Gundog Trainer in Banbury Area

[Flosii]

Hello all,

I am looking for a gundog trainer local to Banbury. I wondered if anyone had any recomendations.

Thanks in advance

For what type of dog? Lab? Pinger? HPR?

 

[Flosii]

A cocker Spag bol. at the moment he is only 14 weeks so want someone who can help me from the very start we have sit and leave. the rest I feel is selective hearing just like his mother.

I don't know which typo is funniest in this thread!!

 

[Flosii]

If it is the spag bol comment, it wasn't a typo. Just affectionate nickname for our assortment of springers and cockers

 

[CorvusCorax]

Whoops! Oh well, GGD's Pinger is still pretty funny - hope you find someone

Sorry to disappoint CC but 'pinger' is a slightly derogatory term (in the nicest possible of ways!) that a lot of shooting people use for springers; similarly 'slabs' are labs! Maybe it's just the circles I move in!

Damn!! Oh well, at least I've helped keep the thread bumped up!! Thanks for the giggle!

Oops! Oh yes, OP wanted a gundog trainer!

OP.....Try contacting Chiltern Gundog Club.....you'll have to google them as it's many years since I lived in that area, but they always used to do winter training for 'spanners'! (NB CC.....another of my euphemisms!) Also, there is a guy called Graham something or other down near the M40/M4 interchange who is really good - name escapes me at the moment but am seeing someone tonight who will remember. Will only be about 30 mins from you.

Ellie has the most well trained dogs I have seen in a long time and has trained at least one GSD as a gundog so spag bol shouldn't be too much of a challenge lol
