And if you've never been on a shoot - or your young dog's had a summer off and you're not quite sure it's ready - there's a gap between where you are now and where you need to be. This day fills that gap. Shoot Day Foundations is a full day with Darren at The Bunker in Sprotbrough. Shoot etiquette, introduction to shot, introduction to cold game. Everything that turns a capable dog and a willing handler into something that actually works on a shoot. 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑 Shoot etiquette - how a shoot day runs, what's expected of a handler, and the unwritten rules that nobody tells you until you've already broken one. Introduction to shot - getting your dog confident and steady around the real thing. Introduction to cold game - the first time a dog meets game, it matters. We do it properly. By the end of the day, you'll know how a shoot day works, what your dog should be doing at every stage, and what to do when it doesn't.
