Hunt Test Training
Competing your retriever in AKC, UKC, or APLA hunt tests is a great way to grow and improve your retriever’s hunting skills and have fun too!
Our Hunt Test training develops your dog’s natural desire and potential. Because each dog learns at his own pace, program times are approximate only.
Junior Hunter, Started, Certified Pointer
Program length: 3 months
This is a great start into the retriever competition world. Many dogs start out at the Junior Hunter, Started, or Certified Pointer levels. Many of the owners, as well as the dogs, enjoy it so much that they choose to keep advancing onto Senior/Seasoned and even Master/Finished level.
Upon completion, your dog will be able to do single marks on land and water out to 100 yards, be steady on lead, and deliver to hand. Live birds are shot over
your dog and a wide variety of competition-style marking scenarios are practiced.
If you pursue the APLA events, your dog will hold point on the birds as well.
Senior, Seasoned, Advanced Pointer
Program length: 4 months minimum
Prerequisite: Completion of Junior/Started/CPR program, our Basic Waterfowl program, or equivalent
Upon completion of this hunt test training, your dog will be ready to retrieve double land and water marks, perform land and water blind retrieves outside of marks, honor, and understand diversion shots. He/she will also be steady off-lead.
Master, Finished, Grand Master Pointer
Program length: dependent on previous training and the dog’s ability
Prerequisite: Junior/Started and Senior/Seasoned programs or equivalent
This program is not for all dogs as it requires a dog with a strong desire, a high level of trainability, perseverance, brains, and a good working attitude. This is an ongoing training program. Time length depends on the dog’s ability and previous training.
During this training, your retriever’s skills are honed and stretched. They are trained to be comfortable with triple marks out to 150 yards, blinds in between marks, walkups, honoring, diversion shots, and diversion birds. We also focus strongly on line manners, the result is an impressive and responsive competitor and hunting companion,
