Category: Gundog Training Day
Join us for a picking-up themed training workshop open to all breeds of dog who have some basic training in place already (sit, retrieve to hand, recall, familiar with the sound of gunshot). Training will take place outdoors in a relaxed and friendly environment with an expert trainer with access to some fantastic facilities.
The morning will be spent covering a guide to good game handling, practical warm up exercises and handling skills. Only one dog can be handled at a time for this session, though vehicles will be parked very close to the training field so an additional handler is not necessarily required.
After a short break for lunch (participant should bring a packed lunch), attendees will focus on steadiness, retrieving, sweeping up and working as a team with other people and their dogs. Handlers may run more than one dog on the afternoon session.
The workshop will be delivered by Regional Officer Fliss Winters, who has professionally trained gundogs for a number of years and has a track record in winning awards at field trials and working tests with her dogs across the South East. She and her dogs regularly pick up on a variety of shoots.
Cost £25.00 for BASC Members, £35.00 non-members.
