Pre-Hunting Season Fine-Tuning: Fitness & Foundation
WHY are we offering this Program?
Because That First Flush / Retrieve / Point of Their Season Should Only Bring a Smile to Your Face
There is a good chance your bird dog has not hunted in a year and with a relaxed, lazy summer, may be out of shape both physically and mentally.
During our 4-Week, Pre-Hunting Season Fine-Tuning program, we will refresh his/her obedience & control afield in order to strengthen the bond between you and your dog. We will work them on Pigeons and Quail to regain the steadiness lost after a summer of fun and possibly the absence of rules. Additionally, upland hunt with Chukars on our woodland course.
We will work with him/her to get their head back in the game and will be prepared to teach, enforce and reinforce many aspects amidst all training situations; including Go, Stop & Come.
This program is a great way to get your dog’s body and mind prepared for opening day.
Our 4-Week Program INCLUDES:
- Expert & experienced training on exquisite 50 acres of private grounds
- First-class boarding in private runs with one-on-one care
