Gage and I had the pleasure to participate in a training day with a few others. It was very enlightening to see what trained dogs could do. I was like a sponge soaking up all I could. The first lesson was that I needed to make longer cast with Gage.I had the chance to see dogs working retriever field trial drills and hunter drills.
I have now added a second person for Gage's retrieving drills. Needing to get longer retrieves my son has volunteered to help out. It was funny to see Gage the first few cast. When he got to the area that I could throw myself he started hunting. He worked his way our after a time and did bring the bumper back. The second day we went out he had figured he needed to mark better and went straight to the bumper on all the cast.
