Early Start

Our "Early Start" program is for young

3-6 month old dogs. We introduce your young dog to birds, pointing,  check cords, field commands.

When it's ready, will we properly introduce your pup to gunfire. This exposure is for developing your dog's natural instincts and involves no corrections. An extremely important part of a puppy's development is to enjoy all the new hunting experiences without any pressure. At the end of your dog's introductory work when you come to pick up your dog, we will spend time working with you and your dog together. We will instruct you on what "to" work on and what "not to" work on at home to prepare your dog for the more advanced training. This introductory work is designed to educate you and your pup on how to get the most out of his or her early sessions. During this critical stage of rapid development, we lay the foundation for a great hunting dog. A poorly started pup often will be unsuccessful in their later training. The training fee is $ 200.00 for the one-month introductory course and  include birds.

  Intermediate

The " Intermediate Training " program is for young dogs starting at 7-12 months old. This is where formal training begins, and the core elements of being a bird dog are taught. Your dog will be taught to be handled in and out of the field, On/off leash and on verbal commands. It will be taught to turn on command in the direction you want it to go, to come back to you any time you call it, and point and stand birds until they run off, fly off or you shoot them. This dog will be ready to hunt on wild birds after this program but is not broke "steady to shot." We develop the dog's natural pointing instinct, the dog's patience on point, and bring out his or her natural retrieving ability in these sessions. Your dog will be trained on a check cord at first and then trained with an e-collar if needed to handle off leash when he is done. This training also includes one-on-one personal training sessions for the owner and dog when training is complete. Training fees are $ 350.00 per month (recommend 2-3 months) and includes birds    

                                                        

Personal Hunting Dog , Senior Hunter ,Master Hunter , Gundogs

A hunting companion means your dog will find birds, hold point until you arrive, stay pointing through the flush, shoot and kill, and will remain steady until you release it to retrieve. Then when the day is done, your dog will still sleep in your bed if that's your choice. This does not mean that every dog that stays with me will sleep in my bed but, be assured, they will all have plenty of social interaction with humans. In training your dog to become "steady to wing and shot," the dog will first be "whoa" broke. The dog will then be trained in the field on birds to hold through the shoot and the kill and, finally, until the retrieve command is given. This will take place in actual hunting conditions to get him or her steady to "wing and shot." When your dog's training is finished, it will handle in and out of the field, be steady to wing and shot and retrieve to hand. This training also includes personal one-on-one, step-by-step training for the owner, to teach you how to keep the dog broke and includes as many follow-up sessions as necessary. These dogs will handle kindly, point birds and hold steady to wing and shot in order to ensure your dog's safety and will look and be the quality dog you will be proud to own. These finished broke dogs  will"honor" another dog's point, and to "stop to wild flush" as additional training to produce the "complete hunting companion." Training fees are $ 450.00 per month (recommend 4 months) includes birds
