Gun Dogs at their Finest

Training

Paul Cacciatori, Owner & Trainer, has devoted his life to molding dogs into world-class hunting companions. Starlight Kennels is Southern California’s leading Retriever & Gun Dog Training, Breeding, Boarding facility. Over the last 40 years, Paul has established himself as a leading trainer, having titled more Master American Kennel Club (AKC) Hunt Test Labradors than any other kennel in California. But it’s not this or any of the many other accomplishments that differentiate Paul from a myriad of other trainers. It’s something much more — love, knowledge, patience and an intimate understanding of the dogs he trains.
