Training*
Training is available to a limited number of dogs here at our facility.
John's positive training philosophy is designed to teach the dogs how
to use their natural ability in cooperation with the handler. "It
is very important to understand what the dog is thinking to know what
is motivating it!" Dogs can be trained for farm and ranch
work or for trial work in USBCHA, ASCA, AHBA, or AKC. We even offer
handling services if that is your desire.
Clinics*
John is available for weekend clinics in your area! Each participant
gets to work their dog twice each day with John expertly analyzing any
problems and giving clear concise recommendations about how to correct
the problem. He wears a live mic so that everyone in attendance can
benefit from each other. Discussion after each dog is encouraged. Call
us for details about booking a clinic in your area.
Lessons*
John gives lessons evenings and weekends by appointment. Many of our customers
have taken advantage of this inexpensive way to teach their dog and learn
how to use it better. Dogs start in a small round pen and can be worked
up to open field work if you desire. "We teach you how to teach
the dog!"
Judging*
