Found It, Fetched It - Your Weekly Dose of Gundog Wisdom from the LWDG

171. What Gun Dog Training Really Teaches Your Dog


Listen Later

Gun dog training isn’t just about picking up game or looking sharp in the field—it’s about building a calm, confident, focused dog who thrives in everyday life.

In this episode, Jo and Claire get real about what gun dog training actually teaches your dog (and you!). From impulse control to emotional resilience, from sitting steady while crisps are rustled to switching off in the chaos of a busy home, they explore how these skills shape a well-rounded, happy dog—whether they’re headed to a shoot or snoozing on your sofa.

Expect honest chat, personal stories, a few laughs, and practical insights for every stage of your training journey—no matter your end goal.
