🐾 Chesapeake Retriever Weekend Recap at Cunningshot Gundogs! 🦆

What an incredible weekend we had hosting our Chesapeake Bay Retriever Training Weekend here at Cunningshot Gundogs! 💪🐕

Over two days, we worked with an amazing group of dedicated handlers and their determined, driven Chessies – focusing on obedience, marking, handling, and everything in between.
Huge thank you to everyone who joined us – both two- and four-legged! It was a real pleasure to see the Chesapeake community come together, share knowledge, and push these fantastic dogs to new levels.

Keep an eye out for more breed-specific training weekends in the future 👀🐾

Was amazing to invite employers in to college to explain the content of the new apprenticeship program, and gain an insight to their struggles, needs and expectations from students. We are still recruiting employers for the course start date in Sept and can still offer the opportunity to speak to myself and the facilitator if anyone would like to sign up to learn more. We can only nurture the next generation taking over the animal industry if employers and colleges work together.

I am truly passionate about this apprenticeship and believe it will be a useful addition to support any animal industry business and learners. Please get in touch if you would like to know more and share this opportunity to other animal industry businesses.
