Requirements: Retrievers must be 4 months or older (at the first class) with current vaccinations. Classes will be divided into two groups, both covering the same material. One dog per handler.
We will be instructing the owner/handlers on the basics of starting your dog for hunting and field work. This includes basic obedience, teaching to retrieve, and preparing the dog for more advanced training. The outdoor sessions will include land and water work (if water is warm enough).
