New Field Champion News from Ken Mercer

Subject:     Field Champion Johnny Walker

Hi Mo,

Well what do you know! Big John did it !!!! He took first in a 22 dog amateur gun dog stake down in Connecticut on Sunday.

He had a big forward race and we found him standing when his brace mate was backing him. God, he looked like a statue.

These 4 points added to his 7 open points gives him 11 points for his open title. Also with this win, he now has 8 points toward his Amateur title. We should finish the Amateur title this spring.

Thought you'd want to know, the judges raved about his style on birds. The credit goes to his genetics and you and the work you did with him.

Thanks again,

Ken Mercer

Congratulations Ken. John has always been a real pleasure to work with. He is a great dog and you will have a lot of success with him.

A complete Bird Dog training facility.

Professionally Training Pointing Dogs for 30 years.

The Lindley training program is not a hurry up and hunt program, or a quick fix. It takes time to produce a complete dog, and a dog that you are proud of. Training takes from 4 to 6 months depending on the dog.

Problem dogs are welcomed:

Gun shy, Blinking birds, Laying down on point. Dogs that have been abused in previous training can be rehabilitated in most cases.

Patience and Skill are always used to train your bird dog.

We invest the time it takes to train your dog the way you want it trained.

Whether it's to be just a started dog or fully broke, the job will be well done.

"I work six days a week to ensure your dog maximum, one on one, training time. I maintain high standards when training all dogs - personal hunting dogs or field trial competition dogs - all are trained to exacting standards using the same humane training methods."
