training day

gcspringer

hey everyone,new to boards.ie

just inquiring to see if anyone would be up for a day out with the dogs anytime during a weekend, the usual suspects always seem busy with work and stuff.
i have a springer bitch fully trained to whistle, drop to shot etc that im delighted with, and also one of her pups which i kept back after breeding. the pup just needs loads of socializing with other dogs atm , perfectly fine with people just a little nervous around other dogs. shes nearly the 6 months and retrieving pheasant wings etc to hand and showing a nice bit of interest when i take her out for a run, only time will tell i guess.
im in the cork area not far from douglas and unfortunately unable to drive at the moment but willing to meet up if anyone was interested.
thanks in advance lads

I think cork fieldtrial ass is holding a 2day training weekend in march. I have no date yet but i will post it up when i get word. Frank Maunsell is usually the man that demonstrates on the day. Worth going as you would be impressed with the way he can handle a spaniel.

Can't beat a good dog . Ya he's knows his stuff alright . I'm hoping the pup now will turn out some way like her mother, it's a pure lottery tho . Is it just the one you have or have you kennels full ? ha
