Professional Retriever Training

 

SkyHigh Retrievers, owned and operated by Mike and Tiffany Taylor, produces dogs with style, enthusiasm, and the confidence to make difficult retrieves and hunt in thick cover. We do this by giving your dog one-on-one time, fair and consistent training, and adapting to your dog's unique personality. We combine fresh ideas with tried-and-true practices. Our retriever training programs are based on being flexible and adapting to the dog's training level, talent, and temperament. This helps create an enthusiastic and happy dog with a strong foundation of training.

We provide custom training for each and every retriever, as well as specializing in pointing Labradors and hunting Golden retrievers. We believe that with fair and consistent training, every retriever can reach their full potential. Whether you own a competition retriever, a pointing Lab, a flushing retriever, or a waterfowl retriever, we can customize our training to suit your dog. No matter what type of hunting you do, your dog should work with you, be confident, and eager to hunt. For more information, please take a look at our Gundog Training page.

Our summer training grounds are located in Chewelah, Washington, about 45 miles north of Spokane. The Burlington Ranch is a training facility and gamebird preserve, offering 200 acres and additional leased grounds nearby. For dog training, the ranch offers six technical ponds, with plans in the making for a seventh. To take a look at some of the training ponds, please visit our Facilities page.

SkyHigh Retrievers travels to sunny California during the winter months, January - April. This gives your dog the unique opportunity to be worked on water no matter what time of year it is. This is a great program for a young duck dog ready to go into training, or for a competition dog continuing their water work. We limit the number of dogs for the winter trip, so it is best to make reservations. Make sure to give us a call if you're interested in advanced water work for your retriever this winter.
