“I recently picked up Luke, my 4 month old black labrador retriever from John at Hunters Creek Retrievers. Luke is such a sweet boy and I’m so in love! I came in contact with John in early March and he had me fill out a puppy application. We then spoke on the phone and he was able to determine what I was looking for and what puppy would fit my needs. I decided to put Luke through Hunters Creek Retrievers obedience training program. The day I picked him up, I was quite impressed at how well mannered he was and that he listened to all of his commands. John provides a wealth of knowledge and it’s no doubt that he’s an expert in this field. You can tell that he is very dedicated to this business and absolutely enjoys these dogs. Thank you John for giving me something to look forward to everyday!”
