🐕🐕Guard Dog to Gundog 🐕🐕

Video 2

A bit of a long one 🙄😂

Working Stuka through a controlled hunting exercise today. Unlike spaniels and similar breeds, he’s not genetically inclined to indiscriminate cover crashing, so his hunting is very scent-led and selective. The focus here is encouraging forward movement and flush behaviour when there’s a clear scent picture, rather than expecting automatic quartering.

Lots to still work on over the next few months, and we're not just showing the good bits 😬🐕😊

A renewed attempt to restrict e-collar use in England is quietly underway again, this time folded into wider legislation. This will not stop at e-collars. If you care about evidence-based dog training, welfare, and owner choice, now is the time to stay informed.

You should be able to stop & drop in an instant, this can get you out of an unwanted situation , put your dog into a static holding position, prevent danger where a recall isnt suitable , and is just an all round handy thing for your dog to know!

🐕Guard dog to Gundog!🐕

This is the start of a long-term video series documenting something you don’t see very often.

This is about Stuka, Lee's youngest Rottweiler, and the plan is to follow his journey into functional gundog work.🐕🤞🐕

Rottweilers obviously aren’t a breed people normally associate with that kind of work, but in training he’s shown a really decent level of drive, and a desire to get stuck in.
Because of that, its worth actually trying to document the process properly rather than just talking about it after the fact.🐕😀🐕

The aim is to take him all the way from his already established early foundations through to getting him out on shoots and seeing how he copes with real-world gundog work.🐕🐕

That means showing what it really looks like, not just the bits that go well. There’ll be times where things click, times where they don’t, and plenty of time spent adjusting things and figuring it out as we go.😀

There’s already some nice footage filmed, and this will be an ongoing series following his progress. What transfers across nicely, what needs more work, and where his breed traits help, or get in the way will all come out over time.🐕🐕

If you’re interested in dogs, training, working ability, or you just fancy following something a bit different done honestly, this one should be worth watching.

Guard Dog to Gun Dog.
Follow our journey 🐕😀

Well........saves me writing it doesn't it, all credit to the OP. In the words of Big Jon........Bosssssshhhhh💪🏼🐕

To the certificate flashers, the weekend‑course warriors, and the dog walkers who woke up one morning and decided they’re “behaviour experts”:

You’re not impressive.
You’re not qualified.
You’re not skilled.
You’re a problem in the industry.
You are way out of your depth, and it shows.

You parade around with your bargain‑bin certificate like it’s some elite licence, when everyone with actual experience knows it’s nothing more than a participation trophy you printed at home.
A cheap certificate doesn’t prepare you for reactivity, aggression, or real in-depth behavioural work.

And the dog walkers?
You walk a few pets, throw a ball, hand out treats and suddenly you’re giving BEHAVIOUR advice?!

While you’re playing expert, dogs are regressing and owners are losing hope.
The dogs are the ones who suffer for your ego & its just plain dangerous!

Behavioural work takes skill, timing, experience, and actual competence, not certificates and confidence you haven’t earned.

If you cannot safely handle real dogs, real behaviour, real risk, and real consequences:
Stop pretending you’re a trainer.
Stop taking cases you have no idea how to handle.
Stop putting dogs and owners in danger.
Because your fake confidence isn’t impressive.
It’s reckless.

🎄Annual Christmas Neutrality trip 🎄

Big thanks to Trainer Emily for arranging and taking her annual Christmas trip with some of the advanced neutrality dogs & clients 😀🐕🎄🐕

11/12/2025

Working line GSD Roccos owners want him set up on the right path from the offset, so Trainer Matt visited him and his owners to get things set up right at home and prepare him for all the fantastic training hes going to have with us as he gets older 🐕😀😍

Gentle Giant and all round nice guy Lupo, and his owners have been working with Lee- he has issues with prey chasing and becomes overstimulated around other dogs which then leads to reactivity.

We're where we need to be now to go forward with neutrality classes , and start pushing situations were other dogs are present 😀

Re his prey chasing, his ecollar course is now complete, and he absolutely smashed that as well 🐕😀
