Training Quality Retrievers in Virginia
for Hunt Tests, Hunting and Companions
Our goal is to turn out well-rounded retrievers. Whether it is a hunting companion or just a dog you want to hang out with, Lick Creek Retrievers has a program for anything from Basic Obedience through Advanced Level gun dog work. We work very hard to produce a dog that you can be proud of. We encourage our clients to be involved as much as possible in the process
How we Train at our Facilities
Lick Creek Retrievers is located on a 400-acre farm in the mountains of Southwest Virginia. Our training grounds have both flat fields as well as rolling hills with varying types of cover. We have several technical ponds and hope to have another technical pond completed Summer of 2022. We have access to other nearby farms that allows us access to over 700 acres of training grounds. All of our kennels are indoors and are heated and cooled for your pet’s comfort. Each kennel has a Kuranda dog bed. Our kennels are cleaned on a daily basis.
