INT CH/VC Grouse Point's Blitz
Blitz is a pup from Klaus and Gretel, whelped in 2003. He was retrieving tennis balls at 4 weeks of age, and Howie had his training fairly advanced by 6 months old.

Blitz has earned his AKC Master Hunter title, international champion title, NAVHDA Natural Ability Prize II, and NAVHDA Utility prize I. He is qualified to run in the 2007 NAVHDA Invitational. I have had the chance to train with Howie and blitz and have Klaus braced with them in the field, Blitz is an outstanding dog that will do well in any venue that Howie chooses to run.

We were looking for a great hunting dog and family companion that would take to the grouse woods and pheasant fields. What we got from Carey McMillan with Cody is a real gamer for all that and more including abundant character. Cody has an intense drive and desire for the woods, water and fields. From the day we brought Cody home he has been a natural retriever carrying anything he can put in his mouth. We live on a lake and he took to the water immediately. He has real steadiness in the field, is a natural backer and great with his water work. Cody loves to hunt and train and is very cooperative wanting to learn and be challenged. He is a great house dog and fun addition to our family.
