Training Days
|
Southern Colorado HRC begins club training days early in February every year and continues through the end of the May. There will be training every weekend rain or shine with the exception of holidays.
Club members will help teach you to train your retriever. It takes work on your part, both at training days and during the week. If you do not have a few minutes a day to work your dog, you may want to send your dog to a professional trainer. While there are several members that have been doing this for over thirty years, we are amateurs with our own dogs. |
ObedienceNo one wants to hunt with a dog that is running around and out of control. Considerable time is spent setting the foundation of steadiness. Sit, stay and come are the most important things you can teach your pup. We train to control our retrievers in very challenging situations.
|
MarksRetrievers are born to retrieve. Through drills and exercises we help you train your dog to be the best that they can be. We change cover, terrain, and items of suction to teach how to mark better and be more consistent.

HandlingBlind retrieves require the dog and handler to work as team to navigate to a fall unseen by the dog. Using a whistle and hand signals to your control your dog to quickly get to the bird. We train drills to help you and your dog to work as a team running blinds.
