Quincegrove Working English Springers
We are a small kennel of health tested working and trialling English Springer Spaniels breeding for ability, type, temperament, and health.
I made this lovely photobook to display some wonderful photos taken by my friend Ray Hood, and a few others from more recent tests and training days.www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063689136496
"What is she making me do now?"Treason is at puppy agility training. The puppies learn to step onto, into, and over a variety of things as well as exercises that help build core strength. I like these classes for building confidence and problem solving abilities.I have used agility training with several of my dogs when I've hit a wall with their gundog work and it has helped our bond each time.
Treason has been a little keen to retrieve this week, so we are working on her obedience. Yesterday, we started with heelwork around dummies and Secret. Next we did recalls between the dummies and Secret. Finally we alternated retrieved between Secret and Treason. I want the enthusiasm... just a little more control!
Dogging-in.Hard work for the Quincegrove crew and friends making sure the pheasants go safely to bed.
Cafferty on a retrieve today. Reality check... today was not a great day. Neither dog in the sort of performance they are capable of. Oh well. The bacon rolls and post test cake were worth getting up for!
