ABOUT US

 
 

Several years ago we moved out to what we fondly refer to as "God's 40 Acres", in Black Creek, Wisconsin.

The tractor (above) was our big gift for 2004.  We both grew up in Wisconsin, on either end of the state.  City boy meets country girl.  Our careers in Law Enforcement brought us together and it is probably the shared experience that has held us there.

Spending time with our dogs, out here where you can actually see the stars in the sky at night, is the most relaxing thing in the world.  The work is never done, but it is fulfilling.

Feel free to give us a call, or stop by and visit.  As my mother used to say, "there's always room for one more at a round table."

Our DogsServicesDebra's K9 ResumeHOME

You could say that dogs brought us together.  I (Deb) had stopped at Ace Hardware in Appleton to see if I could get permission to use the building for after-hours training with my patrol dog.  At that time, I was a much younger and better looking version of myself, and I was a patrol officer and K9 handler for the City of Appleton.  Tom was in the check-out line.  I recognized him as a local DNR warden and started a conversion, asking him what he was doing.  "Dog training," he replied.  It was a match made in Heaven!

At that time, Tom owned a black labrador retriever, which had two legs toward his AKC Master Hunter.  Tom was an AKC Hunt Test Judge, as well.  Somehow, I convinced him to have a cup of coffee with me and we chatted about dogs....and other things.  When I attended the Landes Polizei Schule fur Diensthundfuhrers in Germany in 1990, Tom flew over and we were married there. I later completed my police dog judging certification under Teaching Judge Wendell Nope.  Time has flown, and I am nearing retirement as a Sergeant with 24 years under my belt.  Tom is an Environmental Warden Supervisor for the DNR.   Tom has paid his schutzhund dues by laying tracks and being a helper for many years, and I, in turn, have throw many a bumper and learn how to "plant" birds.  Dogs are our love, and the motivation for moving to the country where we have room to train.

We are excited to be able to offer the services we have dreamed about for years!  We invite you to compare our experience in dog and dog training as you make your purchase and contracting decisions.  We are proud of our owner bred-trained-and handled dogs, working in multiple sports.  It is the measure of a breeding program when you can not only breed dogs but also train them up.  How better to know what you are producing and whether your goals are being met?  We are very active in continuing education, attending seminars, studying current research, and training for new events.
