All Breed Obedience Training
Our Obedience Course for most breeds takes about 6-8 weeks. Your dog can start as early as six months of age or older. If you have a retriever or a dog that likes to retrieve we recommend our obedience with retrieving program.
Your dog will learn to sit, heel, (walk at side without pulling on leash), here (come when called) and kennel, (go into kennel, crate, vehicle, boat etc). As well as confidence and dealing with distractions (other dogs, cars, people, etc.) Also in obedience training, your dog will learn manners, not to jump on people and how to act during play time and work time. We can also tailor training to fit with you, your family and your four legged friend.
There is truly peace of mind when your dog is obedient and you enjoy their company instead of worrying if you can control them. After your dog goes home from obedience training there is never a charge for one on one visits for follow up questions. Available at both locations one in Northern California, located in Sutter and one in Southwest Montana, located in Twin Bridges. The cost of Obedience Training is $975 per month and includes all boarding, food, etc.

As well as confidence and dealing with distractions (other dogs, cars, people, etc). Plus he will be introduced to proper retrieving, and different field situations along with being obedient when performing those tasks.
This course is also a great option for the upland bird hunter. It is essentially the gundog course without the force training and is a great option for pointers. (There are also many upland hunters like to have their dog force broken, and that would be under our gundog course--see below).

Gun Dog Training
|
Gundog Training can start as early as 6-8 months and will take approximately 4 months. During this phase commands are taught, reinforced and then put together to make an obedient family companion and gun dog, both for duck and upland hunting. Every dog trains differently and will learn at different paces. Dustin Retrievers we will be very sensitive to your dog’s personality and needs. In gun dog training we seldom use the electronic collar, unless the owner already has one. We want to thoroughly teach the commands before enforcing them with the electronic collar.
The cost of Gun Dog training is $975 per month and includes all boarding, food, birds etc. Available at both locations one in Northern California, located in Sutter and one in South West Montana, located in Twin Bridges. After your dog goes home from Gun Dog Training there is never a charge for one on one visits or follow up questions. We will do everything we can to help you feel confident about the knowledge you need to work with your dog in the field. It is truly a beautiful sight to see a retriever that has been properly trained to do what he loves in the field. Questions, give us a call. |
