Gun Dog Breeder Extraordinaire

I, Chris Phillips, the owner of Briarwoods GunDogs, have owned and trained many versatile hunting dogs through the years. You can count on me to get complete versatility from our German Wirehairs, Shorthairs and Hunting Terriers (Jagdterriers) when trained and handled properly. It is our goal to breed for ultimate versatility in our dogs.

It was during the late 1990s and early 2000s that we transitioned from single-task dogs to the versatile European hunting breeds. We have a record of owning and training a wide variety of hunting dogs from curs and hounds to retrievers.
