I am the owner of Bosley a 3 year old Yellow lab that currently has his HRCH title and SH title we plan to further these titles with the help of Jim. Bosley has achieved these titles from the excellent training that Stillwater Kennel / Jim Manson has done. I now take Bosley dove, duck and goose hunting. His marking and handle is top notch.

My problem was my year old chocolate female (Sadie) would not pick up a dead dove. Also some obedience problems. A friend suggested Jim Manson. I couldn't be happier with the results of the training he accomplished! Not only is he a top notch trainer, my dog was cared for like it was his own. Had the opportunity to meet his great family and plan to take Sadie back for some "polishing up" prior to this years hunting seasons. I highly endorse Jim's operation.

Wanted to Thank Jim Manson and his wife Diane. They have trained our 3 year old lab Max. Jim got him through his HRCH Finished Title and his AKC Master Hunt Title on him this year.
Then they took him (Max) to the HRCH Fall Grand Hunt in Alabama and got Him into the third series. Jim and Diane are great people, and Jim is a great dog trainer/handler.. I goose and duck hunt, with Max, His handling and marking is amazing all thanks to Jim Manson. I highly recommend Jim Manson at STILLWATER KENNELS...

I am the owner of an almost 2 year old GSP...I dropped Bronson off last March with Jim. At that time Bronson was a crazy non obedient hard headed dog... after a couple of months I was going up to train with Jim and saw a different and better dog each time I went. Bronson will now water retrieve also as Jim took him with his labs when duck training.. Jim transformed Bronson into a hunting dog that I wanted....I plan on taking him back this spring to have Jim work with him again...I now have a crazy obedient fun hunting companion.

I've owned, titled and campaigned many labradors. Due to family and work obligations in the last few years, I had Jim Manson lead one of my current dogs, "Ticket" to her Master Hunter title, and she also qualified for the Master National in 2015. I would certainly recommend Jim to anyone in the market for a hunting retriever/gun dog trainer.

We met Jim Manson when we joined West Central Ohio Retriever Club. Our dog needed fine tuning and Jim did just that. He is great with dogs. He gains their respect. In addition to training the dog, helps the owner with handling skills.

My schedule at work and other client dogs didn't allow me the time to work all of my own dogs so I sent Kay to Jim back in March of 2016. I want to thank Jim for a remarkable job he did with Kay this past Hunt Test season. He took her from no HT experience through JH, SH & in to MH tests. She earned 2 MH passes at only 20 months old! Kay will go back to see Jim in the spring of 2017. 1st class service and results, Thanks Jim!
