Refreshments: Tea/Coffee & light lunch

Venue:
.The format for the session will be for an instructor to run through the
various elements of gundog
work and then for each handler and dog to
understand and practice these elements both
Individually and as a group.
The day is not designed to train your dog
rather to give you a basic “toolkit” and technique. The
elements we will be explaining and practicing
condense at least six months work into one session
so handlers should leave with an appreciation
of what is required of them and their dogs.
You will require a lead (preferably a rope
“slip” type), a whistle, a dummy (or a favourite
toy),
a dog and probably a sense of humour! You should
also have warm clothing in case of poor weather as
most gundog work seems to be done in the cold
or wet. We will have a supply of dummies and whistles if
you do not have these already.
We hope to make this an informative and fun
day and whether you intend to work your dog on a
shoot, enter trials or working tests or just
require a more obedient dog there will be something of
use for you on the day.
We are justly proud that the Welsh Springer
Spaniel is truly a dual-purpose breed and we hope that
by participating in this day you will be well
on the road to ensuring that we keep the working
instincts of our breed alive.
