Matotoland Kennel still training..




Dollar & Jesse backing Dixie on a great find!
With burnt grass and almost no cover the birds could not hide enough to get away from Dixie.

Matotoland Kennel Season coming to a end for 2013......

                                             Western Cape
                                                 Highveld
                                                  Lowveld

Making the most of hunting season...

Letting my best friends out to have a run and put some birds up for Andrew and I is what life is about. This statement only carries value if you are a dogging man with a hunting problem. The season is drawing to a end.......

Hope the birds breed well for next season and hopefully next year will not be so dry.

A Good Day's Hunting - HPR Hunting dogs

We had good day out the dogs put up many birds. Scenting was good birds to die for, we had some champion doing the shooting.

Bullet, Dollar, Jesse, Dixie & Ike the bird producers on the day. Bullet had the first work with Ike & Dixie ending the day with great finds. Dixie on the day taking the best find by a dogs hair, she not only produced birds but a duiker and a rabbit closing the deal with single find witch the other dogs had left behind!

A great day spent with good company & good dogs and plenty birds with a great breed these are top HPR dogs(Hunt Point Retrieve)

Matotoland Jesse

Jesse has matured and proved to have a good nose to she was holding her point on birds that were some distance from her. Jesse has the potential to do very well this year.

Matotoland Kennel - Wildrose Dixie


Dixie is looking better every day we are at the point where we can start shooting birds over her. She is steady to flush & shot NOW we need to get her steady on drop.

She is a little barn burner with a retrieving drive of note, this will be interesting to see how long it will take to get her steady to drop.

Dixie will have great year hunting with us if she can control the burning desire to find & retrieve birds.
