| Obedience Training Obedience is the seed of any great retriever. All basic obedience must perform flawlessly. This is the foundation to all of our training. Also it makes a dog much more enjoyable. Force Fetching Force Fetching is not for everyone and I recommend having someone that has force fetched multiple dogs do the training. Each dog reacts to pressure in different ways and experience is the only way to be consistent. For the past 8 years I have force fetched my personal dogs and continuously trained others. This has become a specialty of mine. In the end, you will have a retriever that retrieves to hand and a retriever you can count on every time! Introduction to Gun Fire! A common problem with new dog owners and gun dogs is, the owner thinks they have a gun dog so they take out the poor puppy and start shooting their shot guns over the puppy's heads. This is about the worst way to introduce a pup to gun fire, and a sure fire way to make a puppy gun shy. I use a system that most puppies won't even notice that you're shooting a gun. In most cases they will actually get excited when they see you bringing out the guns. Hand Signals Okay you just shot the biggest pheasant you have ever seen, but your dog didn't see it fall. How do you guide your dog to the bird? Hand signals are a ton of fun. If you have ever been around a good handling dog you know how much fun it is to watch them work. Hand signals are not just for the Field Trial people or Hunt tests people. There is nothing cooler then directing your dog to a downed bird without even leaving the blind. So whether you want to compete with your dog and or hunt with your dog, it gives you one more tool you can have in the field. "Who doesn't like more gadgets!" Boat Manners and Experience. Nothing is more dangerous then a dog that doesn't have manners on a boat! Whether you hunt alone or with others, a retriever out of control is as dangerous as a loaded gun with no safety! Also, retrieving can be difficult for dogs off of a boat. This is a must have for boat owners. When its 10 degrees out is not the time to practice this. Bring your dog to us and we will have him or her ready when the season comes around! |
