Utah Bird Dog Training

Gun dogs worth hunting behind.

Retriever, pointing, and obedience programs for hunters and families who want a dog that is capable in the field and easy to live with at home.

The work

Fair. Consistent. Proven.

Every dog is a member of someone’s family. We train with that in mind — developing skilled, obedient hunting companions without cutting corners.

five-star reviews from families who sent their dog

We were nervous about leaving the newest member of our family with someone else for three months. It was as if we had never been gone. Alex is first class in the field, in the blind, and at heel in the park with no leash.

Jesse, with Alex

When I dropped Kodi off he had a desire to retrieve but no real interest in birds. After three months I was amazed. That same day he took fourth in a contest out of about 25 dogs. My little timid dog is now a well-behaved bird hunting machine.

Ty Backer, with Kodi

She is much more fun to have at home than before she left. I enjoy taking her on walks now because I know I can get her to come back. Before you trained her, running with Millie was not worth it.

Ashlee Judd, with Millie

He was afraid of water, listened only when he felt like it, and loved to chew my birds. After two months he was a water-charging, obedient retrieving freak. It was almost like I got a totally different dog back.

Travis, with Ace

When I got Boulder back he was a whole new dog. Tyce stands by his work and made sure I knew the commands — it made for a very smooth handoff.

Braydon Whiteley, with Boulder

I can’t believe she’s the same dog. The boys took her hunting in Wyoming with their grandpa, shot seven birds, and she retrieved every one. My dad has owned hunting dogs his entire life, and he was very impressed.

Gus cleaned up in Arkansas timber this week. I received a lot of compliments on him. My thanks to you — he’s amazing to hunt with.

Tony Tennyson, with Gus

Oggie was as hard-mouthed as he could be, and now when he feels me touch the bumper he gives it up immediately. Tess was as unruly a dog as you have had to deal with. After a month she came home doing great, and we can bring both dogs in the house.

Larry Headrick, with Oggie and Tess

When I got him home I worked with him a little and it was awesome — he listened to me like it was you.

Toby, with Diesel

She has retrieved every single bird we have shot. I have more fun watching her retrieve the birds than I do shooting them.
