The Spaniel Struggle Is Real ~ Real Gun Dog Training
Spaniels — whether it’s a Springer, a Cocker, or a Boykin — are bred for one thing: bird drive. It’s in their DNA to move fast, hunt hard, and cover ground with heart. That’s exactly what makes them special in the upland field… and a little chaotic in your living room.
But without structure, obedience , and purposeful training, all that raw potential turns into frustration for both of you.
You don’t want a house tornado.
You want an obedient, responsive gun dog who listens, works with you, and thrives in the field.
What Happens Next?
When you send your dog to our Gun Dog Training Camp, they receive:
• ✅ Daily training reps with real birds
• ✅ Exposure to wild bird country in the fall
• ✅ Gunfire intro
• ✅ Foundation obedience that sticks
• ✅ E-collar conditioning (the right way)
• ✅ Steadiness, retrieving, honoring, and more
