I met Mike about a year ago at a NSTRA trial in Kansas, It was easy to see why everyone spoke so highly of him, he is honest
hardworking and true to his word, shortly after this meeting Mike contacted me about a dog that he had bred and trained that a
gentelman was selling, this was the first trained dog I have ever bought. Mike told me that the dog was a great dog so I took a
chance and bought the dog sight unseen, Mike picked up the dog for me and worked him before a tial when we agreed I would
pick him up, the dog was everything Mike said and more, this is just an example of the kind of guy Mike is, I hunted with Mike this
fall in Nebraska and as always was impressed with his dogs and their training. Mike is an excellent trainer and Handler and one of
those people that I am proud to call my friend, Please consider Him for all of your training needs as well as a top notch dog.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Mike since I started competing in NSTRA back in 1999. His hard work and dedication over the
last 10 years have helped make the Rocky Mountain region of NSTRA one of the strongest in the nation. He carries that same
enthusiasm, dedication and thoughtfullness into his breeding and training programs. His soft hand and gentle nature has produced
some of the most competative dogs in NSTRA. Not to mention correcting several issues in two of my pointers that I sent to him. I
have also judged and hunted behind many outstanding dogs that have come out of his breeding programs and they are truely
some of the finest dogs money can buy. You can't go wrong with a GSP or Setter out of LockNLoad Kennels!

I want to express my gratitude toward Mike Weis and Lock n Load Kennels. He is an ethical breeder of GSP and an excellent
trainer of numerous different pointing breeds. I believe the reason he puts 100% into this is his passion and love for the dog. He
has helped Me as well as many others become better dog handlers. I've got a nine month old pup, Blaze out of his 4X champion,
Cash and I have high expectations for this pup, he has an excellent nose and style. I know Mike will help me get him there. I've
not only found a good trainer and excellent breeder but also a life long friend. Thank you Mike!

Mike has been working with one of our dogs and getting her ready to trial this spring in Colorado. He is a concientious trainer who
pays attention to the details. Mike listens to a dogs owner and builds on what he hears. Overall, we would recommend Mike to
anyone.

I have purchased two pups from Mike in the past 8 years. Mike helped me get started with my first GSP hunting dog in training &
handling, giving me the ability to train my second dog. Mike has always been very supportive when I needed help correcting my
dog or with my handling.

I have worked with Mike, and NSTRA trialed against him in locally and Nationally. Mike is a good trainer and a great competitor.
Mike and I bought this dog and his littermate at the same time. I have observed this dog before and during training, and had the
pleasure of hunting with Mike and these two littermates this fall in Nebraska. The dog does what Mike states it will do. I own the
littermate.

I just wanted to express my deepest appreciation for not only the quality customer service Mike provided but his sincere kindness
in helping me with my GSP "Ranger". I recently have experienced some unfovorable challenges in my life and could no longer
provide Ranger the quality of life he deserves as an excellent gun dog. Mike came to the rescue and found a friend who saved him
through adoption at the Denver Dumb Friends Lge. Ranger is on his way to flush birds in Idaho! God bless you guys and thanks for
everything!

I have used LockNLoad Kennel off & on for the past three years. Mike has been excellent with both of my German Shorthairs as
well as me who really needed the training. Mike has force broke my 4 year old to retrieve and this was done very professionally
and TJ is doing fantastic. My year & half old pup was whoe broke and has been hunting this winter doing fantastic for a pup. All
because of Mike.

I have had golden retrievers for several years. I decided I wanted a pointing dog. Mike helped me train a rescued pointer pup with
good blood lines. Mike has a great ability to read dogs. I have hunted with Mike and his dogs for many years. His dog work is very
polished. And he has made me be a better dog handler with my retrievers and my pointer.

Mike breeds excellent German Shorthaired Pointers, his knowledge about the dogs and their training is second to none. He literally
eats, breaths and sleeps pointing dogs, which in my mind absolutely shows through 100% with the quality of dog & service you
get with him.

stands behind the ability to be a bird dog.
