Sporting Saint is a specialist UK business, manufacturing and supplying high-quality gundog training equipment to meet training needs at all levels, both locally and worldwide. Founded in 2007 by Philippa Jones, who combined her passion for gundogs, shooting, and the great outdoors with the desire to build a homegrown business, Sporting Saint began from humble roots—an industrious kitchen table in rural Herefordshire. Balancing her growing family and her love for the countryside, Philippa nurtured the business from her farm, driven by a vision to offer top-quality, British-made products.

Today, alongside a dedicated team (including a few family members and her supportive husband Kevin), Philippa’s business supplies gundog trainers, clubs, individuals, rough shooters, wildfowlers, commercial shooting estates, and country pursuit outlets across the globe. Most of the product range is made in the UK, allowing Philippa to maintain strict quality control, ensuring each item is competitively priced and market-relevant.

Over the years, the product line has grown significantly, with new designs and innovations constantly expanding the range. Despite this growth, Philippa remains committed to the founding principles of her business: delivering exceptional customer service to every client, from small personal orders to large wholesale requests. Sporting Saint is proud to cater to all gundog training needs while staying true to the roots that first inspired its creation.
