Springer Spaniel Trainer

    I'm sure this has come up before, but can anybody suggest a good dog trainer for a Springer Spaniel?

    I am looking to send one of my dogs to a professional trainer. I believe the dog lacks confidence, so i want a trainer that will work patiently with him as opposed to being hard / tough on him.

    Thanks

    Brace

    If I were you I would seek advice from a lad experienced in training springers. It will be for the best if you work with your dog under the advice of someone more experienced rather than have a stranger try and fix him. It will also help strengthen your relationship with the dog.

    What age is the dog & what do you want him trained for? Fur, feather or field trial?
