Pleas indicate how much you would consider the maximum you would wish to pay.
This is for a day with multiple participants and one or more trainers. Not what you would pay for a one to one session. _________________ Guy, Ellie, Topaz, Catja and in memory Barley

I have voted for £25 as that is a fairly standard cost. That also seems to be in line with an hour's one to one training - that's slightly more I believe _________________ Annie

Well - I am used to spending more for all my lads for the right trainer (not always gundog) if the training was stand alone as opposed to a course.
Where I took Brice and Chase at the weekend was £30 for the two lads for 2 hours - then factor in my travel to Surrey, lunch on the hoof etc etc, I consider that cheap.
Like all things we pay what we can if we see value - I like to be taught to teach as opposed to just being taught as I find it challenges me more.
I know I am in the happy position of having a pretty well paid job that means I can have a home a (hired at the mo car) and I still have money for training my guys or for showing....wish I was a double income family at times to help some of the costs but I can't complain. _________________ Sue, Chase and the non-Brittany boys - Brice & Piper.

I can't complain either but I do know what I'd do with any lottery wins! _________________ Annie

Perhaps it means only 7 people on this forum train their dogs We could try this on other forums - the working HPR one might be interesting _________________ Annie

Isn't that idea of all training, that you are taught how to handle your dog?
Or are you talking about being taught how to teach people to train their dogs? _________________ If a job's worth doing, it's worth paying somebody else to do it properly
