About Flyway Retrievers
We Train Dogs That Make Owners Proud
Nothing beats the feeling of having that “once-in-a-lifetime” retriever: the stories, the memories, the awards and the experiences of taking your dog out to hunt successfully so many times. Tears of joy, the laughter of remembering a wonderful day, and so much more…
Believe it or not, the difference between a competition winning hunt test retriever and an average hunting dog is the foundation. Just like college students need to manage stress, get enough sleep, and have a solid study routine, so too does your dog (for maximum learning potential). That’s why we have carefully created an environment that supports your dog’s learning, from their nutrition to our retriever dog kennel, where they will sleep.
Our Retriever Trainer: Charles Cates
Charles is a passionate trainer who has always had an intuitive way of understanding what’s going on in any dog’s head from an early age. 30 years ago, he began training retrievers on the side. Since then, Flyway Retrievers has grown by reputation alone into one of the most trusted retriever training companies in the US.
Unlike many other retriever and gun dog training companies, when you send your dog to Flyway Retrievers, they get to work directly with Charles, not a junior trainer!
Until very recently, most of our dogs belonged to repeat customers and their friends! Now, we’re training hunting dogs for people who have never heard of us before (like, possibly you!) and making trustworthy, incredibly high quality retriever training accessible for any person.
