Tall Timber Retrievers in

Austin, Arkansas

Tall Timber Retrievers was established in 2017 when our owner/head trainer, William Niles, decided to turn his passion into a career. Growing up in Arkansas, William had a front row seat to some of the best duck hunting the US has to offer. He grew up watching dogs out work their owners in picking up hundreds of ducks. His love for training dogs started when he watched and helped his uncle train dogs. What started as him throwing birds for his uncle, has since turned into a career. William’s favorite part about training is watching all the hard work pay off. “Watching the light bulb go off in young dogs as they start to master concepts has and will continue to be my favorite part of the job.” What sets William apart from other trainers is that he truly loves what he does and treats/loves each and every dog like they are his own.

Our goal at Tall Timber Retrievers is to properly train your dog to perform the tasks you want from them. We live by the saying “The dog that performs for you!” Whether you have desires for your dog to be a duck retrieving monster or if you just want your dog to be obedient, TTR has years of experience in training dogs to compete at high levels of competitions. At TTR we strive to have communication with our clients at every step of the training process. We want our clients to learn and understand how to get the most from their dogs. Which means we encourage our clients to come out to learn and work with their dogs. This communication with our clients sets us apart from other trainers. Come join the TTR team and let’s get started making the dog that performs for you!
