Our Spaniel Journal
​Any reasonable person can train a gundog. However, it takes a truly talented and skilled person to develop a flushing dog and maintain a relationship with their gundog. This relationship is developed through trust and your gundogs trust is not something you should take for granted. Our relationship with our gundogs is developed over time through a combination of exposure to game birds, properly teaching an expectation, repeating the lessons and maintaining a high standard.
