Flint Hills Retrievers and Kennels is a full service retriever training facility. All training is done by professional dog trainer and handler, Tom Masella. Tom is well known for his young dog work and has been training dogs for over 20 years.

Flint Hills Retrievers utilizes a program structured to make it easy for your dog to be successful.

Beginning puppies or dogs can expect to learn basic obedience; introduction to birds, water decoys, duck calls, gunfire; single marks and the trained retrieve.

Intermediate training includes an emphasis on steadiness; multiple marks; beginning handling; land and water "T" patterns; swim-bys and water cheats.

Advanced dogs will work on longer distanced multiple marks; advanced handling (blinds); hunting tests and field trials.

Flint Hills retrievers also offers a complete puppy socialization program. Puppies are socialized in a home setting while obtaining their puppy preschool training in basic obedience, marking, crate training and introduction to birds.

Guests are always welcome at Flint Hills Retrievers. Please feel free to come visit our facility and observe your dog in training any time you wish. If you would like to visit our facility, a map is available here.

At times, we will have puppies and started dogs available for purchase. Please see our "Our Retrievers" and "New Litters" pages for details about these dogs.
