RedRobin Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Hi mate Can recommend Paul at Merovigian Kennels http://www.merovigiangundogs.co.uk/ Yes I know hes a biased spaniel chap, but hes training and outlook on gundogs is superb. He works his dog's too Reasonable rates , be it his group sessions, or individual. Great bloke. Patient, very knowledgeable, , Understanding with Pups ...'does what it says on the tin,' kinda guy . Straight Forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodford1 Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Cheers mate I use Paul at the moment and he has really helped me so far with my lab and has helped me bring him on a long way, and yes he likes his spaniels, Just a few guys with dogs says its good to use a couple of trainers so you don't get stuck in your ways with one Trainers style not sure if this is right or wrong to be honest was just wondering if there were any other trainers around here to take a look at Cheers mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labstaff Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Theres a few in Leicestershire.....Laura Hill at Stauntonvale Gundogs, Ron and Gaynor Gent at Mistigri, Tim Brain, Linda Partridge and Derek Capel, Stuart North. If you don't mind travelling to Nottinghamshire (Near Eastwood) there is Rob Daws. They all train dogs to a very high standard and they all trial labs.

woodford1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Not sure who red robin is mate, He is doing ok, getting him out to distance now its still just the stopping thing with him!!!! But he is getting there. He about took Paul out this last Sunday whilst returning with a retrieve he ran straight through Paul. Are you shooting or just working the dog as a handler. You still working your dads dog as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
