This full week of training will focus on all the beginner gundog skills and will help you to further progress with your puppy, young dog or an older dog that is new to gundog work.
Our Beginner Gundog Camp, led by Lynsey, is suitable for...
- All breeds of gundog, including retrievers, spaniels and HPRs
- Young dogs just starting on their gundog journey
- Older dogs with no experience of gundog work
- Handlers with no experience who wish to learn about how to train their gundog
- Pet gundogs whose handlers feel they would benefit from gundog work and also who wish to be able to take their dogs out safely in the countryside.
Our Beginner Gundog Camp will cover topics including:
- Learning how to hunt
- Teaching the retrieve
- Learning to manage arousal and impulse control
- Exposure to and/or managing arousal with shot
- Loose lead walking and heelwork
- Recall training
- Going for a Bumble in the countryside
- There will be opportunities during the week to focus on swimming and retrieving from water,
- You will also learn all about reinforcement strategies, play, how to teach and use targets.
The exercises will be set to meet the needs of the participants on the day. It will be a fun task-based programme of learning for you with your dog.
*On Thursday evening, there will be a group supper at a local pub. This is scheduled for 4.30 pm so we can leave straight from the training venue. This is a dog-friendly pub, and your dogs are welcome to sit with us in the restaurant area, or, if the weather permits, in the garden while we eat.
