Client updates

Hello everyone. I want to start by apologizing to anyone I have not responded to.
My family and I have decided to finally make the move to southern Az. Sierra Vista/Hereford. There have been some unforeseen setbacks that had to be worked out, along with not realizing how hard it was to set up another dog training facility.
Here I will be able to better serve my clients and future clients. I have moved right in the middle of quail country. Here we have three species of quail: Mearns, Gambels and Scale. I want to put an emphasis on training and teaching for wild bird hunting, as I am a strong believer that wild birds are extremely vital to a bird dogs development .
Nothing changes as far as hunt tests or personal and group training. I will also be able to stay here for summer camp as the higher elevation provides a much cooler summer.
This summer Guy Jr. and I had an absolute amazing summer camp. Anyone who sent a dog with us can attest to that. The scenery alone makes the experience refreshing and peaceful. Again thank you for being patient. I am now ready to take dogs again.

Huxley learning to stay steady and mark his birds for a retrieve.

Little inside to a training session humor…What do we call it now? Force Fetch? Force Break? Trained Retrieve? Call it what you want. Jack’s happy with all the names we put to it.
Even a little Force don’t p**s on the tire😂. In the end I want the dogs to hold the bird until I ask for it and have fun doing it.

Otto the Lab/GSP.
I let Otto develop himself. I took what he wanted to do and trained to his strengths. Very fun dog to train and a break from the pointing dog. He also nails wild birds!!! His Methodical approach is perfect for wild birds that stay put.

Hopefully this clears up any questions as to why I force dogs to make mistakes. Here Luna makes her own decision to hold her birds, wait for the gun, and let me descend down a steep slope. You can clearly see her make decisions to move and stop herself without me making them for her.

I never want to restrain a dog from moving forward. It’s natural for us as handlers to try and restrain the dog from moving forward because we don’t want that behavior. We need to let the bird restrain the dog’s forward movements.

“Best lesson this dog could ever learn” letting the dog make mistakes. Encouraging the dog to make mistakes until it’s there idea to pick the correct behavior. Training situations can be challenging. We always want the classic perfect situation. The bird landed in a tree who cares???Perfect situation to teach the dog. Robert Poor Arizona German Shorthaired Pointers

Fixing gun shyness can be a difficult task. Counter conditioning a fear response takes time. We typically let dogs chase and shot behind them. Here I’m just simply holding the dog back to create the desire to go forward, and shooting in front of the dog. Now the dog is clearly involved with his motivation, which is in his case the bird. #behavioralbirddogs #molliconekennels

Mel would chew birds, not pick them up, and drop on the way back. Many behavioral techniques used here. Operant conditioning, capturing conditioning, and marking behaviors. The most important technique is “ Dog in motion.” Also a lot of “Don’t ever do’s” example: Don’t ever let your dog chew birds. Sometimes you allow an animal to do an unwanted behavior in order to get the wanted behavior. 🤔

Remote online dog training lessons coming soon for 2024. Train your bird dog on your own using in-depth online video courses.Learn the “why” a bird dog displays the behaviors they do in order to use the correct techniques for your individual dog.“I made all the mistakes so you don’t have too.”
