We take dogs in for
training from Feb 1st - Oct 31st
Our year usually ends in Oct for those interested parties, with an
arranged hunting trip to Douglas Lake Ranch in BC, where we hunt ducks,
geese and released pheasants
I prefer to start young dogs at 6 months of age however, we have had
dogs as old as the age of 2. We charge $650.00 per month Canadian, that includes bird costs as well. To get a good start on each dog we
ask that you plan on leaving your dog for no less than 3 months.
We have thousands of
acres of prime training grounds to train in beautiful Kamloops BC Your
dogs will be in the best environment imagined.
At 3 months of training, the dog will be force broke, obedience trained
to come in, heel, and deliver to hand. Each dog goes home doing
single/double retrieves (depending on each dog), responding well to the
come in and sit whistle and with a strong understanding of the command,
hold, fetch, drop and collar conditioned. Ducks, pigeons, chuckar &
pheasants are raised on our premises for training and hunting so there
is never a shortage of birds.
6 months of training the dog will have the entire above but doing double
retrieves and started on hand signals for doing blind retrieves. The dog
should be steady in the blind and be ready to retrieve once his name is
called. We work our dogs on quartering for those upland enthusiasts and
from boats in water for those of you who prefer hunting waterfowl.
We offer heated kennels that are cleaned and disinfected daily to ensure
good living conditions while in our care. All dogs must have kennel
cough, booster shots and rabies certificates before arrival.
Pick up to and from
Kamloops airport no charge, there will be a $50.00 fee for pickup and
delivery both to Vancouver International.
