Background
I've been training dogs professionally since the summer of 2012, after graduating from Clemson University with a degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Biology. I spent a year working and apprenticing under some of the best professionals in the business, before setting up on my own in the spring of 2013, as the owner and head trainer at Mossy Pond Retrievers North. Since then, I have earned 5 Grand passes, 3 Grand Hunting Retriever Champions, 7 Master National Passes, 2 QAA dogs, and have qualified for the SRS Crown Championship in 2012, 2013, 2014, and am currently qualified for the 2015 Crown Championship with a top 6 finish in every SRS event I have competed in. We currently have 11 dogs qualified for the 2015 Master National. In addition to running UKC Hunt Tests, AKC Hunt Tests and Field Trials, and the SRS, we have built countless gun dogs for the keen outdoorsman.
Why I Use SportDOG Brand
With a love and passion for retriever training like no other, I take my profession very seriously. Whether I'm making minor adjustments to a gun dog, tuning them up for the hunting season, or implementing a correction on one of our students the week before Nationals that is hundreds of yards away, the demand is always the same... My e-collar can never let me down. Day in and day out, I know that when I reach for my SportDOG Brand collar it will be reliable, and that's why you’ll never see anything else in my hand.
Favourite Products
The SD 2525 is by far the best product I’ve ever used. A transmitter that's durable enough to outlast anything you can throw at it, and at the same time also capable of finessing corrections with the options of low, medium, and high stimulation with only 2 buttons to concern oneself with makes this dog trainer’s life much easier.

Owning Labrador Retrievers since the age of 9 has given Lynne a rare opportunity. She learned to listen to her dogs. They have taught her more than she has taught them, and to think otherwise would be a mistake on her part, according to Lynne. She has had the pleasure...

Patrick Flanagan
I grew up with a few gundogs. 2 lovely little Brittany Spaniels and a few very athletic German Shorthaired Pointers. After I left the Navy I wanted to start hunting the uplands again, but birds were scarce and my readiness for a dog was not in the...
