THIS WEEK'S GUESTS: BO BREWER AND MOLLY KAHN

Enjoy this week's episode as Maggie returns home after a long turkey season to sit down with Bo Brewer and Molly Kahn of Ridgemark Retrievers. Bo and Molly are the trusted experts behind Kate's gun dog training. Long-time listeners will know that Bo and Molly also trained Maggie's first-ever duck dog, Sissy over ten years ago. Upon getting Kate as a puppy, Maggie knew there was only one place she trusted with her new companion. Four years later, we look back on Kate's journey at Ridgemark Retrievers, her progress as a gun dog, and her hunting retriever title. Throughout the podcast, we learn more about the world of retrievers thanks to the knowledgeable duo, Bo and Molly. As the episode unfolds, they dive into exciting topics like field golden retrievers and Bo's very own duck-dog turned movie star who took the world by storm on the big screen while starring in the 2017 film, "A Dog's Purpose." Bo and Molly also take the time to educate listeners on important topics like how to pick a puppy, steps to take as a first-time gun-dog owner, as well as common mistakes for new retriever owners to avoid. If you are looking to get a hunting dog, already own a gun dog, or simply enjoy hearing about the love of retrievers from Arkansas duck hunters--this podcast is a great listen for you!

If you are considering utilizing a trainer to help your new hunting companion reach their highest potential, I highly recommend trusting Ridgemark Retrievers in Brookland, Arkansas.
