The person who is training my Airedale for obedience also offers scent dog training in late March and early April. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for my schedule so I'm thinking of booking private training specifically geared to hunting and shed hunting. Anyone interested in doing the same with me to get their dog up an running? Costs would be lower than private, one on one training sessions. Training will entail indicating for game birds and retrieval of same, indicating for big game while on leash, scent work and tracking, shed hunting and ensuring the dog comes back when called. This isn't competition training, its practical hunting/tracking skills. I just want my dog to be my hunting partner and not scare off game by barking, or take off after a deer/bear and never to be seen again. Late April to June works for me. Anyone interested? In Lumby and Vernon area. About 30 plus hours of course work.

PM me if you want to chat.
