I was referred to Matt by several people in the know, when I was looking for a new puppy back at the start of '08. I was immediately impressed with Matt's puppies due to their evenly marked heads and clean bodies. Once I contacted Matt, he was very helpful in the selection of my new pup. Even though we live in different states he was always very quick to return my calls and even went out of his way to email me some additional pictures of the pup I selected.
I have now had the pup for about six months and could not be happier. He is very affectionate and gets along with other dogs very well. He has taken to birds like he is a seasoned veteran. He has held a staunch point from the very first time that he saw a wing, to the point where he is now; steady to wing and shot. I personally own several dogs, and I have been able to train several others and I have yet to see a pup that has taken to training so nicely. I am anxiously awaiting our first season of wild bird hunting together. Their is no doubt that he has the potential to become the dog that I dream he will be. I would highly recommend picking up a pup from Matt. I know I plan on always having a few in my kennel.

"Hank is the dog
of a lifetime. He is young, but I know he will be the best dog I will ever own. He has done everything naturally. Has more drive than I could ask for, And style to spare. He is ranging very big at times. He hunts at mach 10 and sucks in everything with his nose. It is amazing how fast these dogs can run and still smell birds. To this point he has been easy to train. He has not been shocked with the collar to this day. My wife and kids love him also. He is a great pet.
He lets the kids play on him and he is very quiet. I find myself comparing everydog to him. not just mine but those I train/hunt with also. They all fall short,

" I like her a lot and I have no doubt in her bird finding ability, and I've never seen a dog with more natural pointing instinct than her. She will hold point all day until you start to approach for the flush and then she will creep a bit if you don't "whoa" her. I haven't used the E-collar on her yet, but I think I will introduce it soon to try and control her after the flush. If you don't have a good hold on the check cord, it's anybody's game for a few minutes. All in all I think she is going to be a fine big running Chukar dog."
