I am a part-time trainer with the goal of serving dog owners all across the country, training dogs as a full time career. I have been training pointing dogs since 2004 and have a true passion and devotion to all things related to bird dogs. I want your trust in me to care for, develop, and train your dog at a professional level. I understand that dog owners are hesitant in leaving their dog with someone and hope the information in this site will ease your uncertainties. I want your business and will do my best to meet or exceed your expectations. Thank you for taking the time to visit us and I hope you take a look at some of our other pages. If I don’t provide you with the information you are looking for, feel free to contact me and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

What can I do for you?

Hillfire Kennels specializes in gun dog training. Yes, I love, own, hunt, trial, and breed German Shorthaired Pointers, but cater training services to all pointing breeds. Hillfire Kennels accommodates safe, clean and secure kennels for dogs in training and also offers private by-appointment sessions if you are training your dog yourself. We offer German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) stud services through natural, fresh chilled, and frozen semen breedings. We can ship chilled or frozen semen upon your request. We raise GSP Puppies from proven sires and dams. Our puppies are socialized, come with a health guarantee and are current on all vaccinations. We have started and trained dogs available for sale for those who don’t want the unknown outcome and time devotion involved with raising a pup. For local customers in south central MN, Hillfire Kennels offers boarding services for your dog while you are on vacation. There is no place like home, but while your dog is with us we will do our best to keep your k-9 companion comfortable and happy.
