Los Gauchos Kennels Duck Hunting Retrievers for Sale Duck hunting dogs Goose hunting dogs Every year at Los Gauchos, we have clients say, “I wish my dog hunted like that.” Many of these owners have had their dogs trained by pros, but all too often the dog does not get the follow up experience to become fully developed.
Once the skills are learned, the dog needs to practice and hunt as much as possible. Because of work and family obligations, most owners can’t spend enough time in the field, or don’t have the hunting success (low limits, or lack of game) for the dog to ever reach his or her top potential. Every one of our dogs are AKC titled in hunt tests and/or field trials, force-fetched, and collar conditioned. But most importantly, they have all retrieved literally thousands of wild ducks—all carefully logged on a daily basis. They define the most experienced duck hunting veteran dogs in existence.

The art of hunting wild ducks is so ingrained in our animals, that they require no early fall tune up. They make perfect house pets, and when you put these dogs in a blind they know it is time for business, and hunt aggressively, confidently, and gracefully. All dogs are priced between $5,000 and $7,000 dollars, and we offer a money back guarantee on all of the animals. To qualify for purchase, you must buy a hunt from us and work with the dog(s) on your trip.
We believe that this is the only way for you to really see what these dogs are capable of, and if the dog will work well for you. Equally, we have a responsibility to the dog to ensure that you are a stable, responsible, and suitable owner—because we love them! Now, let’s have two leading authorities on dogs, and dog training—as well as former Los Gauchos Clients, weigh in on the subject:
If it takes birds to make a bird dog -- and it does -- then it takes retrieves to make a retriever. And I can think of nowhere else where a dog can get as many opportunities to learn to be a finished retriever, to burn the knowledge into his brain and his soul, like he can as a Los Gauchos do-it-all dog. Anyone who gets one of these Labs has a partner that has fetched more ducks than the dogs did during the heyday of the market hunter. The phrase "been there and done that" is overworked, but when it comes to George's dogs, it's spot-on.

"Have you ever wondered if there was a Heaven for retrievers? A place where there are more ducks than the stars in the sky? A place where a dog can retrieve more ducks in a week than most dogs can retrieve in a life time? I found this “Retriever Heaven” and it’s called South America. Being a professional dog trainer, watching the Los Gauchos Retrievers was truly a highlight of my trip. These retrievers: Fred, Lefty, Tommy, Lilly, and Gipper are true professionals in every sense of the word. Never missing a beat, the dogs worked in AM and PM shifts, retrieving hundreds of bird per week in Uruguay rice fields chock full of deep gumbo mud—and also in cold water playa lakes in Bahia Blanca The dogs are well bred, well-behaved, and most of all loving life in Retriever Heaven."
