SUPERB TECKLE PUP ( Import) I can't recommend Garry highly enough, if your looking to import a top quality working dog, he's the man to go too, he made the whole process so easy and hassle free, I purchased my pup on the Saturday and she was delivered to my front door on Thursday morning , how's that for service. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to use Garry again and more than likely will. Lawrence Molloy 17-11-2020 Belfast
BURRENDALE ABBEY OF TYDDYNBROOKS @ VENATORDREAM GUN DOGS Garry and Lucy have been a pleasure to work with, from the first contact, to the second we picked our puppy up and beyond. We were updated with our puppy's progress along the way and he is an absolutely gorgeous dog. Garry took the time to understand what we wanted from our puppy and matched him to our needs perfectly. We have a strong, healthy puppy with a calm, loving temperament who will be the most perfect addition to our family. He is well worth the wait and we are so grateful that we were trusted with one of your precious puppies. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarah 7-6-2020
HPRs and Tracking Dogs I'm Tom Hinton a gamekeeper from North Yorkshire who has a massive passion for HPRs and blood tracking dogs. I've now had GWPs for more than 10 yrs and started with them as many do for grouse work predominately, but very quickly realised they can match any vermin dog and simply out class any other gun-dog for stamina along with a very good nose , simply makes them a fantastic all rounder I now have 6 wire haired pointers and started looking into the breeding of them, when I was offered one out of Garry's bitch to Rory's dog I jumped at the opportunity and can safely say it has been very good to train, with a fantastic nature along with being very pleasing on the eye He has a very low breeding coefficient, which is a tribute to Garry's knowledge of the breed and his determination to breed the very best. Having great kennel connections all over Europe allows Garry to choose from some of the very best blood lines available After having fantastic success with the GWP from Garry I got back in touch with him regarding another teckle for both blood tracking and fox work Garry sourced Zorro from Slovakia where he has kennels Zorro a 3 yr old black and tan wire haired Dachshund is a 2x International champion on fox work with fantastic diplomas in tracking deer and boar, he has a superb nature and I kennel him with my other dogs I have recently acquired a wire haired Vizsla from Garry, I wanted to see if they are what people say they are! and although he is now only a year old I'm very impressed by his biddable nature and want to please He has also been imported by Garry for me Garry at Hunting Dogs Europe is very easy to deal with , giving honest and accurate advise along with clear written out sales contracts, the delivery and meeting times are accurate and precise, the dogs arrive with all the correct paperwork / passports, with the export pedigrees being organised in the country of origin they are sent out at a later date Tom Hinton 15-2-2020 Fully Trained Bird / Deer Dog When I first approached Gary about finding me a particular dog I was looking for, it was a pretty brief and direct conversation, Gary is very honest and there is no messing around which I liked! I wanted a fully trained dog that was doing everything on pheasant and deer mainly and thats exactly what I got delivered to my door in Ireland no fuss! Magila has fitted in perfectly and impressed me everytime he is out! He knows his job incredibly well! I couldn't recommend Gary enough Sean O Brien 5 January 2020 Status TRAINED LABRADOR BITCH ( FULLY HEALTH TESTED ) I found out about Garry and Hunting Dogs Europe because I posted on the Stalking Directory forum that I was looking for a part-trained Labrador which I could train to track wounded deer. Garry answered my post and we started an interesting and informative conversation during which Garry worked out what I wanted or needed and gave me some excellent advice along the way. He then told me that he could source a fully-trained female Labrador of about two and a half years old; she had been field trial trained, had a lovely temperament and sounded like just the dog I wanted. I went to Garry's kennels on the last weekend of October to collect Sue and was delighted to see clean, well-constructed kennel runs full of happy, healthy & lively dogs - including the one which was to become mine, the lovely Sue. Garry put her through her paces on retrieval, allowed me to check her out fully, we discussed the contract, payment and all the other admin stuff - there was no sales pressure, it was open and honest conversation. The whole process from first contact to collection was smooth and professional, Garry and I checked each other out respectfully and honestly. I got the distinct, and welcome, impression that Garry is not the sort of man who would let one of his dogs go to just anyone. Garry has been free and ready with his advice since my purchase of Sue, giving plenty of useful pointers to someone like me who is getting back into dog ownership and training after a bit of a lay off. Sue is settling in nicely with our family and I hope to have her track her first deer soon. She may not have won any field trials championships before I got her, and I'm unlikely to take her there either, but the level of her abilities is just amazing. She is so eager to please, energetic and athletic, but totally biddable - I'm sure she knows what she's doing without much input from me. In short, she's exactly the dog Garry said he would obtain for me, I could hardly be happier. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the services of Garry if you want to source a hunting dog - whether pup or full grown dog. Thanks Garry for putting me and Sue together Trevor McMurray 10-11-2019
A Super GSP Bitch Pup Secured And Trained For A UK Client Superb results from our Serbian trainer and a stunning GSP bitch we secured for a UK client, who requested a trained hawking dog My GWP is now just 10 weeks old. When I first spoke to Gary he warned me that this pup would be forward going and full on as he was from Champion working heritage. I liked that very much, clearly someone who only wants his dogs to go to good working homes. My dog has been home a week now and is already retrieving a mini dummy every time, presenting it and waiting for a small treat, he has even pointed it to my surprise. I can honestly say I have never seen a puppy learn so fast. He's absolutely switched on, his nose is just into everything, biddable and clearly very intelligent. Virtually house trained in four days with just gentle guidance. What a dog, watch this space. Can't wait to get him on the moors in Scotland. Thanks Gary and Lucy, this is one very happy dog owner.
Kind regards John John Matcham 14/9/18 Technical Director Fischer Farms Ltd I have recently bought two fully trained Teckles from Garry. I am very happy with both dogs. They have both been well trained and looked after. Garry was very professional in sending me the full details of the dogs which were accurate. Garry is honest and welcoming, i hope to deal with him again in the future. Recommended for anyone looking for excellent working dogs. Both Teckles are a pleasure to own and i look forwards to many hunting trips with them. Matthew kersley 24/02/18 I Collected my srhp dog at 8 moths old from Garry just after Xmas. Garry described the dog to me as a “ideal Stalking dog and very biddable. Within the day he was settled and happy, After 3 weeks of having the dog he was very steady, and we had achieved a good level of obedience. The dog, although only 8 mths was very keen to use his nose, I let him play with a foot square of fallow hide on and off throughout the week. I decided to try him on a small track of 40 yards with another piece of hide and was extremely pleased with the result. Two days later I took the dog to Scotland Stalking, we would cross each and every bridge as and when we crossed it as long as I felt the dog was happy and learning. His steadiness made him a pleasure to have around. Within the hour I had a roe doe shot and she managed to make a good 70 yards through some thick woodland. I showed the dog the shot site and he was very keen,I slipped on the tracking lead and off we went. I could see the blood every now and then so was filled with confidence in the dog which I am sure he picked up on, we got to the roe without a single issue he was faultless I couldn’t possibly have been any more pleased, he was very pleased with himself and equally pleased with his reward. This dog will go from strength to strength unquestionably. There isn’t much you can buy these days that does what its designed to or supposed to do, however in my experience Garry’s dogs do exactly that and I have many years of enjoyment to look forward to with my dog. Thank you Garry Cheers Daz
