Following on from a successful 2011, we will be offering a similar training programme for 2012 at 2 different locations.The trainers will assess the dogs and handlers and advise what "homework" is required before the next training session. We hope this will progress training more than in the past and together with with more frequent training, should improve the effectiveness of the sessions. May we remind handlers that training is not just about retrieving dummies. A huge amount can be learned by observing other handlers and dogs and by listening to what the trainer is telling the handler under his direction.
