products we use and love, breeders and businesses we supportFood, Chews, and Other Products
Foods
Purina Proplan Performance 30/20 is what we choose to feed our dogs and puppies. Our own dogs rotate between the different protein sources available in the Proplan Performance 30/20 formula. Puppies are weaned onto Royal Canin Puppy Mousse, and transitioned to Proplan Performance 30/20 or Proplan Sport Development Puppy 30/20 with the only significant difference being the size of the kibbles.
Treats, toys and chews
DogBullySticks.Com is the source we use to provide our dogs with bully sticks, and cow ear chews.
Supplements
Probiotics can be hugely beneficial to dogs, and we use Fortiflora, made by Purina and widely recommended due to the research that has been done on its efficacy.
Businesses
Pet Insurance
Our dogs are on Pet’s Best insurance. We highly recommend insurance from the moment they leave the breeder, and after the research we did found that Pet’s Best was the best option for us.
Breeders and Trainers
Bad Habit Gundogs
Amelia Greene is a professional field trial handler and trainer from Texas, and she has been there for us since our very first puppy stakes. Breeding fully health tested dogs with loads of talent, she is also incredibly supportive of everybody around her and doing her best to grow the sport.
Prairie Fauna Kennels
Hannah Hayes is a pro handler/trainer with a beautiful home base in North Dakota. Her skill and dedication to the dogs is obvious. When training she does not adhere to one “program”, but tailors the training to the needs of each dog in the moment.
Whisky River Gundogs
Todd Stelzer, a seasoned professional handler, is the owner of Whisky River Gundogs in Wisconsin. Todd breeds health tested dogs with temperaments we adore and a great work ethic, as well as allows us to come and train with him when our schedule permits and is nothing but supportive of us from the very first time I met him. We would not be where we are without him, and his support and trust, as he is the breeder/owner/handler of Joule’s sire Maverick.
Lighthouse Kennels
Jason Givens is a professional spaniel field trial trainer in WI, and whelped Mando whose sire he handled to his Field Trial Championship and two National Open Field Trial Championships back to back. Health and temperament are paramount to their breeding program and it shows in the dogs they produce.
