Stud Dogs

Selected for drive, intelligence, and instinct.

Every stud dog plays an important role in the breeding decisions made at Dawson Lake Bretons. Each contributes qualities I value while helping shape future breedings and the continued direction of the breeding program.

About This Dog

Tank is a powerful, high-drive male with exceptional instinct, intelligence, and desire. The moment the tailgate drops, he knows it’s game time. He naturally adjusts his range and application to the cover, working methodically within gun range in dense grouse cover while confidently reaching out on the open prairies in search of sharptail grouse. An exceptional nose, stylish intensity on point, and a cooperative nature allow him to hunt independently while remaining connected to his handler. Whether hunting pheasants, quail, ruffed grouse, woodcock, sharptail grouse, or Hungarian partridge, Tank has proven himself across a variety of upland game birds.

Away from the field, he is affectionate, loyal, naturally protective, rides quietly in the truck, has a reliable off switch, and is always aware of the people and world around him. He is as dependable around the kennel as he is in the field.

About This Dog

Skip was my first Epagneul Breton and the dog that introduced me to the breed. He was a kind, loving dog with a strong desire to please, an even temperament, and a natural ability in the field. At home, he was calm, relaxed, and happiest simply being with people. While Skip is no longer part of Dawson Lake Bretons, his impact on the kennel continues through Tank and the role he played in its early years.
