Gundog Training

You don't need to go shooting to benefit from gundog training.
Working breeds have innate instincts, with good training, can be enormously rewarding for both dog and owners.

Harnessing your dog's natural abilities

Gundog training provides structured activities that encourage dogs to focus, listen and work collaboratively with their owner.

For many working breeds, that combination of mental and physical engagement can be particularly valuable.

Rather than constantly battling against what your dog naturally wants to do, training can help you understand those instincts and channel them more constructively.

More than obedience

Gundog training can help develop:

  • Calm Focus

  • Recall

  • Steady Stays

  • Retrieves - Split and memory to hand

  • Whistle Recall & Stops at a distance

  • Heel work off & on lead

  • Self-control for prey drive and hunting

  • Confidence

The exact content of the course will depend on the dogs and their level of experience.
