Fischer's Kennels & Hunt Club, Inc. offers basic and intermediate through advanced training. We encourage owner participation at all levels and also encourage dogs to return annually for refresher courses and physical conditioning.

Basic Training Program

We define "basic training" as the minimum amount of training your dog should have before taking it to the field. At this level, dogs are introduced to basic obedience as well as electric collar conditioning using low level stimulation designed to enhance your dogs behavior. For all electric collar training, we use and recommend Dogtra Remote Training collars. During basic training, dogs are exposed to guns, birds, boats, decoys, and water.

Intermediate/Advanced Training Program

The intermediate/advanced level training is designed to follow the basic training program. Concentrated obedience work, along with force fetching and steady to retrieve, is the focus at this stage. We also start beginning lining drills and pattern work for handling. Tracking game and quartering is also emphasized for upland hunting and cripple finding. The advanced training sessions focus on more pattern work for handling and eventually blind-retrieves along with multiple marked retrieves. To enhance your dog's marking ability, we use the Etch-marc Remote Launcher System.
