farlap 19 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 we have an HPR pup due soon and initialy it was purely for me to train as an austringers bird....something we have done in the past no probs...however my OH has now said hed like to also train it as a rough shooting gundog to replace elderly and soon to be retired lab.....and hey, maybe even to accompany him as a stalking dog!!! So what do you think would be the best order of play seeing all 3 disciplines have quite exacting but differing requirements.......gundog-austringers dog-stalkers dog in that order?? Anyone even tried such a amammoth task? Quote Link to post

Anyone even tried such a amammoth task? Hi personally .I start with one thing at a time. starting with your normal basic training then build it up slowly. Find out which thing can do best instead of pushing it onto everything at once. I rather have a dog good at one thing than reasonable at alot of things. Thats me though Regards pam Quote Link to post
