Early Bird Puppy Program

Handsome Hal graduated from his puppy program! Hal’s owners have done a FANTASTIC job with him and I enjoyed seeing him grow in just a few short weeks. We can’t wait to see him back this fall for his Field and Family Program! 🤩

A baby bird dog!

I’ve really enjoyed watching little Nelli grow up these past few months, develop her bird dog skills and working with . Madison has been a huge help with my client dogs, as well! As the end of the season is rapidly approaching, we are savoring these bird dog days while they last 🥲.

This sweet boy is such a gem! So enjoyable to have around the house and he’s going to be a heck of a bird dog! I am super, super proud of his progress and can’t wait to see all the cool things he gets to do with his owners!

4 weeks with sweet baby Rush 🥹 Time sure does fly when you’re having fun and this girl is SO much fun!

In the past 4 weeks she has:

✅ met a variety of people
✅ interacted with over 20 different dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, etc
✅ visited a ton of different environments/new places
✅ spent time on and off leash
✅ been crated in different crates, multiple houses, multiple cars, multiple rooms
✅ spent time in an Xpen and being back tied
✅ worked regularly for her meals
✅ learned a basic understanding of her name, recall, sir, down, place and flipping into heel position
✅ walked politely on leash around a variety of distractions
✅ been introduced to quail, ducks, and gunfire
✅ had positive experiences with grooming (nail trims and a bath)
✅ worked on developing her natural retrieve with bumpers
✅ had ZERO ACCIDENTS (how is that possible??)

Don’t tell any of my dogs, but Rush is seriously the best puppy. She has been SUCH a joy to have around. It feels like cheating to get to have all of the fun parts of puppies without all of the hard parts (she’s extremely clean and quiet). I am very proud of this girl and am so excited for her owner to have such a solid, awesome pup!!

Sweet Scout 🥹
Scout is a genuinely good girl and I really, really enjoyed having her here. She’s a great example of a high-energy dog that has always had good intentions, just needed some direction. I am excited for her family to be able to enjoy her as much as I did!

Welcome to the pack, Rush!

Rush is a field English cocker spaniel who is here for my Early Bird Puppy Program! I said last year that I will no longer be offering this program, but made an exception for a client/friend of Grayson’s. Rush was bred by (same breeder as Althea and many others), so I knew she’d be fun!
I haven’t wanted to post and jinx it, but she’s been the absolute best puppy. She’s been with me for a full week now and hasn’t had a single accident, not in her crate or in the house. She’s quiet, confident, loves to work for food, LOVES birds and obviously couldn’t be cuter. She’s gets 10/10 stars for this past week ⭐️
Baby Rush will be with me for 1-2 months, maybe indefinitely if I accidentally change my phone number and lose her owner’s 😏. I am really looking forward to continuing to work with her and watching her grow up!

Year 3 is in the books! Looking forward to year 4! Happy birthday, Ember!

When Amy first contacted me she told me she was taking her dog, Jett, to Canada at the end of September and wanted her ready for that. We set up a plan that went like:

4 weeks with me in March for basic obedience, bird and gun introduction, and some marks
April through July: Amy started a formal retrieve program following my Patreon
4 weeks with me in August to wrap up formal retrieve and establish steadiness
Using September to put everything together

They just got back from Canada and absolutely killed it! How amazing to see Jett put in such great work! It’s been SUCH a treat to see Jett progress this year and have such an incredible experience in Canada. I have seen few people be as dedicated to their dog as Amy and I love, love, love seeing that pay off for her in Canada.

Not to mention she ran Jett in their first hunt tests last month and went 4/4 in started in earned their SHR title!

So, so proud of these two and so excited to see what comes next! Excellent work, my friend! .dunn106
