Went on a recent Pheasant hunting trip in Kansas and Chad was our guide. Chads does a great job and his dogs are excellent hunters. I have hunted with alot of different people and alot of different dogs and Chads dogs are right there on top. Thanks for a great hunting trip Chad.

I had a great opportunity on a group hunt with Chad in Elder Glen, Kansas. I have never hunted birds or been around bird dogs. This was a great experience watching Chad and his group of dogs at work. Chad was committed to providing a safe experience for his dogs, while ensuring a quality hunt for us. As a novice bird hunter, Chad helped with my shooting mechanics and I was able to bring down three pheasants. Great time with great people and great dogs! Thank you Chad and Matt.

In November 2011 Chad was our guide on a Kansas pheasant hunt.
Hunting behind his dogs was a great experience.
all Chads dogs hunted hard and were great bird dogs.
It was exciting watching his dogs work beyond what you would expect from most dogs.
I would recommend one of Chads dogs to anyone wanting a dog to brag about.

I bought my Lily from Chad. She's gonna be a heck of a huntin dog. I've trained a few, and I know what to look for, and I'm liking what I'm seeing. She was pointing before I picked her up, she's got more drive than most pups, and at 9 or so mos. she honors like a champ. Chad is a good guy and is very professional and courteous. He has also helped me several times w/ information regarding info surrounding training supplies. I would and have recommended Chad/ Coppperhead Kennels for anyone who wants a hardworking, reliable pup.

i have used chad as a guild for 4plus years at my hunting lodge in north central Kansas, most of my repeat hunting guest are due to chads hard work but mostly because of his dogs i have never had a complant when groups call to book a hunt they will ask for chad as a guild every dog that he puts down makes my client's happy and willing to return year after year i always here talk at the supper table on how good his dogs are and some say the best they have ever hunted with check out on utube pheasant hunting in Kansas (Rader lodge) and see for your self there is a good pheasant hunt that shows some of chads dog work on it

I bought "Stella", one of the blk/wht females from the "Cruz x Shy" litter in May. Leon worked with her for a month before pheasant season and she has exceeded all my expectations! At 7 months, she points, retrieves, and hunts as hard as any of the mature dogs I've been hunting with. I think Stella is as stylish and pretty as any Shorthair too. Chad and Dana are very knowledgeable and helpful and you will enjoy the experience of buying and owning a Copperhead dog.

We bought our first GSP from Chad and Dana. She is the off spring of Cruse the dog pictured above. She is now seven months old and has quite the personality. She does have a sharp eye for birds and I can't wait until fall to test her in the fields. Her ability and natural instinct of pointing was in her right from the start.
Josey just got back from a month of training and all I can say is she must of paid attention for the difference we see in her is amazing. She came a long way which helped me out so much for I just got home from replacement knee surgery.
I know she will be a great hunter and has all ready added excitement to out household.

Just picked up my pup a couple days ago and all I can say is class act all the way around! Chad and Dana's dogs are great! The service and information are second to none. I will definitely be doing business with them again. When you get a GSP from Copperhead Kennels you can truely expect great things.

We purchased a liver male from Chad in 2007.Chad has been very helpful in getting us started in hunt testing and helpful with training our dog. Chad got our son, Grant, to become a junior handler. Grant is currently working with Hoss toward his JH. Hoss is a very good tempered dog with everyone in our family just like all the dogs in Chad's kennel.

I recently purchased our second GSP from Chad and Dana, yes it was my son who had to pick the black and white patched puppy.... Lyndy is doing great full of energy and traing very easy. My parents also purchased a female out of the same litter and less than a week she is already potty trained for the house also.

Ruby was the first purchased GSP from Chad she is now 3 years old and has been a great pet for us. I will be entering her in some hunt tests this spring with a lot of pushing from Chad. We are looking forward to this as she has turned out to be a great hunting dog.

Our dogs are not just another pet, they are part of the family and go with us everywhere they are indoors at night with us. I would recomend Copperhead Kennels to anyone!!

I recently bought a GSP puppy from Chad. We had a great experience dealing with him, and he was a great help with getting her flown out to Arizona. She's a beautiful pup, and a great addition to our family. We look forward to taking her camping and hunting.

We purchased our black and white puppy Grace from Chad and Dana in December of 2008. She has a strong bird drive, learns quickly and is eager to please. She is a wonderful member of our family and a great camper as well. Chad and Dana have been awesome about anwering questions and introducing us to the hunt tests in Nebraska. We are impressed with the quality of their dogs and would definately recommend purchasing a puppy from them.

I've been around and trained GSP FOR 20 YEARS AND Chad has very good and trainable dogs i have trained some off the pups from his litters and had a very easy time of it As for Cruse this is a one in a life time dog we had him steady to wing and shoot at 7 months old we can all expect big things from this dog.
