🌹 Rose Update! 🌹

It's been two weeks since Rose’s ophthalmologist visit, and she's making great progress! 👀 We've reduced her eye drops from 6 times a day to 4, and we're thrilled that her eye is looking stable—no signs of it worsening! 🙌

We'll keep up this routine for another two weeks before sending an update to her specialist. Through it all, Rose has been such a trooper, handling her treatments like a pro. And when she's out in the field, she’s still crushing it, picking up and nailing runners like a youngster! 🐾💪

Here’s to our brave girl—thanks for all the well wishes and support! 💖

Today is Canine Lymphoma Awareness Day, and it hits close to our hearts. Last year, we lost our beautiful Molly to this devastating disease, and not a day goes by that we don’t miss her. Lymphoma is one of the most common cancers in dogs, but awareness can help us all catch it early, seek the best care, and support ongoing research.

If you’re a dog owner, know the signs—like swollen lymph nodes, loss of appetite, and unusual tiredness. Cherish every moment, watch for any changes, and don’t hesitate to talk to your vet if something feels off.

In memory of Molly and all the dogs we’ve loved and lost, let’s raise awareness and share the message. Hug your dogs a little tighter today. 🐾

06/11/2024

Join us on 14th December at 1 PM for a festive afternoon filled with fun, games, and a bit of holiday cheer – all designed for you and your dog!

🌟 Client Spotlight: Rob & Monty 🌟

We love sharing success stories, and Rob and Monty’s journey is one for the books! 🐾 Rob has been training with us for a few years, bringing different dogs through our programs, mastering the basics and advancing with each one. His dedication to continuously learning and applying his skills to each new four-legged partner has been truly inspiring.

With Monty, Rob started from puppy training, moving step-by-step through advanced obedience, direction work, blind retrieves, training around the shotgun, and working with cold game. The results? Outstanding! 🎯

Rob recently sent us this heartwarming message (along with a video that put big smiles on our faces):

“Hi Rob, thought I’d let you know Monty’s getting on well after being introduced to game. We’ve had a few walked up days at Ampton and been out on peg. Nice to put all the work into practice, really enjoying it. Thank you again for all the training.”

There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing our clients thrive and enjoy the fruits of their hard work. Well done, Rob and Monty – you’ve made us proud! 🐕💪

📝 Do Working Dogs Need Electrolyte Supplements? 🐕

There’s a lot of buzz about electrolyte supplements for dogs, especially in working breeds. But here’s what you need to know: dogs don’t lose electrolytes the same way humans or other animals do. Unlike us, dogs have very few sweat glands, so they don’t lose significant amounts of electrolytes through sweating.

✨ The Key Takeaway? A high-quality, balanced diet and proper hydration are essential for maintaining energy and performance in working dogs. These will provide the necessary nutrients and hydration your dog needs to perform at their best, without the need for added electrolytes.

Over-supplementation can lead to imbalances, which may do more harm than good. So, before reaching for that electrolyte solution, remember that a well-fed, hydrated dog is set up for success.

Day out shooting driven duck in Essex yesterday. Fantastic day and Iris joined me on peg. Eye wiping labradors who wouldn’t get into cover. She never disappoints, cracking dog. Sits steady and quiet during the drive and then switches on when needed to work. Two days out back to back for her this week so she’s on a rest day today .

Have you ever wondered what place boards are ? Or how they work in dog training and in particular Gundog training.

Please get in touch with us if you would like to book an introduction session into place boards and see how we use the Cato Outdoors to achieve the best results in your training.

From your basic obedience training to through to advanced skills in Gundog training.

🚫 Why We Don’t Recommend Training Vests on a Shoot 🚫

Training vests have their place… in training! But on a shoot day, it’s a different story. Here’s why:

1️⃣ It’s Not Training Time: The shooting field is no place to train your dog—training happens away from the field to ensure your dog is prepared and steady.

2️⃣ Game Care Matters: Game should never be piled into a vest while warm. Proper care ensures all game is fit for the table. Use game carriers to allow birds to air until they’re handed over for collection.

3️⃣ Better Options Available: Handheld game carriers are great for on-peg, but if you’re picking up, walking up, or rough shooting, a shoulder game carrier is your best friend. Birds are heavy, and you’ll need your hands free for your dog or gun.

Always handle your game with care—it’s not just sport, it’s food! 🦆

Our First Aid Kit At Home is the hub for our First Aid Essentials. It contains multiples of all items so that we can replace as soon as we use it from my field pack or truck kit.

We hope you have found this series useful, and we still recommend getting Canine First Aid Trained, even if you only have one working dog. 🐾

Few photos from our Gundog first aid training course. A fantastic afternoon yesterday thanks to Linkswood Veterinary Centre Especially Emma, Kieran and Natalie for organising and giving up their valuable time, to pass on some essential first knowledge. Hopefully not needing to use it.

We hope everyone who attended this course took something away from the course. As many of us including Julie and myself have done first aid training before and we always learn something new.

Our Story

At Seadogs Training we are committed to delivering professional training sessions to train both the handler and the dog, from the time you bring home your new puppy to the time you take your dog out on your first shoot day and beyond in whichever discipline you choose. We also cater for those of you who would like a better partnership but have no intention of working your dog. Having the basics will make both you and you dog happier. We have over 20 years shooting experience and work our dogs beating and picking up. Rob also rough shoots over some of our dogs and shoots formal driven days where there is often a peg dog at his side. So whatever your discipline we can train you and your dog to meet your goals.

Our training courses will give you the confidence to work your dog in the shooting field, and have an obedient pet in and around the home.

If you wish, we can move onto more advanced training including water retrieving, dropping to flush, shot and directional work at Stour Valley Gundog Training Centre
