PWD Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 There are people that can help mate... best get yourself along to a training group or a one to one trainer ....Look on the bright side for starters...she aint botherd about having feathers in her mouth . Anything can be re-trained with enough patience and dedication, at 3 she has a stack of work left in her . how is her lead work or heeling etc have you anything good to get started with ...The pheasant ripping would only be expected at this stage with no pre training so dont dwell on it ...but avoid it also .... ..What ever you try good luck with her , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bango Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Yes, is the simple answer but they will give you a good starting point. The average is anything from £20.00 to £25.00 per hour. I sent details of a gun dog club did you try there as they have training days at reasonable rates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
