Lovely morning, easing myself back in after holiday.

Cracking puppy class, lots covered. Eye contact, recall, sit, introduction to slip lead, distraction steadiness & controlled socialisation!

There were lots of positives and an improvement from last month, plenty of homework to go away and practise.

Remember, if you can't do the basics at home in the garden without all the environmental distractions of your favourite training ground, chances are it's not going to work there for certain! ๐Ÿ˜‰

All on placeboards.

*NB* I only believe that a puppy class needs to be once a month, not once a week for 6 weeks. In my experience, a group of six pups socialising & practising around each other, being critiqued to assist moving forward at home, two or three different behaviours/exercises to avoid boredom works best.

Right FB, looking for the following for two seperate clients.......

Fully trained Springer, ideally a dog. Kc reg not essential. Docked. Preferably black & white.
To be used for picking up this season, failed trialling dog? Not a head banger, more placid and plodding?!........if there is such a thing! ๐Ÿ˜‚
Price not really an issue.

Part trained black or fox red lab bitch around 9-12 months. Beating line but also for picking up. Calm nature and to live inside.
ยฃ1500 but more for right dog.

Both 5โญ๏ธ homes waiting.

First week since February with no residential dogs in!!!!

Thought I'd have a first go this week with Racomitrium Violet. Untouched, 4.5 months, I haven't done a thing with her. So, as Springcopse Spaniels suggest, a dog should just hunt naturally, no kibble, no hidden tennis balls.............

Her first time with me clicking fingers, getting down low, using my voice & off she goes, hunting her own little pattern, using the head wind, after a few moments thrown a ball which she naturally hunts onto.

She's had a couple of spins in the woods & now retrieves off water. Short, sharp 10 minute sessions.

Can't wait to get going with her, she's going to be exceptional! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

PART 2, something different.........

Monthly clients who I've been working with since before the pups were even born!

As it was warm today, following a special request we tried introducing two 10 month old Boxer siblings to 'The Lake'..........

Not for the first time this week I got wet, a warm wet, but not like you've wet yourself or used heated seats for the first time kind of wet feeling!
Wellies donned and walked out as far as I dare, only for Pup 2 to come and investigate, jump up and on landing caught the top of the wellies filling them with water!!!!! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Pup 1(bitch) like a born natural, even retrieving dummies and tennis balls!
Pup 2 (dog) great until he realised he had to swim, then more cautious, but eventually got out further.

Really lovely afternoon, dogs and owners so happy, only have one dummy to retrieve tomorrow!

A day of two half's........

Cracking 1:2:1 today with a regular client, dealing with minor issues prior to the trialling season kicks off, and they enter their first ever trial! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿ™Œ

Concentrating on hunting close, steadiness, taking a line, trusting your dog & letting it gain confidence by working it out themselves, not over handling (& using that hunt whistle to excess, !) & quiet handling.

Using newly learnt field craft skills to allow the dog to potter on an area, as it could be a hot seat from a freshly disturbed rabbit or a partridge sitting tight and not wanting to flush, understanding the fine line of how long you let the dog potter for, all depends on types of game, cover, weather conditions etc. Nothing worse, hurrying a dog on to kick that partridge up it's arse yourself.......call your dog in please!

Then out of the woods for some water training and the introduction to water for the 4 month old pup, ๐Ÿ˜Ž

๐Ÿ’ฏ % a completely different partnership to last week, well done Andy!

Too many grass seads, too hot. Took the dogs to a quiet nature reserve, somewhere shaded with lots of warm water as its on peat ground (lowest place in the UK)

Some training in the fern which was a nice change, all doing really well, especially the youngsters who haven't seen it before.
Then some group free time & a swim, lovely bimble as it was early, until...............

One of them saw a gap in the fern, 3 followed. All ended up in the ditch, no issues it's lovely and warm, but due to the peat dogs have gone in scrambled out and eroded the bank, all 4 treading water beautifully, laying on my belly I still couldn't quiet reach them ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿคญ

On jumping in I manged to just touch the bottom and pushed them all out.........you can see what's coming can't you!!!! Yep, you're right, I couldn't get out. 15 minutes with 8 dogs lookong at me and wondering why I'm still in but they are not allowed! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thankfully, a kind passer by dragged my stinking arse out of the bog, no injury to any animals, dented pride and a few scratches! ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Summer wants her as her first truck, went into meltdown at the thought of getting rid! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Great day yesterday at the Clwyd Retriever Club Open Test. We managed a 3rd place on a quite technical course. The last retrieve being a very testing one, a 100+ yard mark into the edge of a wood (with trees behind the dummy all the time it was in the air, so some dogs would not have seen it thrown) landing out of sight, but to get there was over 3 fences on an angle, into tall cover after the 2nd fence and picking out of sight over the 3rd fence. With 3 people in white shirts standing off to the right (dummy thrower, shot firer & one of the judges). It was a really good set up retrieve and was definitely not straightforward.
A Massive thanks to everyone involved in putting the test on and giving up their time, Clwyd Retriever Club, judges, thrower and helpers, also Lee Murphy for the use of his superb ground.
Congratulations to all the other competitors in the awards.

Invited to Rickneys Training Ground today by a lovely group of lab ladies, thank you!!

Had a full day with four dogs, including a residential and made a day of it.

River really starting to get in shape now, looked really good. Did some launcher work for a change, 100 yard over a bank, track into woods.......smashed it mate! ๐Ÿ‘Š

Someone pegged a rabbit that didn't flush, delivered nicely to hand, dispatched humanely as the shock would have caused a slow demise.

Posy benefited from her first warm retrieve, followed by Violent Violet having a go and couldn't wait to get all over it, such a bold pup, 5 minutes of parading round with it and seemingly mastered the hold command without any training I got it back!

So, Racomitrium Flint and Racomitrium Bramble aka Autumn have the long journey back to France with their two new owners.

Our first dogs to be exported out of the UK! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿฅณ

Had a lovely evening out with David, Sean & Jazz last night. Talking dogs, shooting, politics & football........lucky French last night!!

Looking forward to see how these develop, one will trial, the other is a keepers dog.

Many thanks for the very nice gifts too!

Special mention to our vet Vicky at The Priory Veterinary Practice in Bourne & Stamford has been absolutely fantastic, from the docking through to jabs, rabies injection and the onerous task of the Animal Health Certificate which has replaced the Animal Passport.

Returning client who's cocker hasn't really grasped the concept of hunting.

Few tweeks with the handling, the dog has been steadied up too much in the early stages which has stifled the hunting. Much, much better after a few 10 minute sessions and wow, what a difference ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Š

Amazing what you can achieve with a willing client and a dog that just wants to please. Now the homework...........

Plus a lovely catch up with a good friend and Bracken for a chat and a puppy leg stretch โค๏ธ

Lovely to be able to accommodate so many people and breeds at our three Training grounds.

This week took a client to Stamford for some water work and retrieving exercises, using the high banks and extensive cover, both did really well.
The red launcher blanks do go 100 yards, easy to spot in water.
Excellent practise for the working test they did very well in yesterday! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Š

Really nice being able to watch a well bred and trained labrador work well!

Supply & demand, give people what they want & they shall come..................

Ran out of business cards, so redesigned & ordered a few more, as in 500 more! ๐Ÿ˜‚

So many new clients from all over coming to see why we are so popular. Four FT Secretary's in the past month, do good things & word gets about!

It's because I'm different, I'm supportive, positive & constructive with my feedback, but also realistic, you wont hear me say 'Your dogs s**t, get rid' I'll explain why we do something a certain way, not just tell you that's what we're doing today.

For 26 years professionally I've worked with people from all walks of life, ages, abilities & many different circumstances. I can talk (yes, I know I can talk) on many different levels, I'll never have you leave wondering what all that technical jargon was about.

I've had gundogs my whole life, grew up with labrador's & my first few gundogs in adult life were labrador's, so once I saw the light & crossed to the darkside I've not looked back, although a fox red lab will at some point scratch the itch I have for one!

You won't see me post on everyone's FB to help self promote my own goals or business. I'll like it, for friends or longer suffering clients I may comment, as I know you the handler, your personality & training style, I know your dog, is it soft or hard, how to bring the best out of it & you.

I trial, it's a hobby, nothing more. Yes, I like to win, but I'm also a father, husband & have two young kids who, like my equally long suffering wife mean more to me than winning at all costs to say I've won a trial or made up a FTCh & I'm a genuinely nice bloke. I'm on a Field Trial Society committee. I want to encourage newcomers, change some of the 'secret handshake' clubs stronghold on the winner being picked at breakfast.

I've rattled quiet a few cages this year, probably a few more now! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
Mainly as someone who I thought was a friend has been bad mouthing me on the circuit, lots of experienced triallers, trainers & A Panel Judges have blocked me on Facebook, to quote Jack Nicholson in the film A Few Good Men...........YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

So, for you lot..........there are two sides to every story. Just because you've had lots of winners or judged at the championship DOESN'T mean you can train people to train dogs, to a competent standard for what THEY want. I won't shout at you if it goes wrong or your dog runs in, I wont belittle you infront of a group. Not everyone wants a trialling dog, so when people come to me and say, I had to yank the lead, bite the dog, drag it by its ears it tells me more about you as a person & trainer using violence to get the dog to submit, tells me you haven't got the skillset to teach & communicate to a different species. Think of me as Elliott in the film E.T. ๐Ÿ˜‰(children Google it or as your parents!)

DON'T pick your trainer based on Field Trial results alone! ๐Ÿ˜‰

I don't have a trainer label, I will never be pigeon holed. I'm me, I like a laugh, I like to help people & like Marmite you'll either like me or not. Either way, I'll still do my best by you & your dog. I encourage you to try other trainers, I want you to see other methods, training grounds, dogs, people & experiences to make you, your dog & your partnership flourish as a result.

So, if you fancy trying a gundog trainer who's a breath of fresh air, please get in touch! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘

How many times have you heard the expression 'No idea why they did that' or 'Well they've never done that before' This isn't Voodoo or witchcraft its knowledge and skill every handler should know.
We will look at the theory behind the following:
- Scent, what is it?
- Ground or air hunting, what's the difference?
- Scent cone, what it is and how a dog will use it in different conditions.
- Scenting conditions, this cross over with the scent cone, temperature, humidity, weather, strong winds, no wind, rain, frost etc
- Wind direction, how to read it and how to best hunt depending on where its coming from.
- Getting your dog hunting, how to encourage and stimulate to get their nose down.
- Tips on how to keep the dog hunting close, put a pattern in the dog, connection with the dog whilst hunting, over handling, too much whistle, building trust etc.
You will all get chance to work your dog, practise the tips and be helped with understanding the input and putting the exercises into practice and advised on any aspects of your dog that may need to focus on.

Fantastic day yesterday, a 4-hour cold game workshop. Walked up, 3 spaniels and 3 labrador's.
A good bag of game, pheasant, partridge, pigeon, rabbit and a small hare! ๐Ÿ˜‚

All dogs & handlers worked really well, especially in the heat with limited scenting conditions, some great feedback too from some experienced lab handlers! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘

Plenty of breaks for the dogs to take on water and rest, which meant time for tea, coffee, water biscuits, and more cake!!!!

Unfortunately, one of the hen birds was a runner and all 6 dogs failed to find it, as did I!! ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Followed by three 1:2:1's with regular clients. Made use of the cold game with a young pups first taste!
