After meticulously combing the databases of dog trainers in Wisconsin, we brought our dog, Jake, to Fly-n-Gun Kennels for training in upland bird hunting and obedience. We consider Jake a son, so it was very important to us that we found someone we could trust to provide the best care and training. As soon as we began talking to Craig we could sense his passion for dogs and his love for training and hunting with them. As he went on discussing the training techniques he utilizes, we realized his love for dogs permeates through the way in which he trains them. He views and treats the dogs he has in training like they are his own. He literally "has a conversation" with the dogs and uses persistence until they can understand the concept.
Not only does Craig spend many dedicated hours working with the dogs, but also clients as well. I was so impressed with the way Craig encouraged us to learn and understand the concepts he was teaching the dogs. It was really fun and interesting to take an active role in the training of our dog. I wouldn't have done it any other way.
After the initial month of training put on Jake, we decided to have Craig put an additional month on him and have attended our first field trial with Craig. Not only are we extremely satisfied with the way in which Craig trained Jake, but we have gladly referred others to him, whom were also satisfied, and we will continue to do so.

We have known Craig and Teri Steinbach since at least 1998, and have had the good fortune of having Craig train three of our dogs, and many of the puppies from litters we have had. We have witnessed first hand the care and professionalism he takes with the dogs entrusted to him. He has always treated our dogs as if they were his own.
