Breckland Gundog Training

I am banging on a lot lately, about the s**t standard of some breeders, and the lack of any service once you have parted with your hard-earned cash. So now I will do the complete opposite.

Suzanne recently arranged for a pup for me from a contact of hers that had used a stud dog I have admired, owned by a Friend of ours, Katie at FosterWold Gundogs whom we have known for a few years now. And already have two pups (Chilli and Alf sired by her Stud Dogs)

This Puppy, Denzil, is coming from Georgie at Endeavour Canine I personally have never met Georgie, I have certainly never met Denzil, until Georgie sent me the video yesterday.

Georgie, is one of the only breeders that has made me think about what I actually wanted in a pup, then took that information and tested the male pups of her litter, to find out which one would be suitable, I have not been able (or wanted to), choose it because of its looks, uniqueness, this pup has been chosen by the breeder for me, Georgie has been with them through the whole of the last few months, and has been watching those pups since they were born, She is most knowledegable expert on those pups in the world, not me, not Suzanne or the woman down the road trying to flog a few 'sprockers', Georgie, and I have trusted her professional experience and judgement (No pressure Georgie ;-) x)

This is a proper breeder ladies and gentlemen, one that first and foremost has the best interests of the pups forefront in her mind.

Pups that have no doubt gone to people on a waiting list. Not ones that have been speculatively bred, and stuck on any of the animal selling websites there now are.

I'm off to pick Denzil up on Sunday, and meet Georgie over in Wales. Not down the road because it was cheap, was a particular shade of black and I could have it this afternoon, but because I want the right pup for the right job, at a price that reflects the hardwork the breeder has ACTUALLY put in for the last few months.

If you are able to walk out and buy a pup this afternoon, I would strongly suggest...........you don't, life has become so fast past that "Act in Haste Repent At leisure" becomes very apt when it comes to getting a pup/dog from the wrong source.

If Carslberg did breeders, then both Georgie and Katie would be the standard everyone else should aspire to.

Got a pet dog puppy coming soon ? Then you need to speak to Linda the complete pet dog trainer, very knowledgeable, very experienced, very qualified and very approachable.

Not many pet dog trainers in the area can put all 4 qualities in the same sentence.

🐾 Just brought your puppy home? Feeling a bit unsure where to start? 🐾

I work with dogs (and their humans!) across West Suffolk and Norfolk, and I understand how overwhelming those early days with a new puppy can feel.

That’s why I offer Pre-Puppy Class Home Visits – relaxed, friendly sessions in your own home to help you and your pup get off to the best start before you’re ready to join a class.

We’ll chat through things like:
✅ Toilet training
✅ Puppy biting & chewing
✅ Helping children and puppies live happily together
✅ Whether to crate or not
✅ Sleep routines
✅ Getting started with walking on the lead

It’s a chance to ask all your questions, feel more confident, and set your puppy up for success right from the beginning.

📍 I cover West Suffolk and Norfolk and East Cambridgeshire.
📸 Feel free to show off your adorable puppy photos – I never get tired of those faces!
📱 Message me on WhatsApp to book

💬 I only take on a limited number of these visits, so do book early to secure a spot.

Looking forward to meeting you and your new little whirlwind! 🐶✨

🐾📚 And don’t forget our puppy classes at Dereham Dog Academy when your puppy is ready to attend school!

Young Twix practicing her calmness indoors, all our pups are housetrained, crate trained, as well as happy in the kennels. In fact they are brought up to be happy with virtually all scenarios. Before we even teach a single command !

Only yesterday in classes we were talking about red and orange dummies.....

Was talking to a couple of people just the other day about temperament being MUCH MUCH more important than colour......

Fox red Labradors can make amazing work companions and family pets, but the way that they are being bred in some areas appears to be having a negative impact on their temperament. Focussing on color over temperament can have unexpected side effected, especially when just a small handful of stud dogs are used on a wide scale...

Some say you can't use a slip lead on a puppy, cos 'it strangles them' 🙄

Not if you have a stop strategically placed to prevent the lead from tightening up. Then it's basically the same principle of a lead and collar, but safer, because pup can't pull out of the usual ill fitting collar.
