Gundog Training - Mastering the delivery

[@OdeeOz]

I love them Springers... Hell, I'd settle for a mixed Lab/Springer even, like I had before. Best, most kid friendly dog ever!

[@tavygunnlabradors2035]

great video, I'm training my first gundog and as a puppy I gave her a food treat to quickly that she started spitting it out so stopped food and took your technique of putting the ball back in her mouth and teaching her hold. she got it in a week and we've not looked back and she's now perfect

[@mauroacosta3293]

The truth is, dogs have their unique way to think, aaаand when you want to teach your dog advanced lessons and tricks, you ought to perceeeeive theeee secrets behind their actions Watch heeeere ==> twitter.com/7a3c8d00ad28029df/status/742623739800653824 Gundog Trаining Mastering the delivery

[@Agudmunsen]

This is great to hear because I’ve done the same, used treats too many times and now he spits it out when he’s within a metre of me! Will implement this to fix it as I’m looking to move onto dummy’s soon.

[@ReneeStevens98]

With our field springer, we trained her to "give" immediately at 6 weeks and, when that didn't work, trained her to give it up if we put our hand on the item. When she would not, we put gentle massaging pressure on the back of her jaw with "give" and then TONS of praise when she opened and released. Of course, this method makes tug-of-war games impossible without possibly compromising her training. (Great video!)

Thanks very much! A well structured and informative film. Keep up the great work Kevin...

[@Cowri]

Just what I needed to correct my Brittany and myself.Thank you!

[@RayShaw07]

Good video and excellent style. Patience and keeping calm is not that easy when frustration takes hold. Frustration tends to make things worse. These videos are really good for tips. Must see if there's one for 'stay', particularly with a group of dogs when mine is nearly always first to break! Yet on his own he's ok!!!

[@boagrious5190]

Love these videos. Any advice on when to transition from ball to dummy?

[@philstoneham2457]

Good video, looks logical and makes sense. My Lab is 3 and will find warm game but ejects the retrieve once out of thick cover. I will try your method.

[@Bigthug90]

What would you suggest for a spaniel that is reluctant to give up a retrieve. She will return to whistle and call and sit at feet but turns her head away when you go to take the retrieve and will squirm as it seems she is reluctant to give it up. Cheers Lloyd

Great Video - Hope to see more

[@medicatedflowers821]

Are you still running the kennel

[@OdeeOz]

Now they have animal scent bars, that you can rub on training chews, for the dog to get a better idea what it should be sniffing for. 3:15 mark if that dog had a long feathered tail, it'd look just like my dear Tessa!

[@t.d6379]

So your spaniel hasn't had it's tail docked?

[@OdeeOz]

@@t.d6379 Why should it be docked, other than grooming issues? Now my Aussie came with her tail docked.

[@Huntertom365]

nice video and good tips!! keep em coming!

[@earthmuffinmommy]

thanks for the video, what type of dog is Ben?

[@blackmonarch1]

Thank you very much for this brilliant video, I followed your instructions took my time and now my 19month old cocker delivers every time - Ps do you do one to one home training....?

[@yellowdogpaddler]

I have been searching for the type of training bags you are wearing with the harness to support the weight. Would you share the name and where I might purchase the likes.

[@batmanmarkbatt]

My 10 month sprocker has just started doing this. Will try this, first attempt he refused to hold the ball. Don't think he understood what I was asking him to do

[@peterjamesvarey7580]

i am planning on getting a cocker and training it to be a gundag is it better docked and dew claud

[@Huntertom365]

Would this work for an older dog that drops his head to the ground when he comes in with a dummy or bird? Or would you advise something else? he's very forward and friendly and will jump up and come in close with praise but only does this without the retrieve. He's a lab

[@pierotavanti2386]

vorrei sapere ceme si fa ha fermare lo springer dopo involo della selvaggina grazie piero

[@chick1726]

wow a nother great tip for me thankyou..

[@markherrington4584]

My 4 month old Lab retrieves like a mad man but when he gets all the way back with the decoy he breaks right in front of me and wants to play and sling the decoy around. I was told to move away from the dog but he will run right up behind me and break away again. I am now using a long lead to pull him to me when he returns and that seems to work. Any more suggestions on how to get him to come all the way back to me and deliver the decoy in my hand. I am brand new at this and loving my lab and the training, I know patience is key but I feel I am losing him with the delivery. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Enjoyed your video!

[@loganjudd3847]

Did you ever resolve this problem? Having the same problem right now.

[@markherrington4584]

@@loganjudd3847 I hooked up with a Hunt Retrieving Club through AKC and UKC. I let one of their trainers work with him for a few weeks. As soon as my dog got through the force fetch portion that resolved it. I know what to do when I get my next lab. It takes a lot of patience.

[@simkalomy6648]

You may train your dog when you take him or her out for a walk and see how your family as well as your friends impress at how great your pet is.

[@pheasantexpress]

my dog is brilliant at retrieving and delivering a dummie but when i put him on cold game he will not let me take the bird have u any tips

[@edwardcharles9764]

What a slipper! Yeah teach it to chew your shoes!

[@melblacke5726]

So I have watched it seems like 100 videos to figure out how to best train my show English Cocker to retreive to hand. She brings anything I throw back to me but if I don't take it right away, she drops it at my feet. Some of the methods seem a iittle heavy handed for my particular dog and I would rather take longer and not offend my dog. Sometimes she just runs around the house carrying whatever object that has caught her fancy in her mouth but if I stop her she will sit there with it in her mouth, quietly and not munching on it and readily give it up so I am also going to try to capture that behavior. We'll see.

[@mikeminnick30]

I would never recommend a shoe for a dog toy.

[@jimmymckelvey7566]
