Piper is a super hard charging, intense pointer and with a duck search to envy. She seeks out the heaviest of cover and will not quit! She loves to be in the field as well as lay next to you and let you pet her. She has a very strong nose and tracking is done quickly and effectively. She is a long ranging dog but adjusts her range quickly as cover changes or when you ask her to. She has a heart to please, has been a pleasure to train and is a wonderful companion. She is equally good on upland game as well as waterfowl.

Kate has been a great addition to our kennel. She is very hard charging and very natural at her search and find capability. She is intense on point and learned very quickly to back other dogs. She is a true athlete in the field and hunts very hard in all types of cover all day long. She is a long ranging dog but easily adjusts her range to the cover she is in. She has done very well on both upland game as well as waterfowl. She is a natural tracker and is one of those that tracks well on both land and water. She is a real pleasure to hunt over and also a great companion.

Otto has been a pleasure to train and is equally strong in the field and in water. He is hard charging in the field and gets along very well with all dogs and humans he comes into contact with. He rarely misses a retrieve with his long stride and always brings to hand. He is a strong pointer and a natural backer. His coat is medium length, lays very flat and is zero maintenance.
