Figured a topic change may help get more feedback?

Hi all,

My wife and I have decided we would like to get a GSP puppy in the spring. Our goal is to train this dog for upland birds mainly grouse and pheasants. We live just north of Anoka and are looking for advice on potential breeders to look into. Please let me know if there are any you would recommend as well as any you would stay away from. How does this typically work once I decide on a breeder? Will we need to get our name on a list to reserve a dog from a particular litter? Preferences on male or female? We are undecided if we will train ourselves so please give me your opinions on the difficulty of this as well as a trainer you may recommend. Thanks in advance for all of the help.

There are a lot of kennels dedicated to the breed in the area. Some of these actively test their dogs in various venues to ensure their dogs are top-notch. I wouldn't hesitate to get a pup from Sharp-Shooters kennels in WI, Grouse-Point Kennels, Dankar Kennels, North-waters GSP's, Gunslinger's, or Autumn Breeze Kennels. You should eb able to find these witha quick google search.

Make sure you talk to each prospective kennel about what you are looking for in a dog so that they can match you up with an appropriate litter. Take your time with the search.

Best of luck.

Northwaters-GSPS will have some awesome pups on the ground in early spring. Contact Howie Hill. Also Ed Erickson at Autumn Breeze Kennels breeds awesome gsp's. Ed is also a pro trainer who does one on one training sessions if you want. I would also advise joining a local NAVHDA chapter for training your new dog. You wont regret it.
