We bought Cody about 2 years ago, he is one of Duece and Queeny's
pups. What a fantastic
hunting dog and member of our family. Last season he was only a
year old but I was really impressed with his nose and how relentlessly
he works a field. If there is a bird in the field he will find it. I
recommend
Chris and 6 R Upland Kennels to anyone looking for a great GSP. |

I PURCHASED A FEMALE FROM 6-R ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. I
COULDN'T BE MORE PLEASED WITH THIS DOG. SHE HAS TRAINED VERY WELL, WORKS
VERY CLOSE AND STAYS CLOSE TO HOME. SHE'S THE FIRST DOG I'VE KEPT IN THE
HOUSE BECAUSE SHE'S VERY WELL BEHAVED. I WOULDN'T HESITATE TO ACQUIRE
ANOTHER DOG THROUGH 6-R'S KENNEL. I AM MORE THAN SATISFIED WITH "JG'S
LITTLE MISS EMMA". JERRY GRUENEBERG FROM BAILEY, COLORADO. |

We bought one of Mandy/Duece's pups in February from
Chris and just love her. She is the smartest dog we've ever had
and was pointing at 10 weeks. We are so pleased with our girl and can't
wait to use her this fall for hunting, she's already been flushing and
pointing when we are on walks. She's also very good with the kids and
is such a sweet girl. Amazing dog. I would recommend Chris's dogs to
anyone. |

I purchased a male pup from
Chris in early fall of 2009. Probably the biggest thing that
stands out is he's INTELLIGENT! A very quick learner, a lot of natural
ability, and an all around good looking dog. Thank you Chris, you're
great with dogs and a great guy to know. |

Sanders was a pup from Sarah and Dakota. 2008 was his first season
in the field hunting with me and my then 5 year old vizsla, Ruud. First
time out he followed me until Ruud pointed and retrieved a rooster.
Later that day Sanders pointed his first of MANY birds during the 2008
season. Durning training early this fall and a trip last week we to a
game farm, he picked up right where he left off last year. Multiple
double points, honored retrieves....they are great combo together. He is
a big boy, 75+ pounds, fantastic stamina....and funny
disposition.....great pointer and retriever. Fun to read about others
pleased with Dakota and Sarah.....I can see why. |

I purchased a pup from Chris not quite 2 yrs. ago. He is the fourth
German Shorthair I have owned, one at a time over 44 yrs.. I
didn't think I wanted another dog after my last one passed away on
Christmas Day 2007, but after looking at the pups on Chris's website I
fell in love with them.
The puppy I selected has more than lived up to expectations. When I took
the pup to my Vet. he said you have a good dog there and on my last
visit he said he didn't have to worry about that dog for 10 years. I had
trouble in the past with health problems for my Shorthairs so that made
me feel pretty good.
If you look at my dog you can see he is a Champion and he is also my
buddy, a real companion(sleeps on the bed with me) and goes eveywhere I
go. He is gentle and full of energy, I do not have to worry about him
around people no matter their age.
I constantly receive comments on what a good looking dog he is. Many
have asked me where I got him and of course I say from 6R Upland
Kennels.
He is a great hunter and can hunt all day long, I have never had a dog
with his energy and stamina. He isn't too crazy about water but neither
is he afraid of a bath.
I can only repeat what one fellow wrote, " You can't go wrong buying a
dog from Chris Riddle."

Our oldest son gave Sam a
German Short Hair Pointer
for his birthday. Chris, this breeder, knew just what Sam wished for
and was able to match the dream exactly. Annie should even be ready for
pheasant season this October.
Although we have had dogs ever since we were married, we have never had
this breed. Wow!!! Annie is the smartest, fastest dog we have ever
owned. She is gentle, yet not a lap dog- she's tough. Annie was fast
to learn her borders; we do not leash her except at parks. She loves to
do "the feather thing"- could point and retrieve when we picked her up
as a young pup. The first time she hears something, she remembers. She
loves her "kong" and enjoys getting the last dab of cream cheese from
it. She is the first dog we allow to sleep at the side of our bed; a
friend told us that's all right- just don't let them in bed (they think
they are 'people' then). We wouldn't even think of it. This already is
a stretch. Annie is not allowed on our furniture. She is in our house
with a Brittany, another combination breed, and a
miniature daschund (inherited). She is gentle in playing "chew
toy" with the other puppy who is 2 months younger.
Sam couldn't be happier. He is eager to get her out pheasant-hunting.
Thank you for making his dream come true.

Hello everyone. I wanted to leave my own little testimonial in
regards to my personal experiences with Chris and 6RUplandKennels.I was
searching for a trained
hunting dog for quite some time when I happened upon this site.I
contacted Chris and began a quite detailed conversation about my desires
in a hunting companion.I was in awe at the patience, and unending
helpfullness that I recieved from Chris about any and all inquiries and
concerns and questions that i had. His professionality and willingness
to aid his clientelle, in my opinion are unequalled by any other breeder
that I contacted. I adopted an
English Setter that needed a home from Chris and was very happy
with the dog. He did everything that i could ask for and more. It was
just as Chris said it would be. Well, I am here again, another
satisfied, repeat customer. This time, I will be adopted Duke, who I am
positive is going to be another wonderful and joyfull addition to uour
family.Thank you Chris for all that you have done I am so excited to be
adopting Duke that I'm sure I won't be sleeping tonight.
In my opinion, you are a breeder above and beyond, and also a friend I
am proud to have made. |

I like to tell you about myself i have a wife and four daughters and
i am 43yrs old and i am a disabled hunter. My love is
upland hunting i had 4 elhew pointers and 1 setter and all of
them did not work out. So i went on a hunt for a GREAT shorthair i
talked to many of kennels and know one would take the time to talk to a
person like me until i came across 6R kennels and Chris he took the time
to talk to me and asked me things like where i live what i hunt all
before i said anything about buying a pup. Well let me tell you i drove
him CRAZY and he hooked me up with a great male pup. He he could handle
me he can help anyone get a pup or stater or what ever you are looking
for. Chris is a great person and loves his shorthair. You cant find a
better kennel or breeder anyplace chris is a true people person! Thanks
Chris for all your Help and Time!! |

You have a great web site and some really nice dogs. I used to raise
gsp. but they have all passed away . they were mossegard blood and
rawhides clown . they were all good dogs I could put my hunting vest
down and lay a gun on it with the birds my gsp had found me and no one
had better touch any of it . I never trained them to be guard dogs they
just knew it was dads stuff and it had to stay till i returned . any way
love the breed I hope soon to be in a place where i can have another |

After about 15 to 25 emails to different breeders i finally got a
call back from one. Mike openly invited me up to hunt with his dogs,
from the time i arrived he was great to work with. I knew then that i
had found a good friend and breeder. Through the past few months (witch
seemed like forever) both Chris and Mike have both been there whether,
it was picking out a pup or just a
silly question I had. Just wanted yall to know how much Mia ( the
pups new name ) fit in perfectly.
Thanks Gryphon
Shorthairs and 6r Upland for the great pup looking forward to training
and hunting with yall. |

After searching the internet for what seemed like an endless time
(hate to say it but most of us have ended up a slave to the net) I
happened across the 6R website and Chris, I had talked to probably 10 or
more breeders who talked about their “products” and what “they had to
offer.” It wasn’t that way with Chris, these were “his dogs” and I
could tell he was not only proud of them (they were not in anyway a
product, but a labor of love) and was concerned with who purchased
them. First thing he did was invite me over to go out on a hunt with a
few dogs that he had available. So, I hopped in the truck and we met up
at his place in Grinnell. My immediate impression was how much he really
cares about his dogs!!! As we prepped to go out on the hunt, we talked
about the dogs he thought I might be interested in purchasing. I flat
out asked him “Which dog would you pick?” Without a hesitation, he
told me Dakota was the one. I took his word for it and Dakota was
everything he s!
aid he would be. I am proud to say that I took him home that day. The
next day with a little coaxing, Dakota let me know he was ready to get
out in the field; he hunted for me like he was a dog I had since he was
a pup. All I need to use is a whistle and even though I have a
shock collar on him, I have never had to use it.
I could go on forever about the experience that I had dealing with
Chris. Here are a few points on what sold me. His dogs have had
socialization they are friendly, want to be petted and please. I know
this because he invited me into his kennels to help feed and water, and
hunts with them. This isn’t a kennel that will take you out to a field
where he taught a dog to that it will find a bird in a certain spot and
a mechanical response rather that a drive to hunt and please, there are
no smoke and mirrors here. I could go on for pages but I will tell you
in closing this kennel I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to
purchase either a pup, started or finished dog, quality above and
beyond.
Please feel free to call or email me at anytime for a reference. One
last word, Chris is the kind of guy that you will think of as a friend,
not a guy just selling you a dog.

6R Kennels has
a tremendous line of Moesgaard shorthairs. After my seasoned male
shorthair passed away I completed an extensive search of kennels
(internet, friends of friends, phone call after phone call) with
bloodlines that would match up well with my 2 females. After the first
call to Chris I knew I had found where my next puppy would be purchased.
I can't thank Chris enough for fielding all my calls along the way and
taking the amount of time with me that he did when I picked up Chief.
Chris worked with me to pick a male pup that would meet my expectations
and serve as a stud dog for my kennel. Chief is coming along well at 6
months and I am currently working him on pigeons. If this continues,
Chief definitely has what it takes to be the future stud for
Turning Point
Kennel. I hope we
eventually get to run dogs together and you have a standing invitation
to hunt quail in my corner of the world. Once again, thank you for
allowing me to purchase a pup from the Dakota/Mandy litter ---Jeff |

Thanks Chris. Sarah's litter was great. There is a reason that I
will
only deal with Chris and the 6R Upland Family. He is very
professional and
has become like family. We hunt together, train together, and laugh
together and at each other. There is no reason for me to ever need to find
a
breeder for my dogs. They will always be bred to Chris's studs. I could
not ask for a more professional and good friend. THANKS CHRIS and the 6R
Upland Family. |

Chris has some awesome dogs and takes the time to make sure that the
right dog is matched to the right home. I was looking for a family dog
as well as a dog I can hunt with. Joker is a perfect match. He is great
with my 10 year old son and my 6 year old daughter. He is working well
with my 8 year old female GSP and is getting better by the day. |

Chris made my first pheasant hunt a great experience. His dogs did a
great job and we saw a lot of birds. I am already thinking about my next
trip to IA and the opportunity to hunt with 6R. |

We bought pointer pup male #1. He is a beautiful puppy with just the
best disposition I have ever encountered in a dog. He is smart,
friendly, and is making friends with our pampered cats. |

Chris was introduced to me by a friend who had known Chris through
bird hunting in Iowa. That contact resulted in my purchase of Moesgaards
Shelby. Shelby has been everything I had hoped for. She was started and
trained by Chris. Outstanding worker, pointer, and retriever in the
field. She is also an excellent family pet. Well mannered and even
tempered. Thanks to Chris I have a wonderful bird dog. |

We bought a male pup for our daughter. Chris was most patient with
us through all of our questions. Chris called to check on the puppy when
he was flown in. When the puppy got here and we are very thrilled, he is
quite striking and full of personality and has been very well cared for.
If I know someone who would like to buy a GSP I would send them to see
Chris. C. Martin |

I AM HERE TO SAY THAT CHRIS AND HIS DOGS ARE GREAT. I HAVE PURCHASED
A GSP FROM CHRIS ABOUT 4-6 WEEKS AGO AND SHE HAS BEEN AWESOME. HE IS
VERY GOOD AT LETTING ME CALL HIM AS WELL AS RUN TO HIS HOUSE FOR
TRAINING IDEAS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A
GSP. |

We recently purchased a pup from Chris 5 months ago, and we couldn't
be HAPPIER!!! This dog is absolutely phenomenal when it comes to the
field and at home. When we first got her she was already pointing and
holding at 8 weeks old. After 10 weeks Gabby showed so much promise that
by the end of the pheasant season she was already pointing and
retrieving birds in the field. In addition, Chris has been there for us
when we had questions, and has helped us out whenever we needed
advice/techniques about our new dog. We are so happy with Gabby and she
has truly become part of our family. |
