Ricky is one of the most experienced
waterfowlers I know. He focuses on training dogs for the
waterfowler, to give the hunter the best hunting experience
with his dog. You can count on Shady Grove Kennels to provide
a great dog for the true waterfowler -- they get the job done
in the field, but they make great companions for the family at
home, too.

Shady Grove Kennels owner, Ricky Coward, has
introduced me to waterfowl and migratory bird-hunting with a
dog. His expertise and professional level of training has
enabled me not only to have a high-powered retriever, but a
loving companion for my wife and three-year-old son. Through
his honesty and commitment, Ricky provides the dog and its
owner an exceptional start together. As a trainer, he is
second to none.

Ricky has been my hunting partner for more
than 16 years and we've always used well-trained retrievers,
with great results, thanks to him! Shady Grove Kennels works
hard to raise and train quality hunting dogs...I know, I have
one of them!
Bill Goff, waterfowl guide for SC Waterfowl
Association and experienced hunter, Columbia, SC
I'm grateful to Ricky for all the great work
he did with our dog, Mocha. She always seemed to be
hard-headed, but now we are able to spend time with her and
not worry about her not listening. We also purchased a dog
from Ricky, and he could not be better. After hunting with
this quality of dog, I now realize that a good dog makes the
hunt.
