Springer/Setter

[firstdog]

Do you know of obedience/hunting training in the Bagley,MN area? I have an English springer and English setter. I got the springer back in August (first dog ever)and I got the Setter in February, both are rescued dogs. The springer will pay attention to me and listen for the most part, he can walk off lead without me having to worry too much. The Setter on the other hand is so focused on birds and sounds that you cannot get through to her. This can be good and bad. Good that she has such focus but bad because it could/would create dangerous situations. I cannot even get my setter to sit, I have tried 5 different ways of sit training and nothing works, She either tenses up or gets to hyper.

Sorry for the excess story, I guess I am still just wondering about somewhere to train.

Any ideas would be great.

I would get in touch with FCSpringer guy - who visits here. He's from "up north" and trains, plus he has a lot of contacts.

How do I get in touch with FCSpringer guy?

[FCspringer]

That would be me. Are you looking to train with us or pay someone.

[firstdog]

I am open to both. Depends on distance,time and money. I would prefer to be part of it myself so I can understand the process better and continue my and my dogs learning.
