We really like the roto molded Ruffland kennel. They come in various sizes and configurements. We have two intermediate suv models with a solid lower half and find they are perfect for most of our dogs. You could size up to a large with an insert to adjust size as the puppy grows if you know your dog is going to be taller/bigger at full development.

Above are images of a puppy backpack and a puppy sling that are wonderful for taking your puppy with you into public places, until they have their full set of vaccinations! Good bonding and good socialization time as well! These items, and items like it can be easily found on Amazon or Chewy!
We have been hearing good things about the Halo GPS Wireless Fence System, where you can set virtual boundaries for your dog, wherever you go.
We buy most of our dog food and puppy toys from Chewy! Press on the link above!
Panacur (Fenbendazole) is one of the safest, effective dewormer medications we use and like our puppy owners to purchase and use as well. There is a link to an excellent article on our Articles Page that goes into detail about the benefits of using fenbendazole.

Standing Stone offers an excellent puppy training program. We also love their Easy Lead leash! They have a nice assortment of puppy training videos on you tube as well!
A soft puppy bumper is good to have for retrieving work, as well as a hard plastic one with hex grippers on it and even a Dokken Dead Fowl trainer to mix things up! These are not toys and should be put up when not being used for a training session. White and or white/black combo are good to start with. Avoid other colors for now as the color orange does not show up well for a dog. At the beginning, a puppy needs to be able to see the bumper.
These can all be found on Gun Dog Supply. 
The Wildrose Way by Mike Stewart is another of our favorite basic puppy training you tube video series.

We have trusted Paw Print Genetics (now a subsidiary of Neogen/ Canine Health Check) for many years now. They are originally from our Spokane, WA area and have always been very accessible to answer any genetic questions we have had. We have tried other companies, and while many of these companies may be a "good deal", we have found it is hard to talk with anyone with questions.
Paw Print Genetics has remained very transparent, educational, thorough, and great to trust our dog's health care and breeding decisions with. We have found so many good things and good prices on Gun Dog Supply from our Dogtra 2700 E-collars to our waterproof colorful collars with brass name plates, dog training gear and dog training dvd's and books!!!
A good dog whistle is a must for recall and commands. The Acme 211.5 Alpha dog whistle is a good one, and can be purchased from Gun Dog Supply using the link on the the picture above. (This is the closest I can come to imitating Jim's recall whistle he creates with his mouth....).
