Bird Dog Introduction

Do you have a young bird dog and are interested in starting specialized bird dog training? Our bird dog introduction training includes:


  • early environment socialization
  • introduction to water (weather permitting)
  • introduction to gunshot
  • introduction to birds
  • introduction to tracking
  • building drive/ excitement
  • pointing


Based on how your puppy responds to this program, they can then continue with further basic and advanced bird dog training.

Training Programs

Scheduling an initial telephone consult is a great first step that allows us to learn about you, your dog, and your training goals. You can then hear our initial recommendations, learn more about our training services, more about our processes, and ask any questions you may have. You can then determine if scheduling a face to face assessment of your dog, scheduling a one on one training session, or scheduling training with boarding is right for you.

Initial assessment and subsequent 1:1 training sessions

After completing the initial telephone consult, you may be ready for your dog to be assessed in person. During this appointment, we will assess your dogs current level of obedience and natural or previously trained bird dog skills/ abilities. Based on your dogs status and the goals outlined during our telephone conversation, we will then create a training plan to guide you in reaching your goals. During the 1:1 sessions, you will complete hands on learning and work through various steps to meet the goals that you and Steven outlined in your individualized training plan. Those eager to learn with their dog and complete their assigned homework outside of the scheduled sessions would be well-suited for our one on one training sessions. 

Our training and boarding program

After our initial phone conversation, you may decide the board and train program may be the best option for you. The boarding and training program works well for those individuals needing short-term boarding services and decide to opt in for a training "tune up." It also works well for those individuals looking to place their dog in a structured environment long term to receive consistent and intensified daily training to reach specific goals on their training plan.
