Info on what was covered in the May 2025 Positive Gundog Training Conference page below. The conference looked at how we can make our training more effective by being able to communicate with our four legged partners clearly. To this end I gathered an array of speakers who are experts in their field, experts for all breeds types; and this year will will have some 'HPR, Setter and Pointer' specific training.
