Dog Training

August 8, 2020 @ 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM

Please send bird orders to Kirk by Monday night prior to training day.  No order = no birds.

WHAT TO BRING FOR YOUR DOG

The following list are items you will need during training:

  • Plenty of water and a bowl.  In the summer months you will want enough water to cool your dog off after running.  Consider collecting gallon jugs or a 5 gallon water carrier used for camping.
  • Water bottle with squirt cap to carry in the field for your dog.
  • Slip lead or collar and lead.
  • Kennel /crate in vehicle or short tie out stake.
  • Other training gear you may want to use such as bumpers, tennis balls, whistle, etc. The club has some equipment available like retrieving bumpers and a zinger winger.
