  • Hunting Dog Confidential is one of my favorite podcasts. They dig deep into history, current trends, and the hunting dog world to share fascinating stories about the hunting dogs that we love so much. The primary focus is upland and versatile hunting dogs. I consider myself a pretty knowledge hunting dog owner, but I learn something new with every episode. I'm so glad they brought back new seasons and I look forward to new episodes whenever they come out.

  • Really enjoying the breed profiles.

    Ive really enjoyed all seasons of the podcast. Always hoped you were going to dive deep into the history of different breeds.

    With Craig’s experience and research the depth of information is fascinating.

  • A Podcast Rich In History & Purpose

    I have listened to several HDC podcasts and so far my top favourites are Origins of Teckels (one of my breeds, I even learned a few things!) Using Bird Dogs While Hawking (with fellow falconer Anthony, it was a 10/10) and Can Dog Shows Judge Hunting Dog Performance (another lifestyle I am passionate about). I hope more listeners will tune in!

    This is hands-down my favorite podcast. I started from the very beginning and have been working my way through every episode. It’s the perfect mix of educational, fun, and informative content for anyone passionate about hunting dogs. My only complaint? They need to talk more about the Vizsla! Highly recommend!

  • Amazing Podcast

    I LOVE this podcast! I’ve been listening to it nonstop since I first found it. I’m not a usual podcast listener, but this one has grabbed my attention and kept it.

    Hunting with dogs, and just hunting in general, is very interesting to me, and I’ve learned a lot just listening to a few episodes. I love how they go in depth on various different breeds, their purpose, their development, and so forth. Dogs are a huge interest of mine, so being able to learn so much in such a short time is amazing. ... more
