understood the prolific accolades expressed in English and delivered by hand by me and spectators alike. It was the point and retrieve of this dog’s young seven-year lifetime and the making of fondest memories for all. I’m sure glad I only winged that rooster.

Best regards,
Peter Gaide

Hi John.
I purchased a pup from you in 2004. Tiger Mountain Rooster (Roo) has turned out to be the finest upland dog that I've hunted with and according to many that hunt with me, the finest they've ever seen. I should look at this papers and tell you what his breeding is (you referred to him as Fast Eddy). All of that being said, I am thinking of another pup for next year. Roo has had two surgeries for small but cancerous tumors and I fear that there are more on the way. I'd love to hunt the pup with him for a season or so.

Since he was a year old, he has been my wife's running partner and runs 4-6 miles per day, six days a week. Being in that kind of shape has been incredible for hunting. He still leaves most other dogs in the dust at the end of the day. But, she says he is slowing down a little this year.

I can and will fill out the form and send you a deposit for a next year litter. A question would be if you have any really special crosses you are looking at doing for next year. I'd love to have a heads up on that. Almost all of my hunting is upland. I generally make 1 or 2 trips to North Dakota every year and spend the rest of the season in Washington. I've gotten so used to my dog pointing that I would certainly want that again. Looks are also important to me--I love the look of Jake on your website.

So, there are my thoughts and needs. Any thoughts of your own are greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking the time.

Hi John,
It’s been awhile but wanted to let you know Shelby is doing great. She loved the pool so much we couldn’t get her out hahaha she could swim for hours and didn’t care if we were in there or not she just loved swimming around. With hunting season coming up we can’t wait to get her back in the fields David says she is amazing to watch. Also she is the must loving and loyal dog she has a wonderful disposition and can be quite comical at times, she makes us laugh a lot. Hopefully we can get some pictures of her hunting so we can send them to you. I don’t know how you do it but you picked the perfect dog for us again. Thank you again and we will keep you updated on how our girl is doing. Have a happy hunting season.

Best Regards,
David, Mary Jo Family & Shelby

Elvis is a wonderful dog, he makes me look like a good trainer. Not only did he pass his picnic test but was in the top 10 for texas singles. He ran against 37 dogs in texas singles.
Thanks again!!!!!!!

John- I just said goodbye to one of the best friends I have ever had, Bart.

My son, Conor got a yellow lab at your place last year. She is a great bird- and family dog. We love your dogs. My friend John Doyle will be getting one in May. You may be hearing from me soon, when I can shake Bart’s loss.
