Phillips Gun Dogs LLC

I have an amazing English Springer Spaniel named Oakley. I had been wanting to get into upland hunting with a dog. I wanted my first hunting dog to be trained and was referred to Phillips Gun Dogs. Needless to say I was more than impressed with how Oakley’s training turned out! There was great communication the whole time that Oakley was in the care of Chad. All the updates and pictures were awesome and made me excited for how he was turning out! He treated Oakley as if he were his own dog, I could tell because when I took him there for a 2 week refresher while I was on a vacation, as I was pulling into the drive Oakley got very excited and was ready to work! Once again I was very impressed with the work Chad put into Oakley and how well Oakley took to the training. I will be referring

I found Phillips Gun Dogs through word of mouth (I’m over 3 hrs away). Let me tell you, I have NOT been disappointed. Chad trained my GSP, Gunner. He was upfront about expectations and timelines. He communicated as I’d expected and would respond in a timely fashion if I had any questions or concerns. In short, he’s help turn Gunner into a hunting unit. I’d recommend him to anyone who’s looking to unlock the potential in their dog. I can’t thank him enough. He’ll definitely be working my next GSP. Thanks again Chad.

As we start another upland season I want to say thank you to Phillips Gun Dogs for FOUR amazing Shorthairs. Our 3 older dogs (3-6 YO) are all AKC Master Hunters, with the youngest 8 month old puppy coming along very nicely. While relocating, our dogs stayed with Chad; he and his family took wonderful care of the dogs. All were given refresher training; they are steady to fall and retrieve to hand consistently. Not only was I completely confident in Chad’s ability as a trainer to produce dogs that are competitive on the bird field, but are amazing and productive hunters. Our dogs came home to us well cared for, healthy and ready for the season. Chad’s experience and knowledge are extensive and he always does right by his clients and dogs. He’s continued to be a resource for me, answering

I have used Phillips Gun Dogs to train my GSPs for the last 8 years, we have always trusted leaving our dogs with Chad and his whole family. They have gone above and beyond with communication and outlining training progression. Chad brought out my GSP’s instincts, enhanced my dogs handling, and has helped me along the way with reinforcing techniques. My family lives 7 hours away from his facility, but it’s worth the trip every time. His work and attention to detail is evident each time we take the field with our hunting dogs.

We have had the best experience with Phillips Gun Dogs! Chad is a great trainer and was very patient with our wire haired pointing Griffon. This breed is sensitive and Chad is exactly who Goose needed to train with! We are excited to get him out hunting! Thank you so much from Goose and the Earl family!!!
