Wow - what a week ❤️❤️
2nd residential gundog training week in the wonderful Highlands.
We tested, helped and pushed handlers and dogs.
We held a mid-week working test workshop for some thought-provoking ideas.
We gave the dogs and handlers something to think about and supported them to help them achieve.
Very well done to all.
It really did feel good being back doing what I love.
Hugh thanks to my partner Jill Gardner - we make a good team.
Thank you to Gamekeepers Goods for supporting us.
Thank you to all for coming ❤️

Residential Training Holiday - Highlands
Week 1 completed of our residential holiday in Scotland, run by myself (Sarah Winter) and Jill Gardner. This is Jill and my 4th year running these training weeks in the beautiful Scottish Highlands. The dogs and handlers worked their way through lots of different scenarios utilising new areas and taking part in a working test workshop with a difference. It was a pleasure to watch all dogs and handlers take on these challenges and achieve. Well done to you all as every dog in the group completed the exercises.
A huge thank you all for coming and it was lovely to catch up with some of my old clients from the bottom of England-Shire.
Big thank you to my team and partner in crime Jill Gardner.
Thank you to Gamekeepers Goods for supporting us.
Very well done to all, such a pleasure watching you and your dogs grow in confidence.
Safe trip home everybody and look forward to catching up very soon .

On the 6th July I am taking part in the Great Glencoe Challenge. This is a 26.2 mile walk over some of the most beautiful landscape in Scotland,
I have decided that I will walk to raise funds for Canine Cancer Research after losing my beautiful Eddie who lost his fight to Lymphoma at the age of 4.5 years.
Please see my JustGiving page for more details and please do give whatever you can for this cause.

I am unbelievably proud of this young lady. Jacquie Wright
Jacquie’s determination with her little Chocolate Bronte (Kitehill Kimono) has all paid off by taking top Novice dog at the Team Event at Isenhurst at the weekend.
Jacqui has trained with me for around about seven years and become a good friend of mine.
When I moved to Scotland, I left her in the capable hands of Carly Madgwick and Chris Richardson with additional help from Sally Richardson, Louie Robertson and Beth Morgan, They have all helped Jacquie to continue to polish Bronte
Huge congratulations to Jacquie and Brontë. I am immensely proud of you 👏 👏🌟🌟

Who am I?

My name is Sarah Winter. I have been training people for about 25 years both here in the UK and abroad. During this time I have completed a number of business qualifications in learning and development which has helped me understand the different training approaches you need in order to achieve success. I started training dogs around 10 years ago and got the bug. I now own 6 dogs with Golden Retrievers being my main passion. I have attended clicker workshops, agility sessions, puppy training courses and completed my Instructing Pet Owners course at the IABTC a couple of years ago. I have also demonstrated at Crufts for the last 4 years. I have a passion to use positive reward based methods to gain the best from a dog and enjoy coaching people to embrace their dogs needs.
