In the early 1990’s Minoggie Kennels began entering dogs into AKC Hunting Retriever Trials. In just 10 years, Doug Shade has earned Master Hunter Titles on more than 30 dogs, has qualified 30 dogs at the Master National, and qualified 60 dogs to run in the Master National. Of these dogs, 5 earned the prestigious honor of being inducted into the Master National Hall Of Fame.

Our Hunt Test training program is very intensive and is recommended for those dogs and handlers who are serious about competing in AKC sanctioned events. This program requires a great deal of time from the trainer, owner and dog. It is not recommended for the occasional hunter.
With this program your dog will be trained to mark the fall of multiple birds at one time. He/she will be trained to respond to hand signals, whistle blows, and voice commands. Your dog will also be trained to make a blind retrieve by following commands that lead the dog to “dead birds” or birds the dog did not see go down. |
