* Our basic “Started Program” is designed to establish sound general obedience, a good work attitude, and give confidence to your young pointing dog. This
program will consist of starting your youngster with a tremendous
amount of bird exposure to solidify their natural point. They’ll gain a
lot of experience working released birds and we’ll begin developing
their upland hunting skills.
* We’ll concentrate on only shooting pointed birds
and training them to come every time they are called, regardless of
what’s happening. Whether it’s other hunters, dogs, missed birds or
wild flushes, they’ll be trained to respond correctly. Verbal and
whistle commands will be taught and then reinforced with proper collar
conditioning. This allows us to establish a quick command response even
at a distance. We’ll also give them a chance to do some serious
learning about being out in the field with other dogs and maintaining
proper hunting techniques.
* The Started class last 8-10 weeks. This class includes all bird costs, supplies and equipment used during the course...everything your dog will need to achieve success. The price is $1600.
