Have you tried Mike Coutu? He knows Chessies very well.
On EE view Premium for Colonial Club.

 

I have, never heard back. Sent multiple e-mails going back over the past year trying to join the club before we ended up bringing the pup home.

 

Give Wes Reed at Rise and Shine Retrievers a call. Contact information: riseandshineretrievers.com, 603 831-4689 or 603 269-0007. He breeds Chessies and Labs, is current President of the Granite State HRC. Even if NH is too far for you to travel he knows the Chessie community in New England and will be able to steer you in the right direction. Good luck.

Agree with cmccallum - not everyone uses email, give them a call.

 

Go to the American Chesapeake Club website under Regional Directors and contact Kenneth Lee. http://www.amchessieclub.org/RD/2017 Regional Directors East and Overseas 7-22-17.pdf

 

Buck Shope of Swift River Retrievers could certainly help you. He has helped more beginning handlers/trainers than anyone else in New England that I can think of.

He is a professional, so expect to pay.-Paul

 

I had contacted Buck and would love to have Drake go to him, just can't afford what he charges right now unfortunately.

 

A second on Buck. Also, Jim Pickunka (Conneticut) has worked with my guys for several years. You might also check with Yankee Waterfowlers HRC for groups.

 

Agree on Jim. Certainly a good choice as well.-Paul

 

Shoreline Retriever has training and sanctioned trials every weekend except this weekend. A members wife passed away. My number is 203-640-9897. Mike is away and won’t be back for awhile. But call him about training if he has room.

 

There is a new club - Chesapeake Bay Retriever Club of New England which is on Facebook. They had quite a few activities last year. I know that Kenneth Lee is involved with it which is why I suggested you contact him. You can send a message to the new club through Facebook.
