What can Hay Creek Kennel offer you? The complete package: boarding, bird introduction, obedience training, bird dog training, finishing touches such as trained retrieve and backing, training supplies, and much more.
Nestled away on a half mile dead end road lies a secluded 80-acre paradise we fondly refer to as Hay Creek Kennel. It is a family owned and operated facility founded on strong family ties and values, support of friends, and true respect and love for dogs. We take tremendous pride in boarding and training dogs, as well as the kennel and training grounds that aid in the training; it is our life and passion.
Our training knowledge is based on a sound and broad research base as we are and will continue to be well read on credible training techniques and the nature of dogs as pack animals. Furthermore, we have attended numerous training seminars and are currently in the Ronnie Smith Apprenticeship Program. We are secure in our abilities and pride ourselves on providing low pressure, high energy, positive training to instill confidence in dog and owner.
Here at Hay Creek Kennel, we train using the Silent Command System™ created by the Smith family. This system begins with you. If you can read your dog and anticipate its actions, you have already started to understand how we train. The elements of this system are summarized below.
