Dale Taylor started working with dogs along side his Grandfather, an avid Springer Spaniel man, at the
age of ten. His first hunting dog was a little Springer Spaniel pup named "Sue" that his Grandfather
bought for him in 1972. Dale recalls his Grandfather bringing pigeons out to the farm to develop a
shortcuts in the teaching stages of training that will allow you to shorten or more quickly advance to the
conditioning stages of training no matter what type of conditioning was going to be used. The
foundation was everything. Dale trained several different breeds of hunting dogs as kid growing up on
his family farm, selling them as started hunting dogs in the fall before Pheasant & Duck Season. His
favorite breed was Golden Retrievers.
At the age of 18, Dale started to Professionally Train, Handle and Trial UKC Treeing Walker
Coonhounds, titling his first customers dog a Grand Night Champion in 1982. Many wins came over a
4 year stretch, before switching back to Upland and Waterfowl Retrievers. Dale also majored in
Animal Science/Pre-Vet in college and relies on both his "on the job" training and his college
experience for health and nutrition of your dog.
Dale purchased his first Labrador in 1986. A little black female who was a daughter of "The Marathon
Man". Now for the first time training with the more advanced concepts in Hunting Retriever Training, he
quickly fell in love with the challenge and rewards associated with the advanced concepts of Hunting
Retriever Training and started down the road of becoming a full time trainer.
Dale specializes in Hunting Retriever Training and HRC/ NAHRA Hunt Test Training
Kris, grew up training and showing both pleasure and performance horses. She quickly was exposed
to the hunting dog world when she met Dale in 1984. At first Kris was an assistant trainer, throwing
marks for the retrievers and planting birds for the pointing dogs in for training, feeding & helping with
shots, etc. & whelping out the litters. As the part time kennel grew thru the 90's to more full time, Kris
took a very active role in training and her gentle handed training techniques quickly developed due to
her extensive background with livestock. She continued training horses as well, coaching their three
daughters to win multi National Championships.
Kris specializes in spaniel and pointing dog training.
Today, Dale and Kris strongly believe that they should never stop learning or seeking a new and better
way to communicate what they want with the dogs. With that in mind, our training programs are
designed around time tested fundamentals while at the same time using advanced techniques that
work with your specific dog. No two dogs are alike and training must fit the individual to accomplish the
goals the owners have. Our goal at Premier Gundogs is to see our customers and their dogs
successfully working together as a team either in the field hunting or competing in competitions of their
choice. If our customers are successful then we have been successful.

He has been featured in various magazines including Pointing Dog Journal, Quail Forever, Midwest
Game & Fish, etc. He has been featured on Pheasant Forever Television, syndicated outdoor talk
radio, etc. He has and continues to perform training seminar's and nutrition talks throughout the US
and has written several training articles for many different publications.
