NOVICE DOG PROGRAM
 

For dogs with little or no previous field experience. A four week course focusing on evaluating your dog's nose, hunting desire; pointing and retrieving instincts.

   

Introduction to the gun is also covered. By the end of the fourth week, your dog should be hunting and pointing enthusiastically, but not yet under full control.

Four additional weeks are also available devoted to basic obedience work ("heel, whoa, come, come to whistle"). Steadiness on point and range control. The end result is a manageable foot hunting dog!
