Positive Progress
I hadn’t reached out in a while, just been plain busy. But I have managed to get in some training with Diesel. Here is a video of my last training session. I have him on a 35’ check cord. Where I hunt, I really want to teach him to hunt close. I have been taking it slow, trying to let his natural ability come out. He is 10mo.old. This summer I will introduce him to his ecollar and hopefully by fall we will be ready to hit the fields. Thanks for all your help.

Wireless fence and e-collar
Ok, I want to use a wireless fence for my home, so Diesel can get a little more exercise and a little freedom. Also I have an e- collar that I plan on using in the field. As I’ve stated in previous posts, I’m new at training bird dogs. I don’t want to mess up here. Please advise. Thanks.

Well, I am afraid of confusing him. My fence collar will tone first and then stimulate if needed. If I want to use an ecollar in the field while hunting not sure….., maybe I’m just over thinking it. ??
Training Collar.
Started using the Leather Training Collar this past Saturday. I can’t believe the difference! We went from pulling my arm out of socket to walking like a pro. I’m talking, from the moment I put it on my dog, there was an attitude change. I definitely recommend this valuable tool.
Online Course Question
I just started the course today and I have 3 videos that won’t play or aren’t available; “Expectations”, “Discipline” and “Fall in Love with the Process.”

Good Snowy/Icey Sunday morning, I’m Kenny from Thaxton Virginia. I’m 56 yrs old and have been hunting all my life. But,2025 was my first year of upland and first time training a bird dog. I’ve trained rabbit beagles and coon hounds but never a bird dog. With a hound, throw them in the woods every day and if it’s in them it will come out. I purchased a Brittany from Remchester Brittany’s and have been attempting to pull information from utube ( Standing Stone Kennels) but my lack of consistency has found me with a 7month old Brittany that I desperately need help with. I know I have failed at the obedience training and need to start over. After listening to your podcast and reading reviews I am fixing to pull the trigger on your online training course. My recall stinks and the last time I took him in the field it took me 20 minutes to catch him. I’m not a cussing man but……….. I just wanted to reach out and maybe have you give me a push to go ahead and purchase the coarse.
