Speak directly with the owners and or pro handlers of the pups from the first breeding. How better to make an informed decision about your puppy? If you are interested in learning first hand just how incredibly smart the offspring of this paring are, just give us a call or drop us a note. See pictures of Ice's first litter, and read personal testimonials from current owners on our new "Puppies" page. As of 11/9/09 the pups from Ice's first litter are now a year old. Already these pups have several accomplishments under their belts: Multiple titles in various Hunt Tests, Tournament Hunting victories, and much much more. These pups are passing tests, earning additional titles, and winning events every weekend. Perhaps even at a hunt test or contest near you! Another Upcoming "Ice" Litter Announcement Black Ice Retrievers and Black Jack Kennels are proud to announce the "repeat" breeding between two of the most decorative intelligent "natural pointing" labs you can find. 2xNC, 2.5xGMPR, HRCH Reno's Black Ice MH will be bred again to Black Jack Kennel's GMPR Calumet's Wild Card MH, QAA "Deuce" in December of 2009. Puppies should be born on 2/16/10. Back by popular demand, we will repeat the same breeding as Ice's first litter. "Why repeat the same breeding as last year?" The answer is quite simple. If one cannot find a better intelligent, EIC Clear, Pointing Stud, why settle for any thing less? Plus, when you have had 4 puppy's sold for more the 6 months, it's hard to turn away from a sure thing. 
Scooter a pup from the first Ice / Deuce litter earns 3 Titles before turning 7 months. At 6 month's this Ice's Pups official name was CP, SHR Black Ice's Super Sonic Scooter JH
Now let me define better. I am not convinced that there is a more intelligent, better pointing, better scenting, EIC clear, well decorated pointing lab stud in the country? If you know of one please call me "collect" so I can see that stud for myself. I haven't really looked lately but I did search for two years before breeding to Deuce last year. What made these pups so incredibly special is that both Sire and Bitch are extremely intelligent and have the hunt test titles at a very young ages to prove it. Both dogs were extremely easy to train from day one and do they love to work for you. These two animals (Ice & Deuce) are natural pointing labs. They both have superior noses and are bird finding machines. The first litter certainly proved out to be the real deal. All these pups pointed birds before they were 7 weeks old. Deuce and Ice both weigh in between 55 and 60 pounds and have very similar builds. Deuce and Ice are now 6 and 4 years old respectively. Both animals are in their prime and this next litter, like their first, will be extra special. Deuce has sired several litters before and he has thrown some very intelligent great natural pointing labs. So whether you are looking for a highly intelligent hunt test / field trial dog, or a very natural pointing Labrador to take upland bird hunting, this just might be the litter you have been waiting for. No matter what your game is; APLA, AKC, HRC, the Super Retriever Series, are any of the Bird Dog Challenge Tournaments for $, these puppies should prove to have the capabilities to run in any or all of these series if you wish. After all, that's what the parents of this forth coming litter have done, and they have done it well to say the least.
We strive to breed dogs that are extremely intelligent and thus are very trainable. Our pointing labs naturally point at very young ages or we don't campaign them as such, perhaps as others do. We breed for perfect health and great conformation. Above all we breed for great temperament and a superior sense of smell. After all, a dog can't find or point what they can not smell. We enjoy placing puppies in homes where they will become the best possible versions of themselves. Labradors are a working breed and they are happiest when they get to do so. Our hope is to provide long lasting family working companions that will give you a life time of memories, the way our dogs have for us for over a quarter of a century. We love to stay in contact with the owners of our pups and love to hear how they progress. This tells us how we are doing, which to us, means more than all the titles ever will! Our litters are raised in our home and not kept in outside kennels, we breed a maximum of 2 litters a year so that we have the time to work with and socialize each and every pup. Our puppies are raised underfoot and get acquainted with the real world, real fast. Our litters socialize with other dogs of various ages from 5 weeks on. Monkey see - monkey do. Our adult dogs are well mannered and very obedient, so our puppies imitate good examples.
Don't be surprised if your Black Ice retriever pup is potty trained within a week. Past puppies that we have kept for ourselves have been completely potty trained by 8 weeks of age. We are accepting emails or calls now from potential buyers. Worthy owners will train their puppies to become the best possible versions of themselves. We do not dictate who should train your pup or whether you will campaign it in hunt tests or in tournament hunting events. But we do expect our owners to develop the dog for some sort of working environment.
