EP #103 Dakota Best left a career as a financial advisor to launch Blue Wing Kennels in Weimar, Texas. In this episode, he talks with Kenneth Witt about starting a retriever-training business, building a kennel from the ground up, and balancing long days with family life.
Dakota explains the differences between Master National, SRS, and field trials, what makes a great retriever, and how he works with soft or nervous dogs by building trust before applying pressure. He also shares his approach to breeding, training in the Texas heat, and growing Blue Wing Kennels without losing the personal connection with clients and dogs.
If you love retrievers, hunt tests, or the behind-the-scenes reality of turning a passion into a business, this conversation is for you.
