Gun Dog Training in Hugo MN

We are a professional gun dog training facility located in Hugo, Minnesota. Our primary focus is on English Cocker and English Springer Spaniels and British Labradors, but we will train all flushing breeds and some pointers.

 

Training Grounds

We train on our own grounds, which includes a half-acre rabbit pen, but we also have access to over 600 acres within 2 miles of the kennel grounds which we use for training daily. Our training locations provide a full range of conditions, including ponds, woods, brush, crp, canary grass, cattail sloughs, milo and corn. 

Training Requirements Flushing Dogs (Spaniels)

We request that you leave your spaniel for a minimum of 3 1/2  months for basic training.  This will include: introduction to the gun; retrieve to hand; sit on the flush; handle on blind retrieves; and, basic ground work including sit, turn, and come back on specific whistle commands.

You must provide all current vet records showing current rabies, frontline, heart guard and kennel cough prior to leaving a dog at our facility for training.

Training Requirements (Pointers)

We request that you leave your pointing dog for a minimum of 3 1/2  months for basic training. This will include: introduction to the gun; retrieve to hand; hold a point; honor a point; turn, and come back on specific whistle commands; and teaching your pointer a comfortable range to work within that is pleasant for both of you, as it is no fun to have a talented dog busting birds out of gun range due to lack of training.

You must provide all current vet records showing current rabies, frontline, heart guard and kennel cough prior to leaving a dog at our facility for training.
