Eddie I don't know if you go on the Working HPR Forum but there was a group set up recently in lincolnshire to do working training. I think Sue A went to their first session, which was taken by Rory. May not be on the doorstep but not a million miles away either. Alternatively, have you looked at GSP club, they seem to hold regular training sessions all round the country, set up on a regional basis. _________________ My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.
Thanks John. Rory is a bit of a distance, but it all depends on what time and day of the week it is. I'll certainly look into the GSP option too.
I've all but decided to do a Gundog club course. I know that they don't seem to have got the HPR side of things sorted and the first two grades are very basic, but that's what I need _________________ If a job's worth doing, it's worth paying somebody else to do it properly
People come from quite a way to near Eye, Suffolk to our HPR Club. From Essex, Clacton, all over. I was told that they had to try to explain to the Agility and Pet brigade that it is a Club for Gundogs. They are one of the most friendly bunch and a lot of humour is always present
Today, shooting/ training day here. Birds bought by the N&S too as well as wild game. GSP's, Wire hair, Weimaraners, Brittanys...Fantastic day with 12 pheasants, 1 partridge( the rest came flying in big coveys!), 1 pigeon. All dogs had 2 birds at least each, all retrieved and pointed and pigeon for water. Young dogs too and new people wanting to have a "go". They were not disappointed
From what I've seen of the website, I'm not surprised.
North Essex is not that far in comparison to the 2:00 - 2:30 it would take me though
If I came down for a holiday, do you think they would let me watch? _________________ If a job's worth doing, it's worth paying somebody else to do it properly
I will ask my wonderful GSP trainer ( who trials too) if he would put on a day for novice people to have a go if it was of help to anyone? Never any problems to watch Eddie The basics must have a dog under reasonable control though.
Yesterday, I am told a person came from near Bournemouth?? It is amazing the distances people will travel. For the Spring pointing test, Suzie Burton comes from right south too... to run.
