We had a great hunt with Cory and family last weekend. A couple of pictures for you. I couldn't have been happier with junior. Lots of birds and he did a great job.I truly have only done some foundational work and planted a few pigeon for him and he was really solid. That says a lot for your breeding program and the quality of dogs you are producing.

Thanks for getting me and this dog together, I am looking forward to many years of enjoyment in the field and around the house for both of us.

Good Hunting

We got some preseason birds at a local hunting preserve. They flagged the first 3 birds out of 6 hens released. Tank passed over the first one without reaction. We went ahead and kicked that bird up with Adam shooting it at about 15 yards to get him used to the shooting sound. No problem there, in fact that got him excited. He pointed the rest of the birds for the day. They were great points! He even came up with a rooster that wasn't released. He's a great dog.

Thanks for Greta. This is great!! At 7 months I took her hunting with some friends and their dogs. She performed better than the older dogs we were with. Plus when you are done you go home and I haven't had to keep her in a kennel, She stays in the yard and plays with the neighbor kids. What a dog!!!

Thanks a million Joe

  Never in my wildest dreams did I ever expect to have a dog of this caliber. He is the most amazing hunter.when we hunt with others champster always finds the birds.I can’t even tell you what a retriever he is. Gets better every time out. Last season in South Dakota there was a bird shot across a big pond. I looked over and champ jumped in and started swimming that was a first. Started crying like a baby I’m 69. Wounded birds are now a joy as long retrieves are just natural. He now sleeps in the master bedroom most mornings he is in bed with us.he is a strong athletic dog that never tires.the best part of our purchase was getting the videos showing us what he was learning.you can tell these dogs are loved.hard to wait to pick up.

but I’m so lucky to have found joe I call him dog whisperer he is talented caring and makes you a part of what is going on. We like champ so much we have another dog in training his name is sir wjinston Winston very beautiful thanks.  Joe

We have spent a great deal of time at kennels in the recent past.searching for a pointer or a setter.Our focus has been to find an adult male with all the attributes most everyone is looking for, good manners,strong on point,good personality/character, good looks etc. your shorthairs have what we were looking for, and it was apparent immediatly on our arrival. At the prior kennels we were really never tempted.but at your kennel it was difficult to make the choice among several dogs available. The choice we made evolved over a week or so of back and forth emails. and our new guy Benny is looking good.

Thanks Joe

A little update on Boomer,  I have guided with him (14) times since the beginning of October.He has pointed over (200) pheasants and retrieved the 140 of them that were shot.He has no quit in him, for a smaller shorthair he hunts in weeds and sorghum that is 4 feet tall and thick.I could not have got a better dog!!! He is fantastic with my grandchildren and anyone that comes to our house. He is great around other dogs. 
thankyou

ty and skeet tracked this rooster for

over 1/8 of a mile in dry grass before Ty found and pointed him in tall cattails. Both dogs were very patient and persistent. I’m very impressed

Hi Joe

The feeling that Gsps were always our favorite Breed has been set in stone after just our first few hunts with our 13 month old female from Simon's Hunting Dogs. She trusts her nose, Responds well to our commands, seems to read our minds, she tops off every determined find with a cheerful and efficient retrieve. We are both impressed and joyful at the hunting dog and house pet with which we have been blessed.

Judy and I got to Florida yesterday ahead of the snowstorm, We came this year by way of Tennessee (To see a Flintlock rifle collection) and than by way of Louisiana ( for a woodcock hunt) Benny could not have performed any better! he pointed the woodcock and retrieved them as well. Most dogs don't want anything to do with woodcock. and it is rare they will pick them up. He also plowed through the very heavy cover along the Mississippi river. He also gets a lot of compliments on his looks. He is doing better in the house too. He has a twinkle in his eye and handles quite well. He has a good Brain.

Thanks Tom
