We have been training for the public since 2000 and
have a 30 dog covered facility for training dogs as
well as our own. I believe that dogs can be trained
properly without resorting to whipping, beating, or
other unpleasant experiences.For the last several
years I have been  incorporating the West method
which is a silent method and have been very
pleased with results.
Repetition and patience will generally get the results
that all of us want in a bird dog. I call my method of
teaching retrieving a trained retrieve rather than
force retrieving because every dog behaves and
responds differently. Some require much more force
than others. One thing that I have come to realize is
that every dog is an individual and one training
program does not fit every dog. I try to keep current
on different training methods and aids that are
available, and when I find one that works for me I am
not opposed to using it. Most well bred bird dogs can
be trained to point, back, and (if natural retrievers)
retrieve in 90 days. The trained retrieve generally
takes 4-8 weeks. I use both quail and pigeons in my
training programs.
Training- $400/month + quail costs
