    Training of my 9 month springer seems to be coming together..she;s walking to heel, retreiving to hand, steady to throwen dummy, quartering nicely, dropping to shot (starter pistol), will retreive from water and will return, turn and drop to whistle....todays session was a great one.......this is my first gundog and brings me much satisfaction to see the fruits of my training sessions......she's a great pup.....I have not rushed the training but she seems to pick things up v fast....I really think I got lucky with this pup....be heart broken if anything happened to her ...can't wait till Nov!!!!!!!!!!!

    that's so typical of the springers :) head up looking at you waiting for the command, ready to give their life for you. I love Springer spaniels !
