"If I had to do this over again I would be purchase the Retriever University Program before ever buying a gun dog. Marty has hit a homerun with this program. He has created one of the most comprehensive online gun dog training tools on the market! The Retriever University courses have helped build a foundation for me and my dog that I use every day. They help you guide your dog from a puppy to a well-mannered accomplished gun dog. Marty lays out a format that is very easy to follow and understand. This is the best purchase I have made in a long time!"

"We've used the Retriever University system to train several of our Labradors, as well as many client dogs with great success. Oak Lane Retrievers fully endorses RU to our many followers, and clients. RU’s training is straight forward and easy to understand for people new to the gun dog world as well as experienced trainers. "

Kristy Bowditch
Owner Oak Lane Retrievers

"Boy, what an awesome tool! Marty has knocked this out of the park! Words can’t describe the rewarding feeling of having a really good dog, especially when you train the dog yourself. At 6 months, I invested in RU and we haven’t looked back. Marty has been very helpful whenever we hit obstacles. The best part of it was having my dog with me during training. "
