A busy and dreary day ended with an evaluation with this gorgeous pointer. And what a way to end the day! He’s got a nice foundation, high drive, and stellar point. His owner/handler just needs a little guidance to help get this guy’s natural abilities harnessed…he’s like clay waiting to be sculpted. Looking forward to working with them both!

No matter how old they get, or how long it’s been since their last one, there are those dogs that never forget how to throw down a rock solid duck search.

Helping this guy through the trained retrieve process. He’s made great improvements during his stay and train and we’ve been able to successfully complete water retrieves.

It’s not easily apparent in the video, but he did sit and present the dokken :)

Happy Father’s Day to all the dog dads and dads with dogs who work tirelessly to raise the best!

It was a “frog in the water bowl” kinda day 🙄

These two have made great strides with obedience and the trained retrieve. A couple of tweaks and they’ll be on their way to greatness!

It didn’t take long for this young wirehaired vizsla to work up the gumption to swim for the first time time. I’m not sure who was more excited, the humans or the dog 🧡

For anyone who fails to appreciate the application of walking the telephone pole in our confidence course to real life hunting scenario…I give you Gus. He has mastered walking on the pole on land and has applied that skill to walking along a floating log. He found this gave him an advantage over a duck he was chasing in the water. It gave him a higher vantage point and better footing.

Out early, trying to beat the heat. This youngster performed very well this morning, despite a few hiccups on the first bird. But she pulled herself together and made improvements through the rest of her run. Then, from the field to the shade to work on patience, self control, and polishing the retrieve.
