About Us

Creekside Kennel - Mission

Established in 2024, Creekside Kennel strives to provide top quality care for your pups. Whether it’s in the field or at the kennel, we have a passion for supporting and caring for working dogs involved in man and woman’s favorite outdoor sport.

Corinna Peters - Owner

Corinna Peters is an avid outdoorswoman with a passion for working dogs and helping others. Some of you may recognize her as your hunting guide in the field or from the front desk at Kiowa Creek, or maybe you ran into her on the sporting clays course. She’s spent time and lived locally in the Bennett area for 10 years and enjoys the atmosphere and pace out here. She believes that God comes first in her life and strives to make everyone feel respected while working with her.

In addition to her love of animals, Corinna is on the board of River Deep Foundation - a program that supports Veterans and their families to reincorporate into civilian life.

When she’s not in the field or fostering GSPs, you can find her on a computer building software, out in nature reading scripture, or next to a fire pit with her three Shorthairs and a nice glass of tequila.

Corinna and Dennis Vanin of Team Gundogs are working together for the smooth transition of operations of the kennel and training program.
