  • Great Podcast & Guests

    I really enjoy listening to these guys! They always give differing perspectives on the topics and bring on excellent guests to share about the outdoors. One guess in particular might be where I end up getting my next hunting dog from. Family friendly, great content, and great stories.

  • Very informative podcast

    I just found this podcast and I truly love it. I’ve owned dogs in the past, but never hunted with any, and I’m picking up my first hunting pedigreed Lab in a few weeks. This podcast along with the training materials I’m using are giving me so much to think about. Just regular guys who love their dogs and are honest about their own mess ups. Started at the beginning and working my way through all of these.
