Week 2 and they all came back again!! This cohort of gundog handlers have all done their homework and showed marked improvements from the first week. Their handling skills are growing and with that, their communication to their dogs. Lots more steadiness and heel work, followed by the introduction to the stop whistle. Roll on week 3.

First blind retrieve for this young chap but we set him up for success by using a white marker stick commandeered from (serves you right for not tidying up properly!) and a fence line.

Lights, camera, action!! So great to watch some of our dogs on the big screen, as I take time out from the hail, rain and cold, to attend the Cornish Film Festival. Behind a few minutes of shooting, there is: lots of waiting around; sound booms; lights; cameras; actors; and lots of strangers; so all the dogs cope incredibly well. Proud of them all and a big thank you to the filming crew who, followed to the letter, the safety and dog's welfare chat that always precedes any work like this. ,

What do you do when your training venue isn't long enough for a 50 kg Weimaraner retrieve? Of course, you just move to your other location!! At RY Dogs we are blessed with more than one private location This helps us in providing the facilities to ensure the training needs of all breeds are met.

Handed over decoy duties to one of the team, all part of the learning experience!!! All of us at RY Dogs are constantly updating our knowledge with various courses and workshops but there's nothing quite like the real thing to cement that theory.

Despite the recent wet weather, training still goes on at our private facility. Dogs really seem to excel in this environment and our trainers can fully concentrate on the job in hand. A bit of admin and tidying for me after a busy weekend but great to see scent work sessions taking place. We are slowly increasing the classes on offer and in the New Year we will be extending our portfolio to include puppy classes but with very small numbers.

Photo dump of Sunday's Gundog Training class. We are blessed in having a private location with wide ranging views, open fields and woodland, thereby ensuring dogs and handlers can focus on the learning, rather than having to worry about passing cars or rogue dogs. Lessons take planning, organisation and a wonderful set of handlers and their dogs. Gundog work isn't all about chasing around like headless chickens, it requires steadiness and constraint, so today's foundation setting exercises are essential for success in future sessions. Thank you to everyone who attended, it makes Sunday morning a joy.

In between sessions, so practising our voice only cues, although being a dog, she'll still be picking up every tiny nuance from my body movements, so something for me to work on.

Our gundog sessions are structured and carefully planned. With place boards, dummies, private field and woodland settings, you'll come away feeling that you have truly tapped into your gundogs genetic needs. The 8 classes that constitute the initial certificate are kept small and aided by assistants, so that everyone feels valued and is given the attention they need. Your dogs deserve it. Places are full for the most recent course but you can reserve your space for the next course by dropping me a quick message.

Just in case I wasn't aware, a reminder of the power a dog's jaws possess!!
