Hope Retrievers

Kelli and Jordan are expert dog trainers, my female lab just got done with their Gun Dog program and I couldn’t be happier with how she turned out. Great facilities, train the right way, very fair priced, and awesome people that went above and beyond. I have used 4 different dog trainers as well as had labs all my life and they are the best experience I have had. I will be sending her back before hunting season to do more training.

Hope Retrievers is a wonderful kennel, and Kelli is an amazing trainer! I have been very impressed with her ability to communicate, which is something I found to be lacking at other trainers I've had. She has also done an excellent job getting my Golden Retriever to the Senior Hunter level and got him his Senior Title! My dog always comes back to me happy and healthy, and is always progressively better than when I dropped him off. I highly recommend giving them a try to see the results for yourself!

Kelli is as good of a dog trainer as you will find. I have a two year old black lab that has been through her puppy academy and gun dog training. The results I have experienced are excellent. Kelli gets great results by building relationships with the dogs. Her retrievers enjoy what they do and your dog will come back from Hope Retrievers well trained and, most importantly, happy. Kelli maintains clean kennels, is focused on the health and well being of your dog, instills a desire to please in your dog, and is accessible for training tips after you dog returns home. I have had a relationship with Kelli and her family for two years while she has trained my dog and I can honestly say I have never had a complaint, have developed a good friendship, and have a well trained dog that has been the

I had an exceptional experience with the Kelli! Her expertise and dedication truly stood out. The personalized approach to training ensured my dog developed crucial skills for effective hunting, testing and companionship. Her patience and clear communication made the process enjoyable for both me and my dog’s “Yes, 3 to date”. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch training for their hunting companion or just to have an obedient family companion…

Hope retrievers is incredible! My two pups have never been more behaved after spending some time with Kelli. I would (and have) recommended them to all our family and friends. My 5 year old lab did advanced obedience and whoever said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks has never met Kelli Hope! I can easily take her for walks now without pulling on her leash and she listens so well to our commands that I don’t have to worry about her running off. My golden retriever went for puppy training and has been introduced to so many new experiences and socialized so well that she listens better and is on her way to being an emotional support animal. Definitely take your pups here for training!
