The Right Start for Success Introducing Puppies and Young Dogs to Field Work
Workshop with Anne Everett
The Right Start for Success is a workshop designed to show you the handler how to correctly start your puppy or young dog in field work. During this workshop we will be discussing building the correct relationship with your puppy, puppy/dog personality types, basic obedience and yard work, starting marking and handling skills. You will learn the correct way to introduce your puppy to gunfire, birds, holding blinds and all of the other things he/she will encounter in the field.
If you follow this program, your puppy or young dog should be retrieving 40-80 yd single marks confidently from land and water within a few months. They should be used to gun fire, duck calls, decoys, holding blinds and wingers. Fetch and hold skills will be progressing. You and your puppy will be ready to move on to the process of getting ready to run in your first WC/JH test.
This is a working clinic! Bring your dog, a lunch, a chair, a walkie-talkie, an umbrella (and shade for your dog) and raingear if needed.
