No dog is perfect… but Shooter comes darn close! He is exceptionally cooperative and intelligent. He is easy to train and handle. In the house, he is a dream. He is content to just lay on the rug at your feet, never demanding attention, but enjoying getting loved on and cuddling on the couch when we invite him up. He can be serious and intense in the field and blind but still has a playful puppy attitude in the backyard!

Shooter’s cooperation and intelligence make him a quick study that is eager to please. It seems like he learns new things in only a matter of a couple of training sessions. From his obedience training to his trained retrieve, to his duck hunting preparation, he definitely picks up on things quickly! Shooter went from heeling on lead to collar conditioned to heel in 1 training session. He went through our trained retrieve process in record time. In only 4 days he was collar conditioned to hold and fetch and was starting lining drills. After only 1 steadiness training session he was ready for his first duck hunt. We went to Arkansas and he sat quite and steady in the blind, actively watching ducks and geese come in the whole time.

In the field, Shooter is tireless. He hunts between 60 and 90 yards and covers ground quickly. Even though he covers a lot of ground, he is easy to handle and a joy to hunt behind. He is a great dog to guide with, he backs naturally, retrieves to hand and you can believe him when he says he found a bird. He hits his points with incredible intensity and paired with his good looks Shooter makes a very impressive and striking dog in the field.

Shooter’s AKC testing record speaks for itself on just how trainable, cooperative and steady he is. Not many dogs out there can pass 6 for 6 Master Hunter braces, but Shooter made becoming a Master Hunter look easy!

All of Shooter’s characteristics are exactly what we are looking for in our dogs. He passes his incredibly sweet, easy-going, quiet disposition onto his puppies and his natural retrieving drive shines through as well. We know Shooter is something special and can’t wait to see him reach his full potential!
