Flying Squirrel Retrievers

09/14/2025

I’ve been very behind on posting updates!

A few weeks back we attended a dock dogs event with Poppy and Winnie. Poppy hadn’t been off the dock in a year, and it was Winnie’s first time! Poppy got herself a new personal best of 13’ 8” and a third place overall in the novice division and Winnie gained confidence on the dock and a PB of 6’3” and a second place overall in the amateur division.

We went to an AKC show last weekend, with Winnie and Roo, and Roo got herself a Group 4 placement.

And a UKC show yesterday finished Winnie’s CH title with a Group 2 Placement against some very lovely Gun Dogs!

Koda, Flying Squirrel Tell Everybody I’m On My Way, played in his last B-Pup class today. BOB, and played in the group ring! Can’t wait to see how he and owner Cailin do in the big boy ring!

Poppy did it again! Going 4 for 4 on her HRC/UKC Started title passes!
We are so proud of our girl making quick work of her titles!

Again, a huge thank you to Matt of Wanderlust Kennel for putting so much into her, and handling her at her tests! And for him and his family loving her like their own while she’s with them!

And as always, a big thank you to Danielle of Rimfire Retrievers for trusting us with this wonderful girl!

We are happy to have her home, and look forward to jumping at a Dock Dogs event this weekend!

Poppy had another great weekend with her trainer Matt at Wanderlust Kennel! They traveled up to ME to compete in the Penobscot Hunting Retriever Club AKC tests, and she went two for two on her passes! Getting her half way to her AKC Junior title!

A bit thank you again to Matt of wanderlust_kennel for handling her and making her shine! And of course to Danielle of Rimfire Retrievers for placing this special and wonderful girl with us! 🤎

What a weekend our girls had! To say I’m proud of them would be an understatement!
Poppy ran her first hunt test this weekend at the Granite State HRC Club tests and is two for two on her UKC/HRC Started passes! A huge thank you to her trainer Matt at Wanderlust Kennel for all you’ve put into her, and for handling her!

While Poppy was retrieving birds, I had Bo, Winnie, and Roo out at the American Eskimo Dog Club of New England UKC show on Sunday. Roo played in the puppy class full of some really lovely puppies! While she didn’t place, her brother, Koda, took 4th! We are so proud of him and his mama Cailin for getting out there and getting in the show ring for the first time! I can’t wait to see what they accomplish going forward!
In show one, Bo took BOB! She did so good for her first time out!
In show two, Winnie Winnie was BOB, with Bo taking Reserve to her. She then went on to take a Group 1 against some lovely dogs in the Gun Dog group!

With the nice weather and more adventures with our dogs, it’s a good time to check and restock our first aid kit we keep in our car!
We also keep the same supplies in our kennel and house!
The car kit does have some human things in it too :)

What is in your first aid kits for you and your pups?

**Moana has found herself the most wonderful home full of love and adventure!**

Moana is still in search of a couch to call her own!
This girl will make someone an awesome active pet, sport or working dog, or fun show prospect! She is a quick learner, and loves to please! I
Can see her doing super well in rally, trick training, scent work ect.

She is 3 months old, UTD on her puppy vaccines, learning leash manners and basic commands,
She is crate trained, and working on house training…. (I still use a litter box in the house at night 😅)

Please send us a message with any questions!

A big thank you to Majenli Creations for our lovely new binder to hold all our dog’s info and records! It came out wonderfully!

Finding high value training treats can be a battle at times! We love using Redbarn Premium Pet Products Air Dried food as training treats! The dogs love them, and they are complete and balanced, so we don’t have to worry about giving too many and throwing meal balances out of whack! redbarninc
