About Tiger Mountain Pointing Labradors

29 years of hunting, training & breeding......

Tiger Mountain Training Facility offers proven training programs to produce dogs with style, enthusiasm, and the confidence to make great upland and waterfowl dogs. We believe any bird hunter who desires a family dog that will point staunchly, retrieve under all conditions and loves birds, will truly appreciate a Tiger Mountain Pointing Labrador. We develop dogs that handle difficult retrieves and hunt thick cover. Our tried and proven training programs create an enthusiastic and happy dog with a strong foundation of training. We are a full-service training center located in central Washington State. Our facility consists of 129 acres of privately-owned upland cover and nice water. We offer custom training for pointing Labradors, all breeds of pointers, flushing, waterfowl, and competition retrievers.

We have taken the same programs that enabled us to win over 50 championships in the American Field and AKC pointing competition and curtailed it to fit, with a great deal of success, into a gun dog program for all levels of bird dogs.


Whether you are looking for an award winner or just the right field/family companion, Tiger Mountain has been offering both for many, many years and can assist in your endeavor to acquire "just the right" pup or trained dog.

I purchased a male lab from Tiger Mountain Kennels and will purchase my next pointing lab from them as well. The dog Gus is everything they had advertised. I have had labs for 40 years and this dog rates in the top two on his desire to hunt and follow commands. Tiger Mtn Kennels were very easy to deal with and kept their word.

Our Tiger Mountain lab, Sammy, arrived 3 years ago. She has not only become a trusted and loved member of our family, but for 3 months a year I get to be the owner of the best hunting dog, bar none, in my hunting group. She points staunchly, hunts tirelessly, and when a bird goes down where other dogs refuse to go, the words "get Sammy over here" make me proud. She is by far the most athletic dog I have ever seen and I give all of the credit to John Greer at Tiger Mountain for that. I will own many more Tiger Mountain labs.

We bought our first pointing lab (Archie) from John Greer (Tiger MT Kennels) 2 1/2 years ago. He has turned out to be one of the best dogs we have ever had! We are an Outfitter out of Alaska. The terain is as tough going as any place in the country. The dog always amazes me for how tough and smart he is.He points patrmigan very well.Our clients shot well over 300 birds over him this past season. He gets better with every days hunt. We just bought another pup from John. We looking forward to many more hunts with our Tiager Mountain dogs!! Bruce

I will never get another dog unless it is from John Greer at Tiger Mountain Pointing Labradors. My dog Gunner is a 7 month old black male and has done better at duck, pheasant and quail, then several other dogs from other breeders that we have been with this year. These other dogs were significantly older and put through more training, but Tiger Mountain dogs hunt more natural than any other dogs that I have seen. The training from John and his people is also worth every penny! Though not collar trained yet, he has hunted in South Dakota for ring necks with a group of six and four other dogs. His pattern was phenomenal and never went further that 25-30 yds. and a collar was never needed. Best dogs!!! Great training!!! Fantastic People!!!

WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT TMPL. FIRST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS BREEDER ON NORTHWEST HUNTER I THINK ON VERSUS OR THE OUTDOOR CHANNEL. DID A FARE AMOUNT OF TALKING WITH THE OWNER/BREEDER JOHN ABOUT A MULTI-PURPOSE TYPE DOG AND THESE DOGS ARE FOR REAL. PURCHASED MY PUP JADE THE FIRST PART OF THE YEAR AND FOLLOWED THE GUIDANCE AND SUGGESTIONS FROM JOHN AND IN ABOUT 9 MONTHS I HAVE A DOG THAT IS ALREADY MAKING DOUBLE RETRIEVES OUT OF A DUCK BLIND AND WORKING HER WAY TO BE A POINTING MACHINE. HE OFFERS A 30 DAY HEAD START PROGRAM THAT JADE ATTENTED AND THE DOG CAME BACK A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DOG. HE BREEDS DOGS THAT ARE BOLD, BIRDY, AND FLAT GOOD LOOKING. IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A LABRADOR RETRIEVER (THAT POINTS)TMPL IS SOMEONE TO TAKE A LOOK AT. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED...

Our Tiger Mountain Pointing Lab puppy participated in the Puppy Head Start Program, where she was exposed to a whole lot of birds, working released birds in hunting conditions.

Later, she then went through the Force Fetch and Upland Training programs.

The day we brought Gypsy home from her training with Tiger Mountain she was not quite one year old. The very next morning I got Gypsy out hunting wild birds and she pointed and retrieved a limit of rooster pheasants that first day.

The next day she did it again. Another full limit of pheasants on her second day of hunting.

In the last week Gypsy and I have hunted five days and she has pointed and retrieved 13 rooster pheasants.

The credit for Gypsy's success goes to the training she recieved with Tiger Mountain. She demonstrates a strong natural point and an intense desire to hunt. She is energetic and eager to retrieve.

Gypsy is a wonderful family companion and a pleasure to hunt with.

The puppy we recieved from Tiger Mountain Pointing
Labs has been everything we have been looking for and more. We had her(Coco) out for trainging this summer for 3 months and she is such a pleasure to work with out in the field with whistle comands. The dog ranges well has a very good nose, points and does not give up on a down bird.
All of this from a dog that just turned one year old says a lot about the breader. I was not able to send the dog back to Tiger Mountian for training but the trainer who worked with her this summer felt she was one of the best dogs he has ever worked with and whishes this was his dog.

I purchased a Tiger Mt. Pointing lab from John & Choral when I was in college. My dad has been a gun captain for over 30 years for field trials in the North West area. I have had the privilege and opportunity to hunt with some of the finest dogs around. After hearing about Tiger Mt., I had to see this operation for myself. (And he was in my home town in college) I called John and asked him if I could come out to the farm and look at some of his dogs and see them in action. We instantly hit it off on the phone and invited me over to come over the next day. After seeing his dogs work I new I had to have one! He put me on the list and before I new it he called and said I have a pup for you. I put Harlie ( My black lab) through puppy school and his advanced training. I have never hunted with a finer dog! After my dad saw her work, he had to have one too. We have became great friends with John and Choral. They are an absolute 10! If you are thinking about getting a top hunting dog I would only recommend Tiger Mt. I will be contacting John and Choral soon for another pup. Since my purchase we have sent everyone that we hunt with to John and Choral. Thank you guys so much! I feel blessed to have met them!

Sincerely,

Chuck Capps

I bought my puppy from Tiger Mountain then had John and his crew put Cinder through his puppy basic training and Force Fetch. From start to finish I have been nothing but pleased with the results of the dog and the training. John take the time to explain the program and what you should be doing with your dog at home to further its development. To date my 10 month old Tiger Mountain puppy has pointed and retrieved 16 birds since October 8th.

Tiger Mountain is a first class operation. My next dog will be from Tiger Mountain.

Tiger Mountain is a first class operation all the way through.

Amazing dog! wonderful temperament! It has been super easy to train! Not to mention that he is breath taking beautiful. He is everything a lab should be and is.

I cannot imagine having a more energetic, easy to train dog, as the male I got from Tiger Mountain. Hawk is my 5th lab I am 60 and just had to euthenise my 15 year old, who hunted up until this year. I have always bought from a Breeder, and Tiger Mountain has suprised me with the Energy level of the male I got from them. No stopping this guy. I hunt the Columbia River and there have been times that I had to call him back after 300 yards, get the boat and find the bird again. As we walked out of the flooded fields last year he made a B line east to a spot that just looked like water, out his head under and pulled out a teal.....I had now idea there was a bird there it was over 75 yards from our line of travel. Cant say enough about Tiger Mountain Dogs.

I got my first pup, Dixie, from John 11 years ago. I couldn't ask for a better dog. John sent me a pup in May and at 7 months she looks like she'll develop into at least Dixie's equal. (It speaks volumes that when I needed another pup, I returned to John and TM.)

John's dogs are great in the house and with my kids. They are family. Every year in the field Dixie amazes people who have never seen a pointing lab. It never hurts to get compliments on your bird dog and Dixie still gets them at 11 years old.

We hunt pheasant, sharptail, Huns, quail, and blue grouse. John's dogs do it all and do it with style!

Wonderful dog with a lot of drive, an unbelievable nose and a great companion for the whole family. John had her for only a month (at 8 months of age) and she was ready to hunt.

I have three Training Mountain Pointing Labs and have been working with them since 2001. Before making my first purchase I looked at other breeders and I visited the Tiger Mount. Facility. My search was over. I was impressed from that first day, and have continued to be impressed through the years. Their dogs and training programs are the total package. These are some of the most versatile gundogs I have ever owned.

We purchased our boy Carter from Tiger Mountain in the fall of 2003. Carter has been a true joy to hunt over; he points his birds and is a great retriever.

We hunt the rough country of Nevada for chukar 40 to 50 days a year. If you’re looking for a great PL and a wonderful companion Tiger Mountain is the place to go.

I have had my Tiger Mountain Pointing Lab for 6 years now and couldn't be happier. Before I decided where to by my lab, I visited the TMPL facilities and was thoroughly impressed. Since none of us get out hunting as much as we would like, it was important to me to have a dog with great instincts as well as a great demeanor. My black female Sage has literally traveled the country with me from Alaska to Maryland and everywhere in between. Bottom line is that I have yet to see a more versatile, well mannered hunting dog and couldn't be happier that I have her by my side.

We bought our TMPL female 2 and a half years ago.
She is a superior hunter and house pet. She flew
back to WA from Maine to be puppy trained and has hunted for pheasant and quail in Maine and NH and is great. This year she flew back to WA and was bred with a sensational male at TM and now is the proud mother of 11 beautiful pups, four of which are going back to WA. Tiger Mountain produces the greatest dogs around.

We are proud owners of 2 TMPL, they spent October in S.D. hunting roosters and they were incredible, we have a 2 1/2 year old and 8 month old.If you are looking for the ultimate hunting dog and family pet TMPL will not dissapoint.

We have a pup that is almost 7 months old now that we purchased from TMPL. She was pointing birds when we brought her home at 7 weeks and has only gotten better. She is excellent at retrieving and has most commands down almost perfectly. We are currently working on force fetching her. This has been one of the smartest and most cooperative labs we have ever owned. I would highly recommend Tiger Mtn. Pointing Labs to anyone who is serious about hunting.
