BACKGROUND
Chris owns and runs Backwater Cypress Retrievers in North-Central Arkansas. After starting back in 2016 with just a couple of dogs, he has built his business up to training a great number of dogs from many different states. He has hundreds of acres in his operation to train on, as well as numerous ponds to use. He runs the business and does all of the training on his own; the only assistant trainers are his young children who help him out from time to time!
WHY I USE SPORTDOG
The customer service they provide cannot be matched; they respond quickly and genuinely care to get your needs taken care of. Plus, the products are top of the line!
MY FAVOURITE PRODUCT
I absolutely love my SportTrainer 875! The screen is so helpful, and I love how you can change the settings. My dogs immediately responded perfectly to it; I could not be more pleased with it!
