Pointer Training

Intro to birds, retrieving, gunshot, and water. Light obedience, and socialization.

 Birds:  The pup will be worked on birds, to ensure that he/she is birdy and bring out the prey (bird) drive in the pup.

Gun shot:   The pup will be conditioned to the noise of the gun, starting from a training pistol and working up to various gauges of shotguns.

 Obedience:  We will start them on knowing voice, whistle commands on Here, Whoa, Kennel,  along with the other commands needed in the field.  Includes handling in the field.  

Hunt & find game:  The starter gun-dog he/she will be quartering (turning) the ground looking and finding game.  

Point & hold game:    Along with this the gun-dog will be pointing & holding the birds.  

Retrieve to hand:  He/she will be started on picking up your shot birds and bring back to hand.  We try to get the gun-dogs to naturally retrieve.
 

 We will work with the owner to bring his/her gun-dog to the dogs full potential.
