Dropped my pup off at the trainer Monday. His wife has been boarding my pup since Christmas, only during the day tho basically a doggy day care. But now he stays.. Monday-Fri anyway should be for 3-4 months. Very excited, first dog for me so I'll be chattin it up on here

Post up some pics for us.

3-4 months? most trainers i have been around recommend at least 7 during the first go

7 months? My dog was 85% what he is now in 3 months of training and I'm far from expert

The trainer I'm using says 3-4 months then hunt him a season then back for another 2-4 months to finish the dog

Don't have any real good pics of him but here's a few during January

Couple more

So 7 months. One tip. You need to be trained as well. So spend as much time with your trainer as possible. If you teach your dog bad habits "by accident of course" your trainer is going to have to retrain what he already did.

Dropped off my 9 month old female at the end of January. Gonna pick her up in September for teal season. Then back for a month before big duck. She has good potential and I don't mind making the investment.

So far so good with the training, he's in his 4th week now. Obedience is getting solid, sit on place command, hold command and trainer is going to start force fetch

That first month is the hardest, especially if you have kids attached to the dog and a wife that thinks she is the pups momma and the trainer is being "mean" to him. I'm two months in with my pup and my whole family still thinks I'm a d*** for sending him to "doggy prison boot camp from hell".. And it didn't get better last weekend when I took them to visit and he had blown out his pads jumping around in the kennel..
