Retriever Training Success

Starts with the Right Coaching

Experience a Modern, Comprehensive Approach to Retriever Training – Online or In-Person

Helping you train your dog so you can be competitive at any level you choose.

After 27 years of retriever training, winning field trials and National Championships, I’ve found my greatest passion is sharing my experience and coaching people to train their own dog. I’m incredibly proud of my students who have gone on to win National Championships, National Amateur Championships, finished Master Nationals and titled their dogs.

Whether it's through one-to-one coaching, in-person workshops or my online training program FETCH, together we'll work to achieve your goals.

"When I got my first Labrador, I didn’t even know what a Junior Hunt Test was! Thankfully I found Kevin Cheff, and he (remotely!) coached me to Derby points, a Master Hunter and a Qualified All-Age dog! I’ve set big goals and I’m confident that Kevin will support me in getting there."

~ Kelsey Wehr, Otsego, MN

"Coach Cheff understands that each dog is an individual with unique talents as well as unique quirks and short comings. He also understands that each dog/handler team needs a unique training and “game day” program to maximize their potential."
