Kevin Cheff, The Retriever Coach
Over the past 30 years, Iā€™ve trained and handled some incredible retrievers, including 6 Canadian National Champions, multiple U.S. and Canadian National Finalists, and dozens of field champions with hundreds of all-age points.
But in 2015, I made a shift.
I stepped away from training dogs full-time and leaned into what had become my greatest passion: coaching people and helping them understand how to train their own dogs.
I love helping passionate amateurs learn the art and science of retriever training - guiding them through the tough stuff, building their confidence, and watching their dogs thrive.
Because thereā€™s nothing more rewarding than standing beside a dog youā€™ve trained yourself... knowing every step, every lesson, every challenge got you there.
