Our Training Services
Obedience
Can't control your dog, is walking them on a leash a pain, or does your dog just need to listen better? Our Obedience program will teach your dog to walk on & off leash properly, sit until told otherwise, to reliably return when called, and to stay in a designated place until released.
Basic Gun Dog Training
The Basic Gun Dog program teaches a dog the skills to be a helpful hunting companion. This program consist of basic obedience, introduction to e-collar, force fetch, and steadying to shot. A dog that has completed this program will retrieve a bird that it saw fall, wait for you to send it, and deliver the bird to hand.
Advanced Gun Dog Training
Did the bird fall, and your dog didn't see it? In the Advanced Gun Dog program, we branch off of the basic gun dog program, and teach them to run blind retrieves, which means you the handler can guide them to where the bird fell.
Competition Training
Want to take your dogs talent to the next level? We also compete in AKC Hunt Test, we have titled dogs in all levels, Junior, Senior, and Master.
"It's not just the dog, it's a team sport. The handler's got to do their part just as much as the dog."
