Welcome back to the 7th installment of the "Summer Shorts" series, which Jake correctly renamed the "Season Long" series in jest. In this episode we dive back in with our four pro trainers/methods to discuss Recall & Heel. This is an incredibly fun dive with some similarities (such as going back to foundational training to teach a new command) as well some uniqueness from each method. From method to timing and philosophical approach these 4 trainers/methods have much to offer and consider as you look at your process of development your bird dog. When should I teach recall? When should I teach here? How should I teach it? More control early on or let the pupper build an intense fire of prey drive before moving on to recall and/or heel? All of these and more questions are asked and answered as we work through and discuss the merits of each individual method! Hope you enjoy the episode and come back for more next week!
