Champion field trialer on spaniels, retrieving, puppy shopping and development, training for performance

From the floor of Pheasant Fest, field trialer Jordan Horak shares his thoughts on puppy development as a breeder of champion flushing dogs. Jordan won the AKC sanctioned Cocker Spaniel Field Trial Nationals in 2018 and has the experience and insights to help us, from finding the right pup for you, to developing the very young dog, he's got some very specific methods. We'll talk retrieving, teaching "gun range,"recall, the importance of paying a dog for their "work," and what a young dog considers a good payday.  Jordan is also the developer of the Cato Board - an improved version of "place boards," so we'll get insights into how he uses them and we can too.
