In my 20 plus years of experience training and competing in Retriever Field Trials at a National level, I have met trainers and have been to kennels all across the country, and in my opinion Full Throttle Kennel is a first class operation. Jessie works tirelessly training and caring for the dogs. The amount of preparation and attention to detail that she puts in to her work are second to none. I’ve witnessed the hard work and care first hand and I’ve seen it pay off not only in the field while hunting, but also in both Hunt Tests and Field Trials. If you are looking for the right place to give your puppy or adult dog the best chance to succeed I recommend Jessie Richards and Full Throttle Kennel.

Jessie is completely invested in her career and dedicated to fully developing a dog’s innate ability. Jessie has years of training experience and was mentored by some of the top trainers in the field. She consistently works her dogs several times a day and uses a well developed plan to introduce and build upon concepts that are then applied in the field. Jessie is fair. Dogs learn differently and training is modified as necessary until concepts are mastered. Finally, There can be no hesitation where I am leaving my dog. Full Throttle Kennel is maintained to a very high standard and may very well be the best kept facility I have visited. Jessie has trained two of my Labrador retrievers that hunt and run hunt tests and field trials. She is currently training a third. She also has encouraged me to attend training days to gain first-hand experience handling my dogs. I have referred several friends and acquaintances to Jessie and Full Throttle Kennel, all of whom are very pleased, and will continue to do so in the future!
