Winner’s class with Kat
I made my debut in the Winner’s class for Spaniels the other day. With me was my teacher, the Cocker Spaniel Kat. She’s my bonus dog this autumn. Her owner has a few too many dogs and her extra family lives close to me, and since they don’t hunt or train their dogs I...Tassla’s First Trial Of The Season
I wanted to share the story of Tassla’s first trial of last season with you, so here goes 🙂 Tassla is in Novice, which is the class you can enter if you have passed the water trial.

What a day! I’m emotionally drained. That handling a Spaniel can be this exhausting! But today, Tassla and I had our best trial so far! We had two runs.

We’ve added more films where you can both SEE what hunting, blind...Seeker’s Third Cold Game Trial – let’s test drive the analysis!
A great many things worked well at the last trial, but unfortunately I think that all the self-control that the heeling required made it too hard for him to keep himself together when handling the game. This time the plan was to see how he would handle the game if I...When One Hits the Breaks But Should Be Going All In
When Quling w as five months old, he discovered the meaning of life. Over night, this very energetic and pretty wild puppy that I still walked around our neighbourhood off leash, turned into a complete hunting maniac.
