WATERDOG TRAINING GROUNDS

Check out our training grounds.  We have been blessed with some incredible training properties.  Some we made ourselves, and others have been loaned to us graciously by friends and acquaintances.  You can visit our training grounds in the slideshow below.  But first, let us introduce you to our pride and joy...

OUR NEW TECHNICAL PONDS

Our new ponds (several years in the making...) feature multiple channels, swimby ponds and re-entries.  We developed them specifically to teach concepts (including yardwork) like angle entries, cheating singles, tune-up drills, channel blinds, two-down-the-shore and other things that we would repeat over the course of days or weeks with single or multiple dogs.

Now on to the rest of the show...  It may be hard to make out from the small pictures, but these photos include technical water, non-technical water, fields cut into strips, mowed fields, terrain, ditches, creeks, bowls, and many with several of these factors in concert.

The first picture is of Jerry & Jean Day's training property at Day's Farm in LaGrange, GA.  Jerry and Jean own Dogs Afield and SUPER SUE!  Sue (FC, AFC, MHR, HRCH Day's End Hillview Super Sue MH) is the only retriever to win all five major titles in retriever competition and is the reigning ESPN Great Outdoor Games Champion.

 

We would also like to thank the following families for allowing us to train on their properties: The Hoberts, The Tisingers, The Nalleys, The Shirees, The Rakestraws, The Thompsons and the Brooks'.
