| Puppy Head Start During this time the pup will be introduced to water, birds, gun shots, boats, decoys, other dogs, and socialized around people. Pups will be encouraged to develop a strong foundation to become a well rounded gun dog. |
| Gun Dog Training During this time your retriever will be taught basic obedience commands, conditioned to an electronic collar, and will be taught to sit and come on whistle. Your retriever will be able to sit steady to shot and mark a bird on land or water. Your retriever will be Force Fetched in order to teach them to fetch on command and deliver to hand. |
