Currently Big Cottonwood does not own any stud dogs. That being said, I train often with Chris Jobman at Flatlander Kennels who has several dogs at the top of the sport. In addition any given weekend I'm at a Hunt Test I guarantee I'm keeping an eye out for potential Suiters for our girls. Quite often I am approached with offers to breed to Competitors and Friends with some nice dogs.
We have high standards for the sires of our litters. Among other requirements titles are a big factor. Generally we breed to Grand Champion/ Master Hunters.
Occasionally we offer very high end litters. IE 2011 NAFC FC AFC Cody Cut A Lean Grade "Grady" and HR Birdwoods Ruff Rivers Shadow MH "Fay"

Tiger Mountains Roughrider MH "Delta"
The most common desirable traits you should look for in a puppy. Good looks, birdy, trainable, biddable, high drive, calm and quiet in the house, good with kids, clean in the kennel, good cold-water attitude, good demeanor and gets along with other dogs. In the 20 years Ryan Fortier has been training and breeding dogs, Delta is the one and only dog that met everyone's criteria. He has been a very productive Stud dog and has proven to produce a lot of puppies just like him. "Dogs like Delta don't come around every day" ……Ryan Fortier
On top of being a great hunting companion Delta was also an incredible Hunt Test competitor. On his path to the Master Nationals in Maryland 2011 he went 6 for 6. Failing only a Senior Test early in his career.

Ornery Cuss.
Our first litter was whelped 2/28/14, the litter that started it all for us, from HRCH Whiskey Raider's Sugar & Cuss who was a family member and we knew from the time we brought Sugar home that we wanted our 1st litter to be from this breeding! Cuss was about as big as Labs get and very powerful. That's why we kept their first born (Sochi) She's a spitting image of Cuss, other than color which is more like Sug. Cuss never ran hunt tests but retrieved hundreds if not thousands of birds during his hunting career.
