At Idaho Hunting Dogs, our goal is to breed very conformationally correct GSP's that are also very birdy, and with loving personalities. Pups have TONS of natural instinct. All puppies are vet checked, current on shots by a licensed veterinarian, tails, dewclaws & worming done and pre-registered with AKC. Written Guarantee. Shipping available weather permitting. All of our dogs have had their hips certified by OFA and eyes certified by CERF. We take great pride in producing healthy happy puppies.
All of our puppies are born in the house and raised in the house to get them used to a home's general sights, sounds and chaos plus of course, lots of hugs and kisses. They are handled from the time they are born until they go to their new owners at 8 weeks. They are exposed to lots of different sounds, textures, and environments. These are definitely family dogs for the home that "turn on" in the field for an incredible hunting partner; however, we encourage some form of puppy social /obedience class for new puppies and their families. We do not raise "kennel" dogs. We have 6 GSP's and they all live in the house with us. They are like our children. Some people have many kids, we have 4-legged kids to bring enjoyment to our lives :)
All of our dogs are great in the field as well as outstanding family members.
- Ruger is a nice male with awesome style. He is put together very well. Ruger's parents are CH NMK's Jager Bob with a Twist JH and GCHB CH plus so many other accomplished dogs. Ruger is an amazing young dog, that real once in a lifetime animal. He was an impressive pup right out of the gate! We feel Ruger got his parents field ability and conformation. Ruger is a bird-finding machine in the field and a true lover in the house.
- Raven is our black roan girl with imports from Serbia. Her Grandfather is Seehof Nestor-Derby Prize 1 - SOLMS Prize 1 - V Rating “Nero”. Her lines are bred for natural ability, intelligence, correct conformation and calm temperament, our GSP's are enthusiastic about their "job" and want to please. We are expecting incredible things from this little girl :)
- Starr is our second titled girl. This is a real nice pup out of several well known lines. They are bred for natural ability and conformation. Along with the drive and desire to work comes the calmness and mannerly dogs you want to have around the house. Quiet in the house, they get along with people and children well, as well as other pets.

Cheryl with gun dog breeders was sincere and passionate about her breed. Before having our little girl she interacted with us week to week basis until the birth of the litter. She stands out amongst other breeders I've had experience over the years having GSP my whole life. Our puppy is 9 months now and she is very loving and great family dog along with great signs of being a bird hunter. She already standing point and retrieving!
Thank you Cheryl for all that you do and blessed to have our little girl.

Cheryl has been wonderful to work with. Always there to answer our questions, even if just related to best practices for dog training and advice. She isn’t just a responsible dog breeder but has an absolute love for dogs and makes sure that they all go to loving families. Our GSP isa great hunting dog, knows how to shut it off and turn it on. Vet says he is looking perfect with no health issues. Would recommend Cheryl time and time again and plan to purchase another family member in the future.

We have two dogs from IHD. Our older dog is a titled Master Hunter and the GSP Club of Idaho Dog of the Year for 2022. Our younger dog is just 4 months old. Can’t wait to see what she can do! I highly recommend IHD and Cheryl! Excellent bloodlines and customer service.

Cheryl took very good care of Laddie and myself. I was kept apprised of how and when the puppies born, had tails docked, everything. She also had video updates daily. I went to meet Laddie in her home. Very nice.

Cheryl from Idaho Hunting Dogs has one of the best breeding programs I’ve been around. She’s dedicated to working with the vet to ensure only the best genetics are passed down. Her dogs are raised in home and cared for on a different level. While all of this is great the proof is in the dogs. Cheryl worked with me to make sure I got what I was looking for, he’s an amazing boy! Truly one of the best dogs I’ve owned.

We bought a female GSP (Stella) from Idaho Hunting Dogs in June of 2025. Buying from Cheryl has been one of the best decisions we have ever made. Idaho Hunting Dogs not only gave Stella a healthy foundation but also gave us in depth knowledge on nutrition and health so Stella could be healthy through all stages of life. Cheryl loves each and everyone of her puppies and is always available if you have any questions about your puppy regardless if you are just purchasing or have and you puppy for years. When we picked Stella up in June she was all but potty trained which for us was huge! Stella continues to impress us with how extremely smart she is and how quickly she pick up on learning. At 8 months she is hunting like a dog who has been in the field for two to three years. We are so impressed with Stella that we are getting another puppy from Idaho Hunting Dogs this summer!

We had a great experience with Cheryl at Idaho Hunting dogs. She made the process of getting our GSP fun and easy and kept us in the loop with photos and videos of the pups throughout the first 8 weeks. The dogs at Idaho hunting dogs are well taken care of and loved prior to receiving them! We will be back!
