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 100’s 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 kids that help him out from time to time!

MY FAVORITE 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!
