Access to an estate like the Emblehope & Burncastle is a privilege. It’s as natural and unforgiving as a gundog trainer could wish for . Tough walking but mostly the group stayed upright . Attentive work during the day and great company at supper .
We are back there in August and send our thanks on behalf of all the group to Raymond & Ann for their support and generosity.

Gundog owners looking for residential training sometimes ask more questions booking a hotel room than they do when someone on a shoot tells them they are trainers and will take their dog in!
Here are some frequently NOT asked questions, but ones you need to know about our business.
We feed Kronch Agility and every other day feed minced chicken carcass and veg - why - it’s very good food and it works for us.
We don’t have staff it’s me & Heather. We could choose large and get staff or small and we work together. We went small . No more than 3 residents in at a time.
We use 365 dog poo removal service .
We use biodegradable poo bags
We take videos of your dogs progress and send the unlisted YouTube link to you.
We are insured with Pet business insurance.
Our kennels have insulated painted concrete floor . Insulated walls and insulated roof sheets - we hadn’t used them before but certainly worth the extra.
We have large KM boxes with stable matting and shredded paper. Your dog does not share a kennel space with others . The kennel is at the back of our house.
Your dog is too important not to check where he/she’s going .

Our website has sat there, minding its own business for far too long.
We have been told that we can’t be found easily by internet searches.
We want to be the first point of call not the last.
To fix this “find us” problem we are asking for your help. If you have been to us training, your dogs have come in for residential, we’ve fixed, looked after and improved your Gundogs. Improved your handling ability and you are happy to endorse us please leave a 5 ⭐️ rating on Google.
No longer will we “ hide our light under a bushel” 😁 or remain the best kept secret in Yorkshire ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you know that we put our heart & soul into your dogs training - others need to know too . Many Thanks

Whilst we advise friends never to get 2 pups at the same time, we constantly have a problem with listening to our own advice.
We do see that the rough and tumble of play with brother & sister make their bodies strong, agile. They also are learning both manners from the bigger chunky black one and fight tactics from the honorary sister with the floppy ears. Learning voice control like “Oi enough now” & “pack in” & “what’s in your mouth this time?” Character building !!❤️ them or us?

Many thanks to the officials & helpers of the Three Ridings Labrador Club for running the All Aged trial at Thimbleby Estate, by kind permission of Mr & Mrs Shelley.
What a lovely trophy to win!! This is a very poignant rose bowl to receive. It was originally given as a Thank you to the late Maeve Johnson by the 3 R’s for a trial she had given them . When she became very ill, she gave it back to the club to be given as an award. A collar has been added by the club for winners engraving and I am honoured that me & Moss will be the first to be added.
I have to add a quick “get well” soon to Liz Robinson - who does so much for the Club behind the scenes and this was the first trial she hasn’t been able to attend in …..forever!

Scott & Coorie - DOB 14.10.24
People may sometimes take half a day and several visits to choose a pup they pick up at 8 weeks old. These 2 are changing constantly and how different they are to 4 weeks ago . There is no science to your choice !
All credit to their breeder who threw life at them so that their adjustment here was easier. She had tyres and boxes and stuff to explore like tunnels . They now climb the compost heap, investigate the digger bucket and throw themselves in bushes 🫣 So far so good ❤️

A friend and client, is ready for another black bitch to join his team. He has had our home bred labs before but, as we haven't bred a litter for a while we started looking for a youngster to bring on for him. After much searching for the right youngster we settled on one that we were happy with & the sire and dam were right. Receiving the full pedigree we are delighted to see that not only is FtCh Greenbriar Gettysburg on the dams top line ( he was sire to our FtCh Shadowbrae Druid of Oakshot) but our own Boris there aswell.
Boris was a phenomenal game finder. When Shots knew a bird was down but not found they would regularly ask me to send Boris as they loved to watch him work. This bitch will be interesting to watch mature.😊
