Fantastic end to the season for Faith, exceed my expectations this season given the little time I have had to work with her and I couldn’t be prouder of her. She worked really well, listening under really busy circumstances and at a distance without a problem. She been a happy, sociable girl whos enjoyed every […]
Had a fantastic training day with the youngest, one of the best days I’ve ever been on! Lots of really good retrieves with some heavy pheasies over jumps and in pens etc. Hunted nicely onto birds, steady to flush right under her nose and solid to shot, also got some lovely feedback. Really pleased with […]
Had a lovely evening out with Faith practicing on cold game. Hunted it down well, retrieved well but has started releasing it early, after all this time! Time to work on holds.
Having had a whole year out of the field to concentrate on competitive obedience, to say I was nervous about our first time out working on our local shoot this season would be an understatement. Faith did so well last year at such a tender age that I feared we could only look bad this year. Thank […]
Rhea recently completed her first shoot day on a real shoot as part of the beating team as opposed to working for a rough shooter. She was a really good girl and coped so well with the beat wagons, dogs, people, noise etc. She just took everything in her stride, really proud of our Australian […]
Was lucky enough to be invited along to join 3 setters on a field training day so jumped at the chance to take Faith along. Was a lovely day in good company despite the horrendous downpours interspersed with sun and heat blazing. Faith did manage a rather long hare chase which was a shame but otherwise […]
After our KC field day and rabbit chase I was lucky enough for someone to mention this day to me. Unfortunately Faith managed to miss seeing every hare that went up during the course of our day (and there were lots!) but it was good to give her a chance to work on such lovely […]
The last time I was lucky enough to attend this event was way back in 2009 with Kodi, it was a great day and one that had a major role in my wanting to learn field work with him. So this time it was his daughters turn. For our trainers we had Maureen Nixon and […]
We have had such a fantastic time this season! I have spent the last few years searching for a local place beating and have been blessed to find one this year. A welcoming, fun and kind bunch they have supported my bringing my youngster along and have been so helpful in giving her positive experiences […]
Delighted to hear today that Debbie attended her first ever shotover with Dottie (Astraios Power of Veratu) and towards the end of the day Dottie went on scent and with the trainers guidance Debbie was able to work with her to enable her to have her first flush followed by shot and retrieve! Icing on […]
