Meetings & Training Days
Interested in having a finished dog?
So are we. Our training days are
designed to prepare dogs and handlers
for NAVHDA testing and great
hunting experiences.
While we call it our meeting day, the
emphasis is on TRAINING. Hands on
training for the inexperienced to the
experienced handler. We learn from
and support each other. At our
meetings we spend time on club
business and socializing, but we are
most interested in the TRAINING
aspect.
- Obedience work
- Healing drills
- Socializing with other dogs
- Pointing drills
- Table work
- Water work
- Tracking
- Steadiness training
- Retrieve training
- Natural Ability mock tests
- and much more...
