“WE TRAIN CHAMPIONS HERE” Veteran owned and operated, we take pride in providing the highest quality Labrador retriever training in the USA.
Zach Miller, the owner and founder of Southern Loon Retrievers™ has always had a passion for dogs and working dogs in particular; however, never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that he would make a life of it. Zach served with honor as a Sniper Section Sergeant with the 10th Mountain Division in the snow filled plains of Ft. Drum, NY. Upon returning home from a combat tour in Iraq, Miller found himself battling the demons of his experiences with no end in sight. When all things had seemed hopeless for him, he found a spark of light in a small lab puppy named Banjo who proceeded to save his life more than once. Miller found relief from the dark hole of PTSD through training labs for hunting. In the fall of 2019, the company was founded in northeastern Pennsylvania where it is headquartered today. Southern Loon Retrievers is proudly a member of D.T. Systems, Dixie Decoys and Drake Waterfowl Systems Pro-Staff, 737 Duck Calls, On-X-Hunt and Gunner Kennels.
