Training Gundogs as a Team: Success in the Shooting Field and Everyday Life

At Connected Canines, we explore the art of gundog training for all breeds, both in and out of the shooting field. From building strong partnerships based on trust and cooperation to mastering essential skills like retrieving, flushing, and scent work, our blog offers practical advice and insights. Whether you’re working with a spaniel, retriever, or any other breed, our focus is on positive reinforcement and creating a balanced, responsive, and fulfilled gundog—ready to excel in the field or thrive in everyday life.
