An elite upland dog is a master of wind, scent, and self-control. Our training program focuses on the technical skills required for NAVHDA Utility Prep and real-world hunting success, ensuring your dog handles wild birds with style and maturity.
Our upland curriculum includes:
Steady to Wing, Shot, and Fall: Teaching the discipline to remain stationary from the flush until the command to retrieve is given.
Productive Search: Developing a systematic, independent hunting pattern that stays within gun range while covering ground efficiently.
The Point & Manners on Game: Honing the instinct to hold a staunch, high-head point until the handler arrives, even on pressured or "runny" birds.
Backing & Honoring: Training your dog to respect another dog’s point—an essential skill for safety and etiquette when hunting in a group.
Retrieve to Hand: Ensuring a soft-mouthed, reliable delivery of game every time, regardless of the terrain or cover.
