Andy Attar
Andy has been training since 1985. Starting at Handjem with Mike Lardy, he developed a young dog program that is still current and relevant today. During his time with Handjem, Andy was fortunate to train and handle some great dogs; including Big River Bon Amie, Candlewoods Super Tanker, Gusto Lost Control, Candlewoods Tanks A lot, Hattie Macbunn and Honest Abe. These great dogs and countless others have helped to shape and define Andy’s career.
Forming Autumn Run in 1993, Andy has trained a national derby champion, multiple top 10 derby dogs, and nearly 50 champions, making Autumn Run one of the premier professional kennels today.
​
Over the years, Andy has lectured and conducted many workshops and seminars. Whether working with puppies or All-Age dogs, Andy aims to educate and enhance the skill sets of competitive retriever handlers.
