One Thibodaux kennel.

Timothy Caillouet

A gun-dog kennel, run like one.

TIMCO Kennels is run the way you'd want your own dog handled — patient on the foundation, demanding where it counts, and honest about what a dog needs to be a real partner come the season.

Every dog gets consistent, hands-on training start to finish, with daily field and water work on the kind of rural ground a Bayou Region dog actually hunts. No back-yard shortcuts.

TIMCO Kennels does not breed or sell puppies. We take the dog you already have and turn them into a finished retriever — basic obedience, through basic retriever, through advanced.

Three things we don't compromise on.

01

Consistent & Hands-On

Your dog gets consistent, hands-on training start to finish — not passed around. Consistency is how a dog learns, so the program holds the same approach from the first sit to the last blind retrieve.

02

Honest About the Dog

We give you a straight read on where your dog is and how far they can go. If a goal isn't realistic on your timeline, we'll tell you before you commit, not after.

03

Built for the Blind

This is gun-dog training, not pet obedience. The standard is a dog you can actually run — steady to shot, reliable on marks, and capable of a blind retrieve.

Based in Thibodaux. Dogs come in from across Louisiana.
