I cannot say enough great things about Andy and his facility. Our Lab had a terrible first experience with a different trainer, and we were losing hope that he wouldn’t come out of his shell after that. Andy did NOT give up on him, and after a very long and trying 2 months, our little man has come A LONG way! Andy has done so much with our dog; you can tell he loves and devotes his time, effort, and patience to each dog he has. Thank you SO much, DCR!

We had a great experience with Duck Creek Retrievers! Andy is great with communication and getting back to you. We were able to visit our puppy a few times before we brought her home. His dogs and puppies are well cared for. Our little Benelli is a very sweet puppy who is picking things up very quickly. She’s been home just over a week and has not had a single accident, has retrieved a ball and is sitting in command.

Couldn't be happier. It's been 15 years since I've owned a hunting dog. Our dog seems to pick up things very fast and is a great family dog also. Thank you duck creek!!!!

We sent our dog here for over 3 months of training. The dog does not even come reliably let alontle sit and stay. She jumps all over our small children and starts dog fights with our other dogs (she was not dog aggressive when she left for training.) She was there for duck hunting training and she is gun shy. In 3 months I expect a dog used to gun shots and retrieving reliably not running away and starting dog fights. I don't know whether she wasn't worked like we paid for, or the training skills are lacking. What I do know is training cost for her to be there and show no results is insane. I would never recommend that anyone take a dog here they would be better off flushing their money down the toilet.
