I have been involved with hunting dogs, livestock, and hunting dog breeding since childhood. I grew up on a dairy farm in Northeast Iowa and aside from raising, breeding, and milking cattle, we also raised and bred Britney Spaniels (a breed of bird dog). Raising dogs and cattle have given me an excellent background to manage Hunters Point Kennel.
In my professional life, I have both a Bachelor’s Degree and Masters Degree in Agricultural Systems Technology from Iowa State University and Purdue University Respectively. Currently, I am a lecturer in the Department of Agriculural and BioSystems Engineering ath Iowa State University. It is a joy daily to interact with both my staff and my customers, and I carry this joy with me in every aspect of my life. Danny Allen made the statement “quality invested results in quality received” that was and still is Hunters Point Kennels philosophy.

Treating people as I would expect to be treated has provided me with 24 successful years as an insurance agent. I have applied this basic concept to Hunters Point Kennel as I handle the advertising, marketing, and record keeping part of the business. The result has been hundreds of satisfied puppy buyers all across the United States. I am a life long avid hunter and fisherman. I am a member of NRA, Ducks Unlimited, Quail Unlimited, and Pheasants Forever. I am currently a member of the board of the American Pointing Labrador Association and a two-term past-president.

As a 24 year employee of Purdue University in the capacity of County Extension Educator, I have worked to help area farmers produce top quality crops and livestock. This experience has helped me in handling the breeding, health care, feeding, and daily maintenance at the kennel. I believe quality is a result of deliberate action. I am a lifelong hunting and fishing enthusiast and a member of Quail Unlimited and the American Pointing Labrador Association.

Nate Hamblin
Nate is the Senior Executive Vice President of our pro staff. Nate travels the Midwest every fall in pursuit of ducks, geese, pheasant, chucker, and quail. You never know if Nate is going to be up in Canada after giant geese, in the Dakota’s chasing pheasants & ducks, or down in Kansas locating a few coveys of Bobwhites. He also guides clients on pheasant, quail, and chucker on a local preserve. Nate has raised, trained, and hunted with various bird dogs all his life. He got into pointing labs back in 1998 when he purchased his dog "Hunter" from Danny Allen and Hunters Point Kennel. From that October day at a hunt test in Michigan when he picked up Hunter he has been training, hunting, and running hunt test in various AKC and APLA events. Nate handles some of our guiding requirements, conducts our in-house training and most importantly gets out and hunts the dogs!
