Multi training day Harewood House 14th Feb
Well we started the 2015 with a massive Multi trainer day and what a day we had. We had 4 trainers there all training different tasks for the dogs and handlers. What a wondefull setting to train at. Tim Rothwell the Game Keeper has supported us every year and we really appreciate his help in ensuring we have a great safe place to train. To see more of the event click HERE

The Dummy Launcher Workshop: This Is Where It Gets Serious
There's a moment at the shooting field - or the working test, or even just a training session with other handlers watching - where you realise the retrieve isn't the problem.

The one you've asked to sit three times and it's sat twice and the third time you just gave up because everyone's watching. You know the one. It might be yours. That's not a retrieve...
We are getting bigger and better
We have so much new stuff coming up with Kirkbourne. New training sessions. Watch out for new venues too for training. SPANIELS be ready w ehave some new stuff for you too.

We have to take small steps to ensure each task we show our dog is understood and sinks in. I myself are offering one to ones in thirsk and I may be tempted to Doncaster now...
