Henderson, Tennessee
Background
Chris Scott owns L&D Retrieving in Henderson, Tennessee. He has been training and running AKC and UKC Hunt tests for over 20 years. He has trained thousands and titled hundreds of retrievers. In 2014, he built a new 3,000 square foot kennel. The kennel is equipped with Mason kennels and is temperature-controlled. His operation spans 400 acres with a technical water pond and natural ponds. He does all his own training, from the young dogs to the older ones. He builds them from the ground up, without any assistant trainers. He has been using SportDOG collars for years.
Why I Use SportDOG Brand
"The number one reason I use them is the customer service," Chris says. "When you use training collars for a living like I do, there's nothing more important. That's why I choose SportDOG."
