In this podcast, I talk about the things you'll need to do to pass the Certified Pointing Retriever Stake of the American Pointing Labrador Association Hunt Test.  What the test requires, what you can expect, how to get ready and how to think about this like another training day..... with some rules.

In this podcast, I give you a gift box - of all the stuff you're going to need for the first half of this pup's first year of life.  Probably far simpler than you might think....

In this podcast I outline the very specific steps in the process of teaching your dog that flying birds are not what they are about. Many basic steps come before this process, so make sure you're up to speed on the basics before undertaking this process.  This allows you to have a dog that will ultimately be steady in the upland field no matter how things go, and to ensure a safer hunting environment for all concerned.

In this short podcast, we discuss the set of steps through which you can condition your upland dog to  not chase birds, and not go after birds because a gun went off or a bird too flight... Getting ready for Spring Tests

4 Questions, How do you drop your training tools; what is the role of the secondary trainer, does using the 'place'  method negatively impact training and why not let a puppy be a puppy.... Enjoy!

In this Podcast, we discuss creating the responsive kind of thinking you'll need for everything you wish to do with your dog.

In this episode, we talk about accomplishing a great deal of training, including very advanced things, by specifically teaching individual elements one by one.  Most of us have to train by ourselves much of the time, and this will help you come up with a good plan to use that to your advantage.
