Member of the North American Pudelpointer Alliance (NAPPA)
Our Pudelpointers only go to hunters. We are committed to producing versatile gun dogs that are calm in the home but “turn it on” in the field and exhibit an awesome balance of cooperation and a tenacious drive to produce game for the gun. Our breeding program strives for the complete gun dog; intelligence, drive, cooperation, and coat.
One of the best things about producing outstanding dogs for outstanding people are the relationships built. I train and hunt with several that started as “clients” and turned into solid friends.
I am so proud of the road Jason has taken with the Pudelpointer as a breed and his role on NAPPA’s board as one of their directors.
I met Jason Mix many years ago when I sold him his first Pudelpointer. Later when he was deployed to Germany by the military he had me work with his second Pudelpointer that he imported while stationed there. Over the years I have encouraged Jason to take an active role as a breeder as his honesty and dedication to the breed is rarely seen in today’s world of hunting dog enthusiasts. I am so proud of the road Jason has taken with the Pudelpointer as a breed and his role on NAPPA’s board as one of their directors. Jason’s military past and background has certainly indoctrinated one very fine husband, father, and young man that continues to make my heart proud…….Bob Farris

They are good hard hunting dogs!

Paladin’s Field Frenzy “Duke” is another one of our young dogs proving that a good hunting dog can have an excellent off switch.
Duke, owned by Josh, is out of our Winnie × Lido litter. At just over six months old, he has already earned a NAVHDA Natural Ability Prize I, hunted in three states, and found success on several different species of wild birds.
But that is only half the story.
Duke often goes to work with Josh, where he spends his days relaxing in the principal's office. Apparently, he has become pretty popular with the students and staff, who are more than happy to shower him with attention.
That balance is something I put a lot of value on in our breeding program. We want dogs that can hunt hard, cover ground, and give everything they have in the field, but also have the mental stability to settle down when the work is done.
Duke is showing both sides at a very young age.
From chasing wild birds across the prairie to sleeping in the principal's office, I think he's figuring out that life is pretty good!
Great job, Josh. It's been fun watching this little guy develop.
Paladin’s Earl Rigsby “Riggs” is getting his first taste of North Dakota duck hunting!
Riggs is out of Paladin’s Mission First “Leia” × Windy Sage Rudy Red “Red. He is owned by Grant and Tasha, two people who definitely know how to hunt hard and are committed to giving this young dog every opportunity to do what he was bred to do.
Like so many of our Paladin puppy owners, Grant and Tasha have become more than just customers. They've become hunting partners, training partners, and good friends.
We had the opportunity to hunt together last fall, and throughout this training season, they made the drive of a couple of hours several times to come work Riggs and help him develop.
That kind of dedication says a lot. They have put in the time, done the work, and given Riggs the foundation and opportunities he needs.
Now comes the fun part. It's time to reap the rewards of all that training, get after the wild ones, and start making memories behind a young dog.
I'm looking forward to watching Riggs develop through his first hunting season and hearing about all the adventures ahead.
Good luck, Grant and Tasha. Enjoy every minute of it!
Paladin’s Ethos “Maggs” is having one heck of a first hunting season!
Born in late March, Maggs is barely six and a half months old, and what she and Brad have accomplished already is pretty incredible.
She recently earned a maximum 112 Prize I in her NAVHDA Natural Ability test, but what impresses me even more is what she is doing on wild birds.
7 differant scpecies From ducks and geese in the marsh to doves, snipe, prairie chickens, and sharptailed grouse in the uplands, Maggs is already getting the kind of wild bird experience that develops a truly versatile hunting dog. And she is doing all of this in her very first season!
Maggs is out of Paladin’s Mission First “Leia” × Windy Sage Rudy Red “Red.” This is a breeding I put a lot of thought into, combining Leia's natural cooperation and temperament with Red's proven consistency, drive, and versatile ability.
As a breeder, this is what I hope to see. Not just a good test score, but a young dog with the mental maturity, natural ability, and desire to go out and do the job she was bred to do.
And Brad deserves a lot of credit. Since retiring from coaching high school football, he has poured that same dedication and work ethic into developing Maggs. He has given her the exposure, opportunities, and guidance to let that natural ability develop.
Good genetics give you the potential. Good ownership and time in the field allow that potential to become something special.
And apparently, when she's not hunting, Maggs knows how to relax a little too!
I'm sure proud of this young dog and what Brad is doing with her. The best part is that they're just getting started.
I have to give an update on 5 month old Riggs. ND pheasent opener was yesterday. On his first day pheasent hunting he produced 4 birds and started tracking instantly with great desire! He has pointed over a dozen birds in 4 hrs of hunting the last two mornings. He also tracked a wounded bird and pointed it! The light is on ! We had our birds by 10 AM each morning.
Red found and stuck it. Pup stumbled through it. Adam clipped it but it sailed down the valley and around a hill. Halo made an outstanding retrieve of a couple hundred yards. …
Adam was able to harvest his first Prairie Chicken today.
Unfortunately, we only got one walk in before it got incredibly hot, but it was a good one. Watching your son get his first prairie bird like that makes the whole trip worth it.
The heat cut the day short, but the memory is made.

Oskar is learning to honor on his own. Or at least, he’s learning to stop and not run right through the middle.
It’s fun watching the intelligence of this pup. You can almost see the wheels turning in his little head.
Oskar is out of Winnie by Lido.
