Granite Ledge Kennels

Granite Ledge Kennels is a professional hunting dog training facility located in the picturesque countryside of Milaca, MN. Our mission is to provide you with a meticulously trained hunting dog that will be a reliable companion both in the field and at home. With 180 acres of diverse training grounds that include ponds, native grasses, and trees, we offer an ideal environment where your dog can receive the best possible instruction.

Our kennels feature large, heated and cooled indoor runs, ensuring your dog's comfort during their stay. In addition, a fenced-in exercise area allows your dog the freedom to roam and play during training. Chris Wilson, the head trainer and owner of Granite Ledge Kennels, brings a lifelong passion for hunting dogs to his work. This interest was sparked by his grandfather's gift of a dog in his youth and has since blossomed into a full-time professional career as a gun dog trainer. With numerous dogs qualified through to their Master Hunter titles, Chris focuses on providing owners with a well-rounded and obedient companion for home and hunting.
