Dog Training
Obedience Training
OVERVIEW
Someday Retrievers in Kamloops offers a unique resident training camp where we do all the obedience training for you, then teach you how to follow through to maintain it. We have huge interest in this option, as many people have very busy lifestyles. Your dog stays at our first class Dog Training Academy, where our certified dog trainers work with your dogs on a daily basis. For those out of town, we have a fully furnished suit that allows you to be on site for more hands on training. Training dogs is a real talent and takes lots of patience. The dog feels the connection with us before long when in our company. It doesn't get much better than having an obedient, well behaved dog at your side in your home. Your dog should be a real joy, not a burden. We offer "Follow Up" dog training sessions to ensure you and your dog are working together as a team, and you are able to do what we can do. Only 4 hours away from lower mainland, we train many dogs from Alberta, throughout BC and the USA. We offer pick up services to our facility within a 4 hour radius to the Vancouver area.
Gun Dog Training
OVERVIEW
Someday Retrievers in Kamloops BC is only four hours from Vancouver BC and offers resident gun dog training. To get a good start on your dog, it is recommended to start your dogs training at the age of six months. For best results, we ask that you leave your gun dog for at least 2-3 months. At two months of training, your dog will be force broke, obedience trained to come-in, heel and deliver to hand and started on double retrieves and fairly steady. Each trained dog goes home introduced to gunshots and completing single retrieves. They will respond well to the come-in whistle and with a strong understanding of the command, hold, fetch, drop and leave it. Ducks, pigeons, chuckars and pheasants are used in our gun dog training program, along with launchers. Teaching these young dogs to quarter in the field for those who hunt upland is also included if requested. At three months of gun dog training, your dog will have all of the above described training, and the dog should be well started on doing double retrieves and be introduced to the whistle sit command.
